Philip Crangi and Darren Spaziani are the power couple of accessories design. They’re also hopelessly in love.

We have been together…

Three and a half years.

Best gift…

Darren: A gold railroad spike Philip forged himself.
Philip: Darren gave me a signed first edition of Christopher Isherwood’s Goodbye to Berlin for Christmas last year — it was the most thoughtful gift anyone has ever given me.

The first time I saw him, I thought…

Darren: “Trouble, but I can handle him!”
Philip: “He’s trouble! And very cute….”

What we like to do together…

Darren: I enjoy having lazy weekends. We’ve created an oasis in our apartment where we can really close ourselves off from the world and just potter around.
Philip: I love traveling with Darren — we’ve both always liked to travel and I think we do it really well together, which is lucky.

What we don’t like to do together…

Darren: I don’t like to argue which is good because we rarely do.
Philip: I agree!
