Interior Designer Kia Weatherspoon spent her youth making frequent trips to visit her brother in prison - a deeply dehumanizing experience that left a big impression.

Now, Kia is delivering on a quest to ensure that interior design is accessible for all, especially those in economically challenged communities.
