Cox London boldly walks the line between art and design
Chris and Nicola Cox met as young sculptors, fell in love, and eventually got married—but it wasn’t until 2004 that their creative partnership evolved into a business. Since then, Cox London has grown dramatically: Today, the two lead a team of more than 100, and their studio is known for crafting bold, sculptural pieces that often take cues from nature—like a 12-foot-tall iron and brass chandelier shaped like an explosion of magnolia blossoms.On this episode of the podcast, they speak with host Dennis Scully about the joys and challenges of working together as a couple, their efforts to support the next generation of artisans, and how they’ve navigated the transition from artists to entrepreneurs.This episode is sponsored by LoloiLINKSCox London

From Athens to Ann Arbor–how Ramsay Nye turned distance into a perfect partnership
Krista Nye Nicholas and Tami Ramsay are the founders of Ramsay Nye, an interior design firm operating out of Athens, Georgia, and Ann Arbor, Michigan.
