Soaps, bath soaks and essential oils inspired by the “healing power of nature” 🌿✨
Homework was started by Stephanie Hannington-Suen, a former graphic designer and art director based in London. After years of working in design studios across the capital, she began to feel herself burning out: the long hours and difficult clients, teamed with the blurring boundaries between work and home time, saw her grow increasingly despondent. “I would do in-house design work for some big brands that weren’t really aligned to my beliefs,” she recalls.
This fascination with skincare stemmed from her parents, who ran an acupuncture and herbal medicine clinic when she was growing up. Hannington-Suen began to revisit their methods, which were rooted in traditional Chinese medicine and the power of plants. “The whole philosophy of TCM is about finding balance,” she says. This includes mental and emotional balance, as well as physical and spiritual.
All the products are formulated and manufactured in south-east London, by hand, at the Homework studio. To stick to their sustainability principles, and to fight the trend for overconsumption, Hannington-Suen opens up the space and offers workshops to the public so they can see how the products are made – and so they can learn to formulate the products for themselves. Currently, this comes in the form of a natural perfume oil workshop, but she has plans to expand the program in the future.
