Celebrating Women's History Month
March is Women’s History Month, and we’re taking a moment to celebrate the incredible women who have shaped the world of interior design. At Desired Designs, we’re inspired by the creativity, passion, and innovation that women bring to the industry, and we’re proud to be a part of this movement ourselves.
Celebrating Female Designers Who Inspire Us
Women have always been at the forefront of design - transforming spaces, breaking boundaries, and shaping the way we live and work. From renowned interior designers to architects and visionaries, their influence has been profound. Here are just a few we’re inspired by:

The Power of Representation
Representation matters. When women have a seat at the table, the design industry becomes more diverse, innovative, and reflective of different perspectives. We believe in supporting and uplifting women in creative fields by fostering inclusive spaces and highlighting their contributions.
Looking Ahead
Women’s History Month is a reminder to not only reflect on the past but also to support and champion the women shaping the future of design. Whether it’s through mentorship, collaboration, or amplifying women-owned brands and businesses, we are committed to fostering a more inclusive creative community.
