ABOUT US
OUR PHILADELPHIA STUDIO
Located in the historic Crane Arts building in Northern Liberties, Anther House is a studio dedicated to intentional design, craftsmanship, and the quiet beauty found in detail. Built in 1905 and now home to a vibrant arts community, the building’s open, light-filled studios provide an inspiring backdrop for our custom apparel work and community gatherings.
Anther House unites custom dressmaking, tailoring, and design services with a curated selection of in-house made merchandise and artisan-made goods. Whether you’re here for a fitting, a consultation, browsing our studio store, or attending a private event, the space invites you to slow down and engage with the creative process.
Rooted in the idea that beauty begins at the center—like the anther that sparks a flower into bloom—we build outward through observation, transformation, and craft. Founded in 2021 and officially established in 2022, Anther House evolved from immersive plant installations and nature-inspired apparel into a multidisciplinary fashion and design studio offering tailoring, custom dressmaking, design and branding consulting, sampling, sourcing, and production.
Each visit offers a glimpse into the artistry behind our work and the layered approach that defines Anther House.
