All of our designs are done with intention, blending beauty and function to create work that not only stands out, but speaks clearly in the authentic voice of each client’s brand.
WHO WE ARE
Our journey began in Seattle, WA. We had no idea that after a chance meeting at a Seattle pizzeria that we would eventually play in rock bands together and later find love and travel south to put down roots on a small farm shared with pot-bellied pigs and dogs.
We’ve always had a bit of wanderlust in our veins, and between the two of us, we’ve roamed through more than 30 states. One especially memorable road trip swept them from the jazz-soaked streets of New Orleans, through the picturesque towns of Mississippi and Tennessee, and eventually into the welcoming arms of North Carolina.
The South cast its spell on them. The grand old oak trees felt like ancient friends, especially after years surrounded by the towering pines of the Northwest. That trip stole our hearts and from that moment on, we knew: North Carolina wasn’t just a stop on the map, it was home waiting to happen.
Years passed and we decided to make it official, so in 2013 we crammed everything that we could manage to fit into a small moving truck and with the windows down and playlist on repeat, made our way across the country towards North Carolina.
We’ve shared countless aspirations over the years and between the two of us, we’ve dabbled, dove headfirst, and delighted in everything from woodworking and mixed-media arts to interior design and breathing new life into tired old buildings. It just so happens we also happily suffer from a lifelong case of creative curiosity and an eye for design, be it photography, videography, graphic design, or other medium. We believe that design shouldn't be static; it should provide an experience. To us good design should stir something, tell a story, and stand the test of time. A bit like the historical towns that make up this region.
These days, we call the town of Milton, NC home, where we’re honored to play a small part in bringing fresh life to a once-forgotten gem of a community. Chris currently serves as president of the Milton Merchants Association with a heart for helping local businesses thrive. And while Milton is home, our expertise extends well beyond Milton, with clients spanning from Chicago to Seattle.
