We work on a wide range of design projects, with a strong focus on books of all types.
We know how to work FAST when needed. Since 2009 we have designed the 128 page program guide for the Full Frame Documentary Film Festival with a turnaround time of just a couple weeks.

Sparking joy and conversation through books & gallery exhibits
An award-winning graphic design and book production studio, Horse & Buggy Press is located in Durham, North Carolina at 1116 Broad Street where we also curate a 500 square foot fine craft and art gallery appropriately called Horse & Buggy Press and Friends. The gallery features work by dozens of established artists and craftspersons from across the Southeast, most from North Carolina.
Globally, we head up the North American sector of The Aesthetic Police — an emergency relief agency working to counteract the continued decimation of worldwide aesthetic standards. Like any (self-appointed) regulatory agency, we aren’t shy about overstepping our bounds.
All kidding aside, we are serious about demonstrating the power, mystique, and aura of print, fine art, and craft-based objects. Through our work on projects large and small, public and private, we are quietly instrumental in demonstrating the relevance of beauty, the importance of attention to detail, and the pleasure in creating, seeing, and interacting with soulful work as we spark joy and conversation along the way.
Please enjoy your visit(s) here on the website and reach out when you have design projects in need of a designer.
Visit the gallery when you might be looking for inspired works for your home or business, or gifts for loved ones, or want to take in our focused main exhibitions.
