Making it happen with Monkeys - A note from a design|house user, Dawn Schubert...
"design|house™ has added a whole new level to my digital photography. The possiblities of creativity are endless with this product. I love using the D|H textures to add a special mood to my images. With just the touch of a button I can make my portraits pop with the power punch actions and the cool thing about it is I can adjust these actions by tweaking the opacity to a level that suits my taste. I also love being able to go to the design|house learning center to watch tutorials."
Thank you, Dawn. I’m glad you’re loving it. Your work is outstanding! If you want to send me your thoughts about design|house or anything else, please don’t hesitate to send an email to andy@getdesignhouse.com

What's up with the Monkey ?
You've seen him. He's pictured in this email, but what's the deal with the d|h monkey?
design|house suite vol. 1 and the design|house actions vol. 1 contain 12 cross-processing actions called the design|house monkey actions. There are blue monkeys, yellow monkeys, and green monkeys.
When Andy Armstrong created the design|house collection, he initially started by creating a few actions to give photographs a wonderful cross-processing pop. He was inspired to create what became known as "Funky Monkey" by the work of friend and award-winning photographer, Julie Lowry. Andy's nickname for his good friend: Spider Monkey. Thus, the "monkey" actions were born.
Did you know that unlike most actions, you can combine and stack design|house actions with ease?
Did you know that unlike most actions, the design|house actions are made to be completely non-destructive to your image, highly organized, and completely adjustable? Andy didn't want you to have to run an action and just live with it. Nope, he wants you to run and action and then make the result your own. d|h doesn't want cookie cutter results - we want custom results.
