our design story

After over 10 years in the luxury design industry, Angela took the initiative to start her own business in 2014. As her firm took off and demand grew, Angela realized she needed a partner to take her company to the next level. This is where Danielle came into the picture, Angela and Danielle met by chance. They quickly realized they shared the same passion and love for design. With Danielle’s MBA and general business background, it became clear that these two were meant and ready to work together. From there, Studio Onyx was born.
