MEET KEIA
Currently, the Owner and Project Manager of Kimberly & Cameron Interiors, consider Keia a well organized, highly effective interior design obsessed Wonder Woman. Additionally, she serves as the President of the Black Interior Designers Network.
I knew that there was no better way to celebrate (and honor) Black History Month than to have the President of the Black Interior Designers Network on the show.
As someone who has worked effortlessly and endlessly to create a space for designers of color within the industry, in our conversation we talk about celebrating diversity, cultural influences in design, and what buying power truly means in the industry.
Being that Keia is also someone that juggles many hats, we also talk about what it means to tend to herself and what her self-care looks like, something that I’m sure many of us could learn from just as much as we can from her words on culture, travel, and design.
Carrying on the legacy of a close friend and mentor is no easy feat, and yet it’s exactly what Keia did and continues to do with Kimberly & Cameron Interiors and the Black Interior Designers Network, which is celebrated its tenth anniversary this year!
