Parker Sellers

Parker Sellers grew up in the Mad River Valley of Vermont, in a community where architects built their own homes and everyone around him was, in some sense, a student of design. His father David raised him that way — not just as a child, but as an apprentice, involving him in building projects, design classes, and a worldview where craft and beauty were inseparable from daily life.

He took a long detour through Hollywood. For 15 years, Parker worked as a 3D artist for feature films and commercials, visualizing environments, action sequences, and camera work before a single frame was shot. The tools were digital, but the underlying instinct was the same one his father had given him: how do you shape three-dimensional space into something that feels right?

Parker founded the Madsonian Design Group to realize an idea his father had long been nurturing — a studio where exceptional objects could finally be made, sold, and live in the world. His own designs reflect both sides of his background: the tactile, material sensibility of a Vermont workshop and the precision of someone who has spent years working in digital 3D space. His collaboration with architect Gregg Fleishman on the Tetrahedron Cube pendant light was the first product he brought to market under the Madsonian name.
