Nicole Runde
Baltimore-based Nicole Runde graduated from the Savannah College of Art and Design with a BFA in furniture design and Summa Cum Laude honors. Her sunny work with glass and lighting is sure to enliven any room, thanks to spots of brilliant color. And the designer’s upbeat personality shines through her work. As Runde describes it, she aims to inject “refreshing optimism into the cynical world through engaging and unexpected use of form, materials and color.” Refreshing indeed.
