WORDS FROM THE FUTURE KEPT
WHO WE ARE.
We are Jeska & Dean Hearne, husband & wife, adventure seekers, photographers, the owners of two mischievous cats, and creators of The Future Kept.
Since 2014 The Future Kept has been part of a new adventure on our journey through life together, as a duo our backgrounds and almost 20 years of experience is varied, we are photographers and stylists, but have also collaborated and worked in the fields of interior, graphic and product design, writing, and brand development.
The Future Kept started with a fascination and desire that we've both had for a long time, to seek out beautiful and useful items for life and the home that are made with love, thoughtfulness and detail. Items with timeless qualities created by people with a passion for what they do, and a care for the future of the world we live in.
Our primary goal with The Future Kept is to inspire more people to think carefully about the items they have in their lives, by putting together a collection of beautifully designed handmade products from honest origins all with a story to tell.
WHAT WE DO.
The Future Kept is a collection of consciously crafted, responsibly and ethically sourced products for your home, and living a more eco-friendly sustainable lifestyle.
Nestled on the south coast of England, we design and collaborate with independent designers, makers and artisans who are creating products that are better for our world, becoming part of your life story, forming an intimacy between you and your belongings, to cherish and keep.
We provide quality goods with an honest provenance that we use in our day-to-day lives, items made to last that will not fuel the throwaway nature of the modern world, heirlooms of the future. We hope to inspire a curiosity and desire within people to make more sustainable and ethical choices.
Creating and seeking beautifully considered, functional items for others to enjoy is our passion, by sharing these items that we celebrate, we aim to connect and form relationships with like-minded folk, whilst having a positive impact on the environment.
WHAT WE BELIEVE.
Paired For Life.
We seek out items that will become part of the story of your life while maintaining high standards of ethical sourcing. Items with a classic design that can live on in your family forever to be loved, cherished and kept.
Buy Less, Buy Better.A strange message for a shop to give, you may be thinking, but we want to promote a lifestyle of appreciating and cherishing the items you choose to have in life, keeping them to pass down through generations and holding onto them for as long as possible. When choosing consumable products that are not designed to last a lifetime, we look for items that are made with love and care and do not harm the environment.
The Perfection Of Imperfection.
Small run, handmade, artisan and vintage products offer a beauty that is tactile and to be celebrated. Unique markings on products like this can show the makers touch, or the wear of time making each piece unique.
Quality Products.
Some people put a lot more thought, time and love into the items they create. We spend our time carefully seeking and developing products that fit a few simple criteria, they need to be durable, quality made with a simplistic, sustainable and ethical approach. Products that stand the test of time, that will age well, using the best materials and are not destined to end up in a landfill.
Working Together.
We support the love and energy put into a product by it’s creator, the product we carry is from people who share our vision of striving for more responsible consumerism and care about the world we live in.
Giving.
We believe in giving; We are proud to be part of the 1% for the Planet global movement and have committed to give 1% of all sales directly to environmental not for profit groups whose focus is the protection, preservation and restoration of our planet. This means every time you purchase from us, 1% of the total value of your order goes directly to help an environmental cause.
