The DDB's Student Design Day-goers were all ears at Gracie Studio's presentation on the company's history, not to mention a lesson on Chinese and Japanese antiques and hand-painted scenic wallpapers. Jennifer Gracie and Mike Gracie, co-owners of the family-owned company, walked students through the past to what their family has spent decades selling.
Mike Gacie, principal of the fourth-generation, family-owned Gracie Studio, shared the story behind the brand and gave students a first-hand view on the finest hand-crafted works in décor.
"The turnout here on Student Day was huge, and it's great to know how impressive the future of design is," said Mike. "Jen gave an in-depth overview of Japanese and Chinese antiques, and the response was excellent. Students asked great questions and really kept the conversation going with their curiosity."
"It's always wonderful to spend time with students who are pursuing the industry that you're in," said Jen. "I had a lot of fun giving the presentation to them and sharing Gracie's story with new visitors in the showroom who may soon be avid clients!"
Stay tuned for more on Gracie's newly designed website that we can't wait to share.
