ORIGIN OF TIBI DABO STUDIO

We [Sara and Morgan] first met in college because of our passion for the Catholic faith and our budding architectural studies. We studied abroad together in Barcelona and it was there we discovered Mount Tibidabo, a beautiful mountain overlooking the city and the shores below. This breathtaking view along with the works of Antoni Gaudí inspired us both to use design as a means to express the beauty of God. 

We hope Tibi Dabo Studio brings the truth, beauty, and goodness of the Faith to your home and everyday life.

ORIGIN OF "TIBI DABO"

Our favorite spot in Barcelona was the view from the Sacred Heart Basilica on Mount Tibidabo. Named by locals because it's said to be the mountain where Satan tempted Jesus* (and if you’ve ever seen it, you may just agree). The same words are inscribed in the dome at St. Peter’s Basilica quoting the Gospel of Matthew** where Christ gave Peter the keys to the kingdom.

​

*Matthew 4:9

Latin: et dixit illi haec tibi omnia dabo si cadens adoraveris me

English: And said to him: All these will I give thee, if falling down thou wilt adore me.

​

**Matthew 16: 18-19

Latin: Tu es Petrus et super hanc petram aedificabo ecclesiam mean et tibi dabo claves regni caelorum.

English: And I say to thee: That thou art Peter; and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. And I will give to thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven.

MORGAN

I'm a Catholic wife and mother of two little girls. A Tibi Dabo Studio designer and more recently a retired architect/stay at home mom. Some of my hobbies include: navigating the world as a textbook introvert, eating lots of sushi and cereal, learning Chopin on the piano (he understands my pregnancy emotions), and watching Cary Grant movies.

SARA

I'm a cradle Catholic and a wife-to-be. A Tibi Dabo Studio designer and an architect. Some of my hobbies include: being a bridesmaid (I'm practically Katherine Heigl in 27 Dresses), planning my wedding - finally!, making rosaries, perfecting my chocolate chip cookie recipe, and collecting mugs.
