WELCOME!
Welcome to 8Dog Design Studio — I’m Andrea, the designer and founder behind the brand (with a little supervision from my rescue pups).
I live in the western suburbs of Minneapolis, where you’ll usually find me cooking for friends, tending the garden, reading design books, or dreaming up the next collection.
By day, I work in the design industry alongside three incredible women in a women-owned business, creating elevated outdoor spaces for high-end multi-family properties. I specialize in color stories — layering fabric, texture, and pattern to create cohesive environments that feel thoughtful and intentional.
8Dog was born from that same love of design.
What began as a creative outlet has evolved into a curated collection of personalized pieces for the home — from keepsake gifts to everyday design details. My aesthetic blends clean, modern structure with expressive pattern and subtle artistic influence. Each collection is created with cohesion in mind, so your pieces feel considered — not random.
Many items can be personalized, allowing you to create something meaningful and uniquely yours. I care deeply about quality, presentation, and customer experience — and I’m always just a message away if you need assistance.
My goal is simple: to design pieces that help you create spaces and moments that feel warm, intentional, and distinctly personal.
Thank you for being here and supporting a small, woman-owned business.
— Andrea
