Tiffany Lusteg is an installation artist from California. When graduating from college, she discovered an interest in weaving and fiber art, which led her to start sharing her work online and host weaving workshops.

Tiffany soon began receiving requests for backdrops from clients and, with the help of Aaron’s woodworking skills, founded the spatial design and fabrication business, Fomme.

Her client list includes The Ritz-Carlton, NBCUniversal, as well as The Hilton and Marriott Hotels. She also shares her work with over 30K followers on Instagram and, more recently, has begun experimenting with sculpture.
