Our Story

It all began in a quaint coffee shop in Uptown Dallas. Taryn had just started organizing a local women’s art collective, and Candace, thank goodness, attended the week’s meeting. While chatting, the pair quickly discovered they had a mutual interest in selling their own artwork and a friendship was born.

Over one of their many brainstorming sessions, Taryn and Candace lamented over their mutual difficulty in finding a website design that was both functional and aesthetically-pleasing enough to sell their products. So, rather than spending time looking for the perfect template for their websites, the friends decided to take things into their own hands.

In a wave of inspiration, Taryn and Candace started building Atlas 5 Studio. They did it not only for their own goals and desires, but for those of other creatives, entrepreneurs, and businesses.
