About Taylor & Company

As experts in the field of furnishings, design, and architecture, we need little time to become acquainted with your industry—we already know it inside and out. We hit the ground running. Our principal and founder, Julie D. Taylor, Hon. AIA, has an extensive and impressive history in communications for creative fields since 1982. She started Taylor & Company in 1994 to represent a full range of design industries.

We view design as art in a business context—building beauty out of the red tape of bureaucracy. This isn’t just an industry we cover, we are intrinsically part of it. Taylor & Company knows that every firm has a story to tell, and we’re here to build your reputation one story at a time.

Our editorial experience is an invaluable asset that gives Taylor & Company the edge over other agencies, communicating your news and story angles successfully with fellow writers, reporters, and editors. 

Taylor & Company is the firm with the creativity, quality, tenacity, and expertise to achieve effective and impressive results. Integrity means something to us and our clients, as it establishes reputations for both of us as trusted sources that can provide insights about our industry.

Clients receive the full attention of the firm principal, along with additional members of the marketing, public relations, and management team. Our trusted relationships, cultivated through decades in the industry, with media across all platforms and locations, ensure access and attention that most agencies can’t match. 

We are committed to excellence, particularly in the fields of architecture, design, and other forms of creative expression, and are very particular about who we represent. Taylor & Company collaborates exclusively with clients whose exceptional talent and practice are exemplary of their industries, upholding our commitment to promoting truly creative organizations.
