Navigating Tariffs & Rising Costs in Interior Design At TEW Design Studio, we’ve always believed that great design is more than just beautiful – it’s smart, intentional problem-solving.

When this young family reached out to TEW Design Studio, they weren’t dreaming of over-the-top luxury. They were envisioning something harder to find: a home that felt light, easy, and intuitive. Their existing first-floor layout was a bit of a jigsaw puzzle–rooms divided, light blocked, and storage limited. The kitchen, in particular, felt disconnected and […]
At TEW Design Studio, we believe the best design doesn’t only look good–it solves problems. That mindset sparked the creation of TEWlines: our custom-designed furniture line, crafted with care right here in North Carolina.

🎉 It’s Rima’s birthday! 🎂
So today, we’re hitting pause to celebrate the creative force behind TEW Design Studio. 💫
Rima founded our studio on the belief that diversity fuels creativity—and it shows in every bold color palette, artful composition, and culturally inspired detail we bring to life. As a Palestinian, an immigrant, and a designer, her long journey from Nazareth to Raleigh (with a stop in Florence for a Master’s in Interior Design 🇮🇹) has shaped not only our work but our mission.
She leads with heart, a painter’s eye, and a wild appreciation for the beauty in nature—and somehow still finds time to garden, hike, and chase her two boys around every playground in Raleigh. 🌿👟🎨
Help us wish Rima a joyful day and a year full of color, adventure, and creativity!

Working with incredible clients like Dr. Ghandi is why we do what we do 💚
She trusted us five years ago to design a dental office that felt calming, welcoming, and anything but clinical. And when it came time to grow? She trusted us again.
This expansion kept everything patients loved—color, energy, personality—and built on it with even more intentional design:
✨ Sound-dampening panels to keep the “dentist-y” sounds at bay
🌿 Texture, movement, and warm tones to put patients at ease
🎨 Playful art moments to turn stress into smiles
Grateful for clients who believe in thoughtful design—and let us run with it.

😁 Five years later and still smiling!
Mint Leaf Dentistry invited us back to expand their space—this time with even more focus on calming energy and intentional distractions from the not-so-fun parts of a dental visit (looking at you, drill 🦷).
We layered in textured walls, soft lighting, and sound-dampening materials to keep stress low and comfort high. It’s dentistry—but make it design-forward. ✨
