Rachel Greene Bass

Contract Graphic Designer-Woodworker

Greenville, SC, USA
As a graphic designer I use my life experience as a wife, mother, nature explorer, woodworker, and lover of the written word to communicate within my work. I focus on layout driven design with a heavy use of text and handwritten/drawn elements. The enneagram 2 wing 1 in me will serve the design ask until it is right and do so organized and on time.

As a woodworker I craft along side my husband to bring you into nature or bring nature into your home. Our pieces invite time being spent soaking up nature outside with loved ones. The home decor we create help warm a room in your home to bring support and comfort. A comfort only nature can bring.

As a person I am a wife that both supports and pushes my husband to expand further and adores the way we are the most opposite of kindred spirits. I am a mother that encourages independent exploration and a hand held walk through the woods. I am a loyal friend that thrives on coffee dates discussing our world view or the deep brotherly love that Thor and Loki have.

Work Experience

The Mountain Seed

Co-Owner

The Mountain Seed is a woodworking company that creates pieces to bring you out into nature or brings nature into your home. Our furniture, home goods, storage, and decorative pieces are all created in our workshop with our two hands. We source our materials as often as possible from local sawmills, trees being fell already, salvaged goods, and thrifted locally. When you purchase an existing piece or have a custom piece made you are getting a family heirloom. A piece that will last the ages and enrich your home for the long haul. The Mountain Seed is a woodworking company honoring and supporting Nature.
