Durham

The Old has Gone and The New has Come (IYKYK). One week from today, the studio turns 10 - ‘A Decade of Durham’. There’s a lot of words and even more feelings to describe what Durham was, is, and will be – good, bad, beautiful, and disastrous. Everything and nothing has changed since blindly building the business from megabus rides, to hotel rooms, to a dining room table, to a small side office in my father-in-laws church, to the first 750sf ‘street studio’, then to the 16,000sf Madison Ave building we’re currently in now. But that’s just space to fill an interior design passion, not the people that make Durham as purposeful and passionate as it is. As we approach 10, what do you want to see more of, share more of, say more of? At end of the day, the only reason The D is a decade is because of people, not projects, and we’re grateful to have plenty of both, personally and professionally. So let’s open up this circle pit of Work/Vice Balance. Over the next few we’ll share the who, what, why, and otherwise of a Studio named Durham because every once and awhile, it’s cool to look in the rear view to see where you’ve come from, to remind you of where you’re going. - Austin 🙏🏻
