For more than two decades, AvroKO has pushed the boundaries of what it means to be a design firm. Founded by longtime friends Greg Bradshaw, Adam Farmerie, Kristina O’Neal, and William Harris, the multidisciplinary studio has earned a reputation for its richly layered interiors, holistic approach, and narrative-driven process.
From launching self-propelled projects like Ghost Donkey and Host on Howard to building enduring relationships with clients like 1 Hotels, AvroKO has remained steadfast in its desire to create spaces with soul.
During a keynote conversation at HD Expo + Conference this May, they opened up about their origins as university friends, the power of collaboration, their “magic paper” annual summits, and the lessons learned over 25 years of running a design-driven, people-first business.
