Laura Roy

Founder & Board-Certified Medical Illustrator

A JHU-trained, board-certified medical illustrator, culinary graduate, and certified sommelier based in Yorkville, Manhattan. Laura moves with the rhythm of the city—mornings running the East River, afternoons painting in Central Park, and constantly tracking the hidden structural logic shared by a neural network and a pastry crumb. Bringing a rare, polymathic lens to visual problem-solving, her work actively bridges the gap between the laboratory, the boardroom, and the gallery. Whether architecting visual frameworks for wireless spinal implants, publishing 3D congenital heart defect printing research in JAMA, or defining the brand identity for Michelin-caliber restaurants, Laura translates high-stakes complexity into elegant, deeply strategic visual narratives.

Consulting Art Director

Consulting Art Director

An MFA-trained painter, former winemaker, and Consulting Art Director, Jeremy maintains a fine art studio in Bushwick to stay wired into the heart of the contemporary New York art scene. He brings a deep fluency in classical realism and human behavior to the design practice he co-leads alongside his wife, Laura. Constantly documenting how people interact with their environments—whether analyzing masterworks at the Met or researching on the ground in Taiwan and Ireland—Jeremy ensures the studio's overarching design architecture is both logically sound and beautifully grounded.
