Lenny Kravitz founded Kravitz Design Inc., in 2003, as a way to transform his eclectic taste and lifestyle into innovative, unique, and dynamic design solutions for both commercial and residential projects. Here, Life+Times explores a side to the musician that is rarely seen or documented.

Design has always been a great interest of mine. Even as a child, it was very important as to how my room was arranged and what items were in it. When I started having my own homes, I found that many of the furnishings and accessories that I was envisioning for the space did not exist. So I began to make them myself. As I got deeper into that practice, I became addicted to producing pieces that were in my head. Years later, after doing several of my own homes, I realized that I needed to stop and focus on trying to design for other people. Kravitz Design was started shortly thereafter. Something that was a personal passion has now grown into a company that is organically expanding. – Lenny Kravitz
