""No detail is too small for Britt and Damian Zunino to overlook. The couple behind New York–based Directory firm Studio DB immerse themselves in every project to ensure their interiors are every bit as comforting as they are elevated, being both family-friendly and buoyed by skilled craftspeople. Drawn Together reveals how Damian’s architectural training and Britt’s background in fashion yield intriguing juxtapositions, like vintage Vladimir Kagan chairs set underneath a glossy white ceiling in a 1920s Park Avenue apartment."" — AD PRO ""Partners in life and work, and parents of four, Britt and Damian of Studio DB create rooms that not only draw people in but draw them together. Playful yet sophisticated, comfortable yet functional, their interiors wisely intuit how families want to live, marrying styles while leaning on quality craftsmanship to address everyday needs. That’s what great design is all about—connecting people to one another. There is no better reflection of that than the couple’s own home, the same Manhattan loft where Damian grew up. Here they have created a place full of family history, bridging past and present while exercising the courage to make it their own. They understand that great rooms contain history and that those stories are continuously being written. Every Studio DB project is unique, informed by the needs and dreams of its inhabitants, many of them creatives themselves and repeat clients—the greatest stamp of approval. The firm’s work does not fit into one style, but the throughline is a palpable sense of joy."" — Alison Levasseur, Architectural Digest Global Interiors Garden Editor ""The married duo behind Studio DB brings a yin and yang polarity to their livable, lovable interiors. Britt Zunino is a former snowboard pro, now a champion of color and pattern. Her husband Damian is an architect as adept as modernism as he is at historic preservation. As their book Drawn Together so gorgeously shows, their work is an antidote to the soulless, hotel room-like ambiance that is far too common in the design world. With great stories on their projects, and stunning images of the homes they have transformed (or built from scratch), this book takes us on their journey in designing spaces where their clients—and yes, kids and pets included—can be their happiest selves."" — Ingrid Abramovitch, ELLE Decor Executive Editor ""Britt and Damian's designs are a masterclass in injecting personality into every space. Their work literally puts the fun in functional! Each interior feels playful, bright, unique, and deeply personal. Like the homes they create, this book flows straight from the heart."" — Jessica Romm Perez, The Expert Vice President of Partnerships
