Having a vision is one thing. But it's what comes next—the risk-taking and recruiting, the sleepless nights and countless hours—that turn that dream into a reality.House Beautiful's 2020 Visionaries have done all that and then some, creating innovative brands and companies that will come to change the way we decorate.

Imagine a platform that could help designers bring their wildest design dreams to life—and to market—without unnecessary waste, risk, or overhead. Stumped? Gantri is using 3D-printing technology to do just that. “Many of our designers are already creating concepts for their followers on social media,” says CEO and founder Ian Yang, who launched the brand in 2016. These unique designs—inspired by badminton birdies, hot-air balloons, and geometric shapes—become sustainably made lamps at good prices. On the docket for this year: a bigger factory and new designers, products, and categories (floor lamps and sconces, oh my!).
