Designing Beauty in Multi-Family Housing: Creating Spaces People Love to Live In

305: Designing Beauty in Multi-Family Housing: Creating Spaces People Love to Live In Joining me today is Marcy Sagel, founder and principal of MSA Interiors, a leading commercial interior design firm specializing in multifamily housing, student housing, senior living, affordable housing, and other complex commercial projects. With over 30 years of experience, Marcy brings a deep understanding of how thoughtful design shapes the way people live every day. In this episode, we're diving into the world of multifamily living—what it really means, the unique considerations behind designing these spaces, and why everyone deserves beautiful, functional design, from affordable housing to high-end market-rate communities. I hope you'll find insight and inspiration in this conversation. Topics Mentioned: Affordable Housing Accessible Multifamily Housing Collective Decision Making Key Thoughts:  Multifamily design differs from residential in terms of stakeholder management and the need to balance aesthetics with durability and longevity across different price points. Everyone deserves great design, regardless of budget. The ability to balance and manage collective decision-making is imperative. Affordable housing require durable materials and can still incorporate thoughtful design.   Contact Michele: Email: [email protected] Facebook: Scarlet Thread Consulting Instagram: @ScarletThreadATL Website: ScarletThreadConsulting.com LinkedIn: Michele Williams   Contact Marcy: Email: [email protected] LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/marcysagel/ Website: msainteriors.com   References and Resources: Work with Me The Designers' Inner Circle - Become a Member Today    CFO2Go Metrique Solutions
