NAN was founded by siblings Benjamin Font and Lindsey Font-Fife in 2024, and takes its name from their grandmother, Vivian Geraldine Cox, who was a realtor and interior designer known lovingly to her grandkids as NAN.
Partnering with Design Director Alexa Miramontes, the company expanded into NAN Collective: a boutique full service design resource with vintage and contemporary collections by featured artists across the US.
At once warm and familiar, NAN welcomes you home. Where the past co-exists with the present in harmony, and where beauty can be appreciated without pretension.
We love this stuff. And we hope you do too.
Welcome home.

BENJAMIN FONT
Creative Director/Co-Founder // Los Angeles, CA
BENJAMIN FONT is an award winning writer/director on The ISA’s Top 25 Development Slate and the Creative Director/Co-Founder of NAN Collective. With over a decade of experience running high end showrooms in Los Angeles – most recently for Galerie Half founding partner Cliff Fong at his new outdoor inspired showroom Faire du Vert – Font first began merging his passions for film and design in a series for Hanna Li Interiors called Design Through Storytelling. It’s this unique blend of disciplines that informs Font’s creative vision for NAN Collective, and his personal experience and innate sensibilities as a self-taught artist that shape his approach to the collaborations at NAN Collective’s core.
LINDSEY FONT-FIFE majored in Latin American Studies with a minor in art and worked for several years as an accomplished software engineer before deciding to change gears and pursue her passion for interior design full time as the Founder of her company, Font-Fife Creative, and the Co-Founder of NAN Collective.
Though always having been drawn to interior design, antiques, and creating – often designing and renovating her Salt Lake City home with her husband, Nathan, a financial software engineer and talented woodworker, sewing her own draperies, and fabricating custom furniture that she and Nathan build together – Font-Fife credits the arrival of her son, Warren, as the inspiration to reevaluate the priorities in her work life, noting that sacrificing time with her family could only be justified by work that she truly loved. And for her, that work was design.
“Each project is a process of discovery and self-reflection that is approached mindfully to create a space that is perfectly tailored to the client's functional needs and their unique aesthetics. A space that you can walk into and feel at home.”
