New Year, New Name
We’re excited to share that Studio NLM has evolved into Dust & Zeal - a name that reflects the materials we work with and the energy we bring to every project.
Dust - For the raw materials we shape daily — steel, brass, timber, stone and everything in between.
Zeal - For the obsession, precision and care that goes into every joinery detail, metal fabrication and interior we deliver.
This rebrand marks a new chapter for us, but our values remain unchanged: integrity, craft, and thoughtful design.
WHATS NEW
WHY WE REBRANDED
Over the past few years, our work has expanded beyond fabrication into full interiors, custom joinery, architectural metalwork, retail design, and brand environment builds.
We needed a name that reflects the breadth and intention of what we do.
