Mexico-raised, Brooklyn-based, Melissa Constandse of Open Sea Design Co. is very much a global citizen. It’s a feeling she's been imbued with since she was a young girl, when every year her family would set off on weeks-long trips to different locations across the world.
As getting away to lands both near and far hasn’t been the easiest this year, we did the next best thing and asked Melissa to recount some of her adventures – basking in the wanderlust of her stories and finding out how her travels inspire her collections.
