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. What began as a comment on Pinterest evolved into one of the industry's most successful long-distance partnerships. Over the past decade, they've built a thriving design practice as well as a multiline showroom business, Cloth & Kind, which represents artisanal textile lines, lighting and furnishings across twelve Midwestern states. Their recent decision to rebrand their design firm under their own names—while keeping Cloth & Kind for the showroom—marks a new chapter in their evolution.
On this episode of the podcast they speak with host Dennis Scully about how distance became the secret ingredient to their partnership’s success; how running a multiline showroom sharpens their design practice; and how an “eat, pray, love” moment taught them exactly what business they didn’t want to be in.
