Working with the brand has been a true godsend and has changed my perspective on work entirely. It feels enriching, on a daily basis, to work with a brand that is authentic and that is supporting industry in America. Plus, they are a true community. That business model is incomparable and rare. I\u2019m inspired by the products they are creating and the integrity behind them\u2014everything from the people who are crafting each piece, to the intention of how they are changing peoples lives as individuals or our country as a whole. As a contributing design director, I consult on new product and work on inspiration and direction in various categories. We are working to grow our female audience, so we have more offerings across the board.\u201d \u2014 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/carolynmurphy\/?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Carolyn Murphy<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">[[{&#8220;type&#8221;:&#8221;media&#8221;,&#8221;view_mode&#8221;:&#8221;media_original&#8221;,&#8221;fid&#8221;:&#8221;1338&#8243;,&#8221;attributes&#8221;:{&#8220;alt&#8221;:&#8221;&#8221;,&#8221;class&#8221;:&#8221;media-image&#8221;,&#8221;height&#8221;:&#8221;540&#8243;,&#8221;title&#8221;:&#8221;&#8221;,&#8221;typeof&#8221;:&#8221;foaf:Image&#8221;,&#8221;width&#8221;:&#8221;960&#8243;}}]]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Carolyn&#8217;s mood board.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cDetroit was once the heartbeat of America\u2014with Motown music and industrial innovation. The city is so inspiring because even in times of despair, the spirit of the people keep it alive with hope, they take pride in Detroit\u2019s history and manufacturing, and it is that thread of community that fuels Shinola.
