PRESIDENT'S LETTER

We Will Make Your Dream a Reality.

Whether it’s in your home, office, or retail space, the rules and limitations of mass-produced wallcoverings are a thing of the past! The look, feel, and messaging possible with Digital Wallcoverings can bring new design opportunities to every project!

We will work in collaboration through every step of the process to ensure that your project is produced on time, on budget, and just as you visualized. Need help with graphics for your project? Let our experienced team assist you with every step in the process from curating concepts to production and final installation.

Your ideas brought to life through our expertise and the latest digital print technology.

Supporting our values

Iam so honored to be your Arizona North Chapter 2021-2022 president! ASID’s core values are design excellence, thoughtful leadership, advocacy, and being community driven. This past month I was tasked with creating a strategic plan for our chapter that would support these values. The two primary goals for this term are advancing the value of the interior design profession and advocating for the value the interior design profession brings to the design of humancentered environments.

It is my mission to bring value to our membership through educational events, mentorship programs, volunteer opportunities, increasing recognition for our members and our association, and creating a true sense of community by strengthening strategic alliances with our industry partners as well as our community. To accomplish these goals, I am calling on you, the membership, to help me and the incoming board make this happen. We have several opportunities for you to participate and look forward to collaborating with you.

Jennifer

JENNIFER BIFFER, ASID Arizona North Chapter President
