In November 2017, Architectural Digest launched a partnership with New Story to fund a 100 home community in Titanyen, Haiti.
Since then, the AD community, network, and staff have rallied the cause to fund more than 35 life-changing homes.
Last week, AD hosted an event at the beautiful Guild by Roman + Williams in New York to share the message about New Story and our partnership.
The intimate breakfast was attended by 70 of New York’s leading designers, architects, and influencers — all of whom bonded over the idea of “design for good” a concept being championed by the editor in chief at AD, Amy Astley.
Amy has been a partner & champion of the AD + New Story collaboration from day one. “I want the idea of design making a difference — not just in the lives of the lucky people whose homes we photograph — to become part of the DNA of AD.”
The partnership was birthed from an introduction through Gina Sanders. Gina has been a vital advisor for New Story and connected our brands to explore how we might partner together.
In three short months, the incredible AD community has come together and funded 35 of the 100 homes. This event brought together a new network to rally the cause further. We’re thrilled to see the progress and can’t wait to see continued involvement through 2018.
