Shiza Shahid immigrated from Pakistan to the U.S. to study at Stanford University. Overwhelmed with kitchen clutter and single-purpose cookery tools, Shahid created Our Place, a brand that focuses on designing multifunctional, design-forward, healthy, and sustainable products.

Shahid celebrates cultural diversity through her product range, such as cookware sets for occasions like Diwali, and uses innovative design to minimize the need for excessive cookware. For instance, the Always Pan can be used to make soup or eggs.
