Michelle Prieston

FOUNDER & CREATIVE DIRECTOR

Michelle is a certified interior designer who marries her strong technical construction foundation and an unquenchable thirst for design to create unapologetically bold and thrilling concept driven interior experiences. A graduate of Drexel University, she spent a decade working at leading Philadelphia Interior Design & Architecture firms on commercial and residential projects prior to founding Aeternum Design Studio.

She began her career collaboratively designing and executing large and high-end commercial workplace and hospitality projects at KlingStubbins, Daroff Design, Gensler and Groundswell Design Group.  She was involved on each project from the design conceptualization through the final punch list, designing through all phases and facets of the project. 

Michelle formed the Philadelphia based Aeternum Design Studio to build upon her unique design perspective and provide thoughtful and highly crafted creative services for her clients.  Aeternum Design Studio extensively considers the performance, function and experience of a space and the desire to improve upon these criteria is at the heart of the company’s designs. Final designs are distinctive, highly crafted, thoughtfully considered and marry the history and context of the architecture, local culture and company brand.
