IIDA Northland is excited to introduce our Stewardship Committee, dedicated to curating programs that inspire and educate design professionals on sustainability.
We aim to be the “north star” for the interior design industry, championing the human and environmental considerations essential to interior design. Our work includes education and outreach on:
- Sustainability best practices
- Healthier materials and material transparency
- Reducing embodied carbon
- Social justice and equity in design
- Supporting local economies
Through events, resources, and industry partnerships, we strive to raise awareness and empower our community to design with intention, benefiting both people and the planet.
