Happy Friday!!!✨
Check out our latest Faces of FAY feature! We're spotlighting Shaina Kay Armstrong, founder and director of design at SK Design Studio, Hospitality Architecture & Interiors. She's a 2011 graduate of the Fay Jones School of Architecture and Design, with a Bachelor of Interior Design degree. During this conversation, Armstrong discussed the ways that she strives to bring diversity to the design industry. In addition to working on a variety of project types, Armstrong has spoken at schools and colleges to encourage creative careers to underrepresented students. “The most challenging part of my job is mixing art with business,” Armstrong said. “I’m first an artist and second a businesswoman. The art component of architecture and design is where it starts. I’m in the profession because I want to create spaces from my imagination. I want to draw and sketch design solutions to deliver successful projects to the client and the public. Parallel to that is developing and maintaining a functioning business, which requires a different set of skills.” 🏨 Read the full Q&A here ➡️ https://lnkd.in/gb7XHF_n
