President's Newsletter - January 2025

Dear IDS Dallas Fort Worth Members, 

As we step into an exciting new season for the Interior Design Society Dallas Fort Worth Chapter, I am thrilled to be your incoming President. In the year to come, I hope to connect with you personally and celebrate the incredible community we have built together. Our chapter continues to thrive as a hub for innovation, collaboration, and professional growth in the world of interior design. This year, we are focused on expanding opportunities for our members to sharpen their skills, grow their businesses, and foster relationships with like-minded professionals who share a passion for transforming spaces into stories. 

Our mission is to provide value and inspiration at every touchpoint, and this year, we're raising the bar with a lineup of engaging events, hands-on workshops, and impactful networking opportunities. Whether you're a seasoned designer or just starting your journey, we're here to support you with resources tailored to your unique goals. From discussions on cutting-edge design trends to best practices in running a successful firm, our chapter is dedicated to equipping you with the tools and knowledge you need to thrive in today's dynamic design landscape. 

None of this would be possible without the dedication and enthusiasm of our incredible members, sponsors, and leadership team. Your commitment fuels our chapter's success and positions IDS DFW as a leader in the interior design community. As we navigate this year together, I encourage you to take advantage of all we have to offer and share your voice in shaping our chapter's future. If you are still reading this, please feel free to reach out to me personally – or any member of the Board – with your suggestions and ideas for our chapter.  

Cheers to there being enough ugly houses for all of us and let's celebrate community over competition. 

XO, 

Michelle Lynne
