A FAMILY RUN PR FIRM
Design Story PR is a family-run firm with deep roots in the design world. Founder Matt McGarry grew up surrounded by floor plans and fabric swatches—his mom was an interior designer who taught him to appreciate the details that bring a space to life. Today, that same love of design shapes everything we do, helping our clients tell stories that feel as personal as the spaces they create.

We’ve secured features in several prestigious publications, significantly enhancing our credibility and reach.
What truly sets Matt apart is his proactive communication and responsiveness. His deep connections with writers, editors, and key industry professionals have opened doors that might otherwise have remained closed.
