The Beginnings of Dakota Jackson: Dakota Jackson is both an American designer and an American manufacturer of luxury furniture. Before making his foray into furniture design, Dakota Jackson used to be a performer and a dancer in the 1970s, associated with the Laura Dean and Tricia Brown companies. These artistic experiences, coupled with a family background on performing and magic, gave Mr. Jackson a unique aesthetic advantage and an unusual approach to discipline. He started by exhibiting his innovative furniture collections in SoHo galleries in New York during the seventies. Many of his pieces were known to possess unexpected elements, such as secret compartments. Eventually, major art museums took note of his non-conformist approach to design, commissioning him for collaborative work on several projects.  Dakota Jackson has worked with many notable clients, including David Yurman, a jewelry designer, for his boutique at Madison Avenue and the Pacific Design Center in L.A., collaborating with architect Peter Eisenman. He has also worked on other noteworthy projects such as the multi-tasking center for the Kip's Bay Boys' and Girls' Club Decorator Show House and the Temple Jeremiah project in Illinois where he designed an ark and a chapel. Today the furniture house operates two factories in New York, while the products are distributed through showrooms all over the country.
