Keri Atchley
Founder & Creative Director
An Atlanta native who now happily resides in South Walton, Florida. Keri graduated from the University of Georgia with a Bachelor of Fine Arts - a major in Commercial Interior Design and a minor in Fine Arts. Keri honed her creative skills by studying abroad program in Cortona, Italy. Following internships with the architecture firms of Leo A. Daly and Perkins + Will, Keri spent six years with Folio, Inc./Ideas, Inc., rising to the position of design director in 1998.
In 2000, Keri branched out to establish Design360 (www.design-360.com), a boutique design firm with a highly personal and hands-on approach to all manner of creative ventures. In 2009, the firm relocated to Northwest Florida offering professional services to a wide array of diverse clients throughout the Southeast.
Ever looking for the next challenge, Keri established a publishing division in 2010, and soon teamed up with her Atlanta veterinarian to create “The Dogs of 30A Book”. Design360 also designed and published the hugely popular coffee-table books, “30A Style” and “30A Living”, and guest book “30A Memories” by Lynn Nesmith; as well as the book that accompanied the documentary “Coastal Dune Lakes: Jewels of Florida’s Emerald Coast” and the “Great Florida Cattle Drive” by Elam and Nic Stoltzfus.
Also recently published is her own children’s book “The Adventures of the Almost 10 lb Beastie.”
Outside the office, Keri enthusiastically embraces a range of non-profit and civic organizations. In honor of the firm’s 10th Year Anniversary in 2010, Keri donated more than $45,000 in design services to deserving local charities.
She also is active in the yoga community and has her RYT-200 Yoga certification. Keri is a Certified Elevated Grounded Teacher (Children’s yoga) and offers yoga and art workshops for children of all ages. Keri also held the lead Physical Education teacher position for the South Walton Montessori School for 4 years (2014-2018). Her students ranged from 18-month-old toddlers all the way up to 8th graders. With a background in gymnastics and a love for nutrition and fitness, Keri enjoyed spreading this teachable knowledge to all ages. She also stood in as a substitute teacher when needed.
Greg Atchley
Partner & Lead Designer
A native of Tennessee/Georgia/Florida, Greg Atchley has always loved anything related to life at sea level – in terms of both work and play. After graduating from University of Georgia with a degree in Landscape Architecture, Greg returned to live along the Atlantic Ocean as Park Design Coordinator for Charleston County Parks and Recreation Commission in Charleston, South Carolina. His career soon called him back to Atlanta, where he worked with Laubmann-Reed & Associates development master planning and later the Fulton County Office of Economic Development as Arborist/landscape Architect. With years of experience in residential design, project management, and landscape architecture, Greg applied his diverse talents as a partner of Design360 in 2001.
Although Design360 was thriving in Atlanta, the founding principals opted to relocate the company’s headquarters to sea level and the quaint beach town of Santa Rosa Beach along Scenic Highway 30A in Northwest Florida, an area known for its appreciation of high design. With the move has come a diversified clientele and expanded professional offerings. Greg’s eager mind and energetic spirit are fed through Design360’s portfolio of innovative marketing, business development, publishing ventures, architectural and environmental design, and full-service and multi-media graphics.
Active in environmental and community affairs, Greg serves on the Board of Trustees of Emerald Coastkeepers, as well as Trees on the Coast. Taking full advantage of living along the Gulf of Mexico, Greg makes time for recreational travels, honing his culinary skills, sailing, fishing, all manner of watersports, and most of all quality time with family.
In 2022, Greg & Keri Atchley celebrated 20 years of marriage; and together, they have two wonderful teenage daughters.
Highly personal with a hands-on approach.
Design360 knows how to deliver solid design.
We offer our superb design skills
and outstanding marketing materials.
It's what we do...all day, every day.
When we say “we can help you”… we mean it. With no other motive than to make things easier and happier for our clients, we have a strong desire to help others. And we usually know how to make things happen because we don’t take no for an answer. But we are humble and realize our limitations.
We know good design when we see it and we know how to create it. Established in Atlanta in 2000, Design360 is a boutique design firm with a highly personal and hands-on approach to all manner of creative ventures. In 2009, the firm relocated to Northwest Florida offering professional services to a wide array of diverse clients throughout the Southeast, but more specifically to the "locals" of our beach towns - all along 30A, Destin, Miramar Beach, and Panama City Beach.
