“Design is a powerful tool for change,” says Suzanne Wilkinson, Principal at Figure3. “Over the last 30 years, we’ve had the opportunity to collaborate with visionary clients and industry leaders who share our belief that interiors should do more than look beautiful, they should move people, spark connection, and make everyday life better.”
As Figure3 looks ahead, its mission remains clear: to better the world with extraordinary interiors. Through a commitment to sustainability, innovation, and inclusion, the firm continues to push the boundaries of what interior design can achieve, one space at a time.
