Join us on this episode of "All-In Design" where we speak with Jim Griffo, president of the Alabama Interior Design Coalition and adjunct professor at Samford University. Jim has had a long career in the industry, formally as a Managing Principle and Director of the Architecture and Interior Design Studio for Gresham Smith in Alabama, president of the local IIDA chapter, and having received Emeritus member status by IIDA. Jim also may be related to one of the hosts (they at least share a last name).

This is a wide ranging discussion with someone with a deep well of experience in this industry and we hope you enjoy the conversation as much as we did.

Join us on this episode of All-In Design as we speak with Alexa Turner with CCR Architecture & Interiors. We had a wide ranging discussion starting with Alexa's start at Lowes (a job, by the way, that Mark couldn't get), working at Tarkett's plant in Florence, and then her first commercial job at GMC. Alexa helps us to understand storytelling within interior design and how that can keep an interior space stay timeless. We delve a bit into exotic pets, combinatory play, and how both mushrooms and Alexa can help you pass on from this world. It's a fun discussion and we hope you take a listen.

Join us on this incorrectly numbered episode of "All-In Design", as we talk with our friend Mary-Claire Brown with Turnerbatson. On this episode, we talk about Mary-Claire's journey from nursing to interior design and her tapping into her creative side within the interior design profession. We also discuss her previous role as IIDA Alabama chapter President and her uncanny ability to rescue pets and pawn them off on others. It's a fun discussion with a good friend as we kick-off 2026.
