ULYSSES, N.Y. — Trade Design Build, an architecture and construction firm in the Ithaca area, recently unveiled a community art gallery.
It’s part of a partnership with Corners Gallery, an art and design gallery located in the village of Cayuga Heights.
Trade Design Build held a celebratory ribbon cutting at its new office facility on Dec. 12, introducing the facility’s renovated spaces to Ithaca’s business community. The firm had been renovating the facility since purchasing the property at 1520 Trumansburg Road in the town of Ulysses (northwest of Ithaca) last January.

Inflation and Insurance Rates: How to Offset the Impact
Many industries have been hit by inflation where it hurts the most, our pockets. Inflation is raising the price of goods and services including food, housing, transportation, and medical care.
“We’re incredibly excited to finally be showing the community what we’ve been up to and the changes that have taken place over the past year,” Gideon Stone, partner at Trade Design Build, said in the announcement. “Not only is our space now optimal for our internal work and collaboration across our architecture and construction teams, but our products and services can now be put on full display for our clients.”
Curated and managed by Corners Gallery Owner Ariel Ecklund, the Trade Design Build community art gallery features pieces by regional artists and makers alongside selections from Trade’s woodworking and other designed products. Trade Design Build and Corners Gallery aim to cultivate an active design hub for the community, where regular exhibitions and events are held.
“Looking ahead to 2026, we are planning to present an array of public events that will interweave art, architecture, design, and sustainability — mirroring the interests of both Trade Design Build and Corners Gallery,” said Ecklund.
