Baker Artist Portfolios

Realm is a design studio and workshop with a taste for aberrant and eclectic design. Experimental in its approach, Realm creates unique and bespoke objects and furniture handcrafted in Baltimore.

Founded by artists Ian Murphy and Stevie Pniewski, Realm was conceived to be a creative atelier where off-kilter form and playful expression blend seamlessly with their mutual love of ancient crafts and bold ornamentation. With a background in fine arts and over a decade of experience in boutique furniture manufacturing, their collaboration combines fine woodworking, jewelry and metalsmithing, leather work, upholstery, and detailed sculpting.

Embracing the strange and otherworldly, Realm’s vision is constantly morphing, flirting with avant-garde and modern design while maintaining a sense of mischief and seduction.
