About Craighill Craighill is a Brooklyn-based design studio creating enduring, beautiful, and useful objects with a deep commitment to ingenuity, curiosity, and long‑term creative ambition. From our Greenpoint studio, we’ve built one of the largest design‑focused organic social accounts in our category, with more than half a million followers across Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube. We’re building an independent company meant to endure for generations — focused on durability in product, culture, and creative integrity.
