Designing Spaces, Building Dreams with Dala Al-Fuwaires
Manage episode 452609469 series 1942938
In some ways, building the business of your dreams is like building your dream home. It starts with a concept and vision to create a place where everyone can relax, enjoy themselves, and make great memories in a beautiful space they can't wait to return to. But how do you turn your vision and your story into reality? That's where a professional like today's guest comes in to help.
Dala Al-Fuwaires is responsible for some of the most iconic spaces you'll see here in Arizona and around the world. She's the founder, CEO, and principal designer of House of Form, an interior design firm in Phoenix that Dala describes as "experience design" that activates all five senses, helping clients become a go-to hospitality space. Their mission revolves around crafting an accessible form of luxury with an intangible vibe that's ethereal and elusive, all achieved through the medium of impeccable interior design.
In our conversation, Dala shares how House of Form has set itself apart from typical design firms and how she helps her clients tell their stories through design. You'll also hear how her clients become clients for life instead of a "one and done" and what she's doing to inspire others, especially women with a passion for entrepreneurship.
In this podcast interview, you’ll learn:
- How a chance encounter with a fortune teller as a child inspired Dala to follow her passion for architecture and design.
- The unconventional technique Dala uses with new clients to help them design spaces based on intuition and feeling.
- How Dala uses equity, “reverse reviews,” and team research trips to build a loyal team and company that can grow and scale together.
- How Dala’s experience with the gender pay gap prompted her to take the leap into entrepreneurship in 2015.
- The activities and competitions Dala hosts to empower innovators in the Valley.
