03 / A NAME WITH A MEMORY

From Glasgow.
With feeling.

Dial Inn Studio takes its name from a Glasgow music venue remembered fondly by our founder.

The old Dial Inn on West Regent Street brought people together around live music. That spirit—a place to enter, listen and feel at home—is our inspiration.

Our frontage is an original imagined scene, informed by the old entrance and the founder’s memory of the downstairs lounge. This software studio is an independent project.
