Meet Susan Brown

Allied ASID Interior Designer

Susan Brown started her career in the communications industry. After sitting in a cubicle, surrounded by blank walls and overhead fluorescent lighting all day, she took the initiative to propose a new office design to her boss. After reviewing the design proposal, her boss responded with “you are in the wrong business my dear.”

This experience helped Susan realize just how much her surroundings affected her mood and productivity and quickly decided she wanted to help others create spaces that inspired them.

In 2001, Susan returned to school for an Associate Degree in Interior Design from Harrington Institute and started working within the design industry.

Susan’s design dreams came true in the fall of 2021 when she opened the doors to her first brick and mortar studio!

Susan is married with two amazing daughters and lives in Roscoe Village.
