Unison Design Studio

We’re growing.

At Unison, we believe the best work comes from curious people who care deeply about design, relationships, and the experience of others. We’re intentionally collaborative, hands-on, and invested in creating places with meaning.

If you’re thoughtful, motivated, and excited by the idea of shaping work alongside a small, engaged team, we’d love to connect.

FriYAY Announcement!

Exciting things to celebrate — we’re thrilled to announce a new addition to the Unison team. Please give a warm welcome to Katelynn Vasey! 👏

Katelynn brings a thoughtful approach to her work and a natural curiosity for how people experience space. She asks good questions, pays attention to what matters, and cares about getting it right — the kind of mindset that fits naturally into how we work at Unison.

As we continue shaping our practice, every addition to the team matters. Katelynn strengthens how we think, collaborate, and show up for our clients.

Welcome to the team, Katelynn!

It takes courage to build something of your own, especially when everything you do is rooted in trust.

In this episode of Made in Iowa, our co-founder Laura Peterson shares the story behind launching Unison Design Studio and why clarity, collaboration, and care are not just values on a wall, but principles that shape every partnership and every space we design.

For us, it has always been about doing this work together. We believe in serving the communities we are part of because the work means more when it is shared.

In Iowa, relationships come first. When we truly listen and design in unison with our clients, the results are not only beautiful, they are impactful.

We are grateful to be part of a community where trust is earned and collaboration is expected. Tune in to hear Laura’s passion for architecture and learn a little more about her why.

Mondays usually get a bad reputation.... but not around here.

At Unison Design Studio, Mondays mean celebrating new team members, fresh perspectives, and the creativity they bring with them.

Here’s a look back at just how awesome Mondays can be when you’re welcoming new people to the team. Happy Monday, all!

New year, new studio, and big things ahead.

2025 was special. It is the year Unison officially came to life. As we look ahead to 2026, we are excited for growth, meaningful design, strong partnerships, and the next chapter of our journey.

Here’s to what’s ahead.

Together. In Unison. Happy New Year! 🎉

25 days in, and we already have so much to celebrate.

We’re shaping more than a workspace.... we’ve built momentum, culture, and a team we’re incredibly proud of.

This “Wrapped” is a fun, lighthearted look at the people and moments behind our start, and a reminder of how excited we are for what’s ahead.
