Artist-Created Decor
For rooms that refuse to be boring.
why we exist
Most home decor is designed to be safe.
We think that’s a missed opportunity.
Your home should feel personal, expressive, and alive.
SmithHönig exists to help you live more colorfully—starting with one bold choice.
Not Curated. Created.
We’re artists and designers.
Every SmithHönig pattern is developed from original artwork and translated into richly layered designs that mix easily, age beautifully, and never feel flat. Our layered color palettes do the heavy lifting—so you don’t have to second-guess every choice.
What makes us different:
Original designs you won’t find anywhere else. Artist-driven patterns, not mass-market repeats. Small-batch production for quality and character. Vegan-friendly luxury materials. Color-forward palettes that make mixing easy

Melanie Hönig
Artist, Pattern Maker

what we make
and why it matters
SmithHönig creates original, color-rich home decor designed to turn rooms into statements—and houses into deeply personal places.
Every pillow, pattern, and piece begins as original artwork. Not sourced. Not trend-chased. Designed in-house by artists who believe your home should feel as alive, layered, and expressive as you are.
If beige leaves you cold, you’re in the right place.
