How a Refinery29 Vet Is Reshaping Domino Into a Major Digital Player

Mention the name Domino to any décor-savvy 30-something, and you're likely to get a squeal of excitement followed by a sigh of nostalgia. Launched by Condé Nast in 2005, Domino was a revolutionary brand within the shelter category, embracing a fun and eclectic design mix that was largely absent from its buttoned-up peers and attracting a younger set of readers who were just embarking on their own home-decorating journeys.

Today, Domino is going through yet another revamp, this time under the guidance of digital native Nathan Coyle. Before joining Domino last month, Coyle spent three years as evp and gm of Refinery29, launching the company's influencer platform and... Continue reading at 'AdWeek'
