David Badman, metalsmith and designer, began with a simple goal in 1988: to keep his new business solvent for six months. Studio 18 opened on North 4th street in downtown Grand Forks, ND in May, 1988. Studio 18 eventually turned into Badman Original Jewelry. When Badman moved into home decor in 1996, the name was changed to Badman Design to better reflect the expanded focus. Now, more than 33 years later, Badman Design is synonymous with quality metals, fun, jewelry, home decor, liturgical art and more. If you are ever in Grand Forks, ND stop by and enjoy the 5,000 sq. showroom and design studio downtown at 18 South 3rd Street.
