Madilyn has always believed that quality design has the power to change lives. Previously an architectural designer specializing in psychiatric spaces, Madilyn spent years designing environments with a singular belief: that thoughtful form can change how people act and feel. She approached every floor plan with that intention — understanding load-bearing structure, human circulation, and the way light moves through a space. When she encountered a handbag supplier in London whose craftsmanship aligned with her values, she applied that same design language to the bag: elevating the silhouette, refining the geometry, and adding the signature structural knot that would become ABC's defining detail.

Design, at its best, makes our lives better. That is what Madilyn has always built; The original knot bag is made to seamlessly wear 3 ways with ultimate comfort, the clutch is designed for multi-purpose use, and the tote is soft and seamless to roll up for packing on the go.
