omana Siddiqui founded Pences Design Studio in 2003 as
a custom stationery company. Sensing a growing need for
products for underrepresented holidays, Siddiqui set out to
create pieces for celebrations such as Ramadan and Eid without
falling into cultural stereotypes.
J
In 2011, Siddiqui founded modernEID, answering the call for
modern gift, home goods and partyware that creates new traditions
for Muslim-American families. Her designs are celebratory, modern
and stylish while avoiding stereotypical imagery often associated
with Muslim holidays.
What is the mission of modernEID?
Our mission since 2011 has been to help create Ramadan/Eid
traditions that were inclusive for people from all cultural backgrounds
while avoiding cultural stereotypes. This initial motivation has now
blossomed into a brand that celebrates the modern home and all
celebrations - no matter the occasion.
We create with an ethical conscience. We think how and where
products are made matters. We pride ourselves on making goods
ethically and responsibly, using local suppliers and family-owned
businesses as our production partners.
Our products are always our original designs - never a copy. We
focus on emerging trends and products made using quality materials
designed to last. We believe in quality over quantity, always.
How would you describe your design style and products?
I love studying emerging trends in the fashion and décor space and
will often incorporate that into my designs. My style is modern and
contemporary, with a hint of an upcoming trend.
When it came to designing for modernEID, I didn't think
everything made for the Muslim consumer necessarily needed to
have a palm tree/camel/gilding on it to be relevant. Moreover, so
many American Muslims are from such diverse cultures. And while
my personal ethnic heritage is Lebanese, I strongly felt that it was
limiting that Muslim products should only cater to those of Middle
Eastern backgrounds or use stereotypical imagery - this excludes,
for example, Asian, Latino and African cultures that are part of the
