Good Design is Good design and has no fear of time or application. Thus designing packaging, custom furniture or the interior of your home all has the same basis in design fundamentals, color theory, space and proportion. Which brings us to a dozen or so years ago (but who‘s counting?) and Dina’s realization of her dream to get out of corporate America and back to her design studio roots. With a solid business background and Fine Art Degree, Dina pursued her Interior design career and was part of Ethan Allen’s nationally recognized furniture training program, and went on to Closson’s and other retailers and studios and her Allied ASID accreditation. Dina went into business in August of 2003 as Dina Burke Interior Design, LLC. She resides in Hyde Park with her husband of 10 years, Tom Burke and their champion particolor Cocker Spaniels.
