President’s Appreciation Message — IDSK Q2 Roundtable Series 2026

The Interior Design Society of Kenya (IDSK) would like to extend our sincere appreciation to everyone who contributed to the success of the IDSK Roundtable Series 2026, particularly the professionals, partners, speakers, sponsors, and attendees for their continued support and participation.

We witnessed strong engagement both before and during the event, clearly demonstrating the growing need for deeper conversations around professionalism, pricing standards, collaboration, and the future of interior design in Kenya.

A special thank you goes to QS Patience Mulondo for delivering an insightful masterclass on value, authority, and pricing within the interior design sector. The session sparked important discussions that continue to shape how designers approach business, project delivery, and professional growth within the industry.

We also extend our gratitude to our sponsor partners, Ruby Interiors, Ceramic World, Asortie, and Jardin Classics, for supporting the advancement of the industry through meaningful collaboration and partnership.

As IDSK, we remain committed to creating platforms that empower designers, encourage knowledge sharing, strengthen professional networks, and support the continued growth of the interior design profession in Kenya.

The future of interior design in Kenya is incredibly promising, and it is important that, as an industry, we continue working together to build a professional, respected, and globally competitive sector.

Thank you for being part of the journey.

Cecilia Mbati
President, Interior Design Society of Kenya (IDSK)
