Buster + Punch, the home fashion brand redefining interior style, is now an official member of Be Original Americas, joining the fight to protect authentic design and challenge industry knockoffs.

LONDON, May 20, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Buster + Punch, the disruptive home fashion brand known for its bold, creative, and boundary-pushing approach to interior design, has become an official member of Be Original Americas, a non-profit organization dedicated to advocating for authentic design and combating counterfeit products within the design industry.

Buster + Punch is renowned for its daring, fashion-forward approach to home interiors—transforming everyday fittings like light switches, hardware, and lighting into statement pieces. The brand fuses London's subversive street culture with meticulous craftsmanship, using solid metals, precision detailing, and unexpected finishes like Smoked Bronze, Welders Black, and knurled textures to create products that are instantly recognizable. Their collections are celebrated not only for their functionality but for their distinct edge—each design telling a story of boldness, authenticity, and individuality.

"Design isn't just about how things look—it's about pushing boundaries and staying true to original ideas," Massimo Buster Minale, Founder of Buster + Punch

With a commitment to craftsmanship and originality, Buster + Punch has long been a leader in producing innovative, design-forward products. This partnership with Be Original Americas extends the brand's mission to preserve the value of creativity and original design in an era where mass replication has become increasingly widespread.

"Design isn't just about how things look—it's about pushing boundaries and staying true to original ideas," said Massimo Buster Minale, Founder of Buster + Punch. "Joining Be Original Americas is our way of standing with the designers and makers who innovate, create, and take risks. We're proud to support a movement that protects the value of authentic design and celebrates the hard work behind every original concept. In today's market, where counterfeits are everywhere, protecting creativity is more important than ever."

Be Original Americas works at the forefront of the movement to protect design integrity, partnering with U.S. Customs and Border Protection to stop counterfeits before they reach consumers—defending not only intellectual property, but also the economic foundation that supports American design jobs and innovation. Through this partnership, over 8,000 American jobs have been protected, $30.3 million worth of counterfeit goods seized, and 38 illegal shipments intercepted. Be Original also fosters a growing community of over 800 members, supporters, and followers who share best practices and strategies to protect and celebrate original design.

"As a brand, Buster + Punch has always stood for originality and craftsmanship, and partnering with Be Original Americas is a natural extension of that commitment," said David Schlocker, President of Buster + Punch. "This membership strengthens our ability to support designers and creatives, as well as the manufacturers who have invested and bring these products to market – as well as continue to pave the way for innovation in the industry. By standing up for original design, we're not just protecting intellectual property—we're protecting the future of creativity itself. Over the past several years we have observed several brands taking our signature designs and copying them, and these infringements have noticeably increased in 2024 into this year. Our global brand holds over 450 design patents and several technical patents, in which we unfortunately must also invest in protecting."

Buster + Punch's membership in Be Original Americas strengthens its position as a tastemaker in the interior design space and reinforces the brand's leadership in promoting creative integrity and design excellence. Together, Buster + Punch and Be Original Americas are advocating for a design future rooted in originality, where authentic voices are heard, protected, and celebrated.
