Distill, a virtual advertising agency since 2002, is planting some roots in downtown Raleigh. The agency has opened offices at 133 Fayetteville Street Mall, Suite 310.

"We've grown to the point where we've tested the limits of what a purely virtual agency can support," said Adam Cohen, creative director at Distill. "There will always be a significant virtual aspect to Distill — it allows us to tap into our national network of creative talent and build an ideal team for each project. But having our core team based in a central location helps hold the model together and maximize efficiencies."
