Steppe is a design studio and furniture shop in Windsor Terrace, Brooklyn. 

Miles is a former journalist who spent more than a decade leading investigations into the gun industry. Stefan is an architect and designer with experience working on everything from skyscrapers to museum exhibits. We founded Steppe in 2024 after a chance encounter in our shared neighborhood of Windsor Terrace led to a business idea.

Together, our backgrounds help us deliver spaces that prioritize narrative and feel intentional and intuitive — where beauty is rooted in logic, comfort, and long-term usability. We'd describe our style as grounded, vibrant, and vintage-forward.

We provide a range of interior design services, from hourly consulting to full-service design and construction coordination. In addition to services, we offer a curated collection of vintage (and some new) furniture, lighting, and home decor via our website and in-person at our studio.
