Stockist // Otherwild
BUNCH magazine is now available at Otherwild. Owners Marisa Suárez-Orozco and Rachel Berksand shared with us the story behind their store.
Name: Otherwild
Established: 2012
Location: Echo Park (Los Angeles, California)
How did you two develop the idea for the shop?
When we met we were very excited that we were both Graphic Designers who were very involved in the Fine Art world. Marisa had always dreamed of opening a store, and we got together to discuss starting a Graphic Design studio and Rachel suggested we fuse the two ideas together. We knew so many talented artists and designers who made amazing things, why not showcase their work within our own workspace?
How would you describe the atmosphere you’ve created?
Wild, ethereal, magic, earthy, other.
What is the Otherwild customer like?

What events are you most excited for this coming spring & summer?
