  • allie c. rosvold socially conscious designer + photographer(www.spacedesignnyc.com), allie's design philosophy is a synthesis of her formal education at the renowned new york school of interior design, her background in spa development and her extensive travels throughout central and south america, africa, south asia and europe. her designs are innovative and simple with a focus on materials and a touch of abstract cultural diversity. “i have studied design throughout my travels and it never ceases to amaze me how aesthetic and functional needs of building structures throughout the world vary so significantly depending on the culture, environment and local resources available. i have always embraced this knowledge and experience, which endlessly inspire me along with the photographs that come home with me.”
