Our Story | Hellman Chang

New American Elegance

Over the past decade, self-taught duo Daniel Hellman and Eric Chang have lead the industry in defining new American Luxury Furnishings. Known for their sleek, timeless and unique designs, the Hellman-Chang line offers little compromise for craftsmanship and expansive bespoke capabilities for the Interior Design trade. After helping establish and embody the “Brooklyn Renaissance” with their bench-made collection, the company has expanded its production into a new 32,000 square foot facility in Dawsonville, Georgia, where they are digging roots within the growing artisan American community.

Hellman maintains his role as the Operations Manager and Technical Designer, as Chang continues to lead a design team in Brooklyn as the Creative Director.

Hellman-Chang is distributed nationwide through designer showrooms.

Our Founders

Dan Hellman

Always known as a renaissance man, Daniel Hellman studied Classical Guitar Performance at Northwestern University’s School of Music. His love of fine arts, from opera to architecture, did not stop there, as he transitioned into formal studio fabrication training under some of New York’s most well known custom furniture builders. In his tenure, he single-handedly produced a wide array of pieces for many of New York’s A-list. His finely honed skill ensures the quality, beauty, and endurance of every Hellman-Chang piece.

Eric Chang

After helping startup a successful New York marketing agency, Eric Chang left and founded Hellman-Chang with life-long friend, Daniel Hellman. Together, they worked to grow their hobby into a budding business. Despite studying Finance and Marketing at NYU Stern’s School of Business, Chang explores his true passion for art and design by creating the lines of Hellman-Chang. Recognized as an artist his entire life, his innate skills in sketching, photography and bold design define the look and emotional themes of Hellman-Chang.
