Thank you AD Pro for featuring our inaugural AAPIDA Gala 🪩 We are still dreaming about that perfect night surrounded by creativity and community.
“Founded five years ago by designers Jessica Davis Young Huh, AAPIDA, as the national nonprofit organization is known, is dedicated to engaging and promoting Asian Americans working across the home and design industries.”

Meet Tina Ramchandani! @tinaramchandani is an award-winning New York City–based interior designer known for her warm, modern interiors.
Growing up in Edison, NJ, to parents who immigrated from India, Tina originally thought she would pursue a career in business. But on a trip to Mumbai, she walked into a hotel and had an epiphany. “There were layers of lights and textures, and there was a scent in the air,” she recalls. Captivated by the atmosphere—and the idea that she could create such experiences herself—she enrolled in the Art Institute of Philadelphia to study interior design.
After working for designer Vicente Wolf, Tina founded her eponymous firm in 2013. Today, her five-person studio takes on residential projects across the country, and she recently completed her first major hospitality project, Primrose, a bar in Manhattan’s Chelsea neighborhood. Her signature philosophy of “soulful minimalism” is as much about how people live as how their homes look. “I want people to feel like they’re living in a home surrounded by the things that matter, so they can focus on the people that matter.” she says.
A longtime supporter of @aapi_designalliance, Tina has contributed to the group’s Design on a Dime efforts and treasures the community of colleagues. “As a business owner, I’m often operating in a silo,” she says. “What’s special about AAPIDA is feeling seen and knowing you’re not alone.” 💜

EVENT RECAP: John Pomp Studio Tour @johnpompstudios
On October 22, AAPIDA Philadelphia hosted an exclusive private studio tour and reception with celebrated designer, artist, glassblower, and @aapi_designalliance member John Pomp. We went behind the scenes to see how he and his artisans transform molten glass into stunning lighting, furniture, and bespoke sculptural works.
Since founding his studio in 1999, John has grown it into a multidisciplinary team of more than fifty creatives. His work has been featured in Architectural Digest, AN Interior, Luxe Interiors + Design, Business of Home, and more, and his Rift Table and Chair appeared in Season 2 of Apple TV’s Severance.
We were all awestruck by the sheer scale of the space: 100,000 sq ft spanning an entire city block. For AAPIDA Philadelphia Chapter President, Claudette McCarron @cbmcreativellc, the most meaningful moment was hearing John and Anne Pomp share their early struggles and the story of how the business began. It’s truly a labor of love.
Thank you to John and Anne Pomp for an unforgettable tour, and to @johnpompstudios_olivia, Sales & Brand Manager, for planning the event with us. Thanks to members of @ifdaphilly and @asidpaeast for joining us.
We’re grateful to everyone supporting our events, and helping us grow a diverse design community in Philadelphia 🙏❤️

AAPIDA San Francisco: Diwali + SF Fall Show Week ✨
What a week to be part of the Bay Area design community, and what a way to end it. On Saturday night, our SF design community celebrated Diwali, the Festival of Lights, together for the first time. At the end of a very full week, in the heat and the traffic, you showed up and showed out! The attire alone was so stunning to see. Diwali celebrates light over darkness and good over evil, and spending it in a room full of community, connection, and culture felt exactly right.
Thank you to @irg_stoneboutique for inviting us to celebrate with you and for a beautiful evening of cocktails, bites, and views of the Bay at the @sfshowcase Fall Show. We’re so glad this was our first Diwali together, and we hope it’s the first of many. And if you haven’t visited their stone yard yet, put it on your list.
The day before, we kicked things off with a morning tour of the Fall Show at Fort Mason, followed by our luncheon. A big thank you to @whitemarble_pietrafina for sponsoring us!
Evenings like this remind us why AAPIDA exists: to celebrate who we are and where we come from, together.
AAPI or ally, we’d love to have you. Become a member at aapida.com/member and find upcoming events at aapida.com/calendar.

Sharpen Your Tools + Look Sharp
Back-to-school, @pacificdesigncenter edition.
Students came with portfolios and left with fresh feedback, new mentors, and a headshot worth updating LinkedIn for.
Thank you to @the.real.thomas.lavin and the TL team for hosting Sharpen Your Tools, and to our all-star lineup of reviewers for lending their expertise, their honesty, and an entire afternoon to the next generation.
For Look Sharp, thank you to @kneedlerfauchere for opening your doors, @glant_textiles for sponsoring, and @gabrielabarrantesphoto behind the lens.
Helping emerging designers set themselves up for success remains our favorite kind of homework.
AAPIDA LA Mentorship & Education
16 Oct 2026
What does the American dream look like when it’s drawn in Los Angeles? At the Pacific Design Center, three designers opened up the conversation and brought plenty to the table, leaving a packed room inspired.
We were proud to have Edel Legaspi @legaspicourtsdesign, our LA Chapter Vice President, on the panel for AAPIDA, alongside Kaleigh Nichols @ilovekayles and Luis Fernandez @luisfern5, with Erika Heet @erikaheet keeping the conversation honest and moving.
To A. Rudin @arudin1912, thank you for more than lending us your showroom. Your support for the voices that bring this community together means a great deal. And to ALMA and Golden Hour, our trifecta partners, it was a pleasure making this one together.

Meet Charles Almonte! @charles.c.almonte is an architect and interior designer based in Silver Spring, Maryland. He recently joined the AAPIDA Executive Board, where he leads our mentorship and education efforts.
Born and raised in the Philippines, Charles studied architecture at the University of Santo Tomas in Manila and earned a master’s degree in Historic Preservation from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. “My original plan had been to return to the Philippines to teach at the university level,” Charles says. But after grad school, he took a job at an architecture firm in Washington, DC, and ended up settling in the area. More than a decade ago, he founded his own firm, where he specializes in residential design, drawing on traditional interior design principles to blend modern and classic elements into a fresh, inviting aesthetic.
“I grew up identifying as Chinoy, a portmanteau of Chinese and Pinoy,” explains Charles, who grew up in and around Manila’s Chinatown. “I grew up in two worlds, each with its own rich culture, tied together by a sense of family and community, a belief in prayer and faith, and a love of food.”
When he’s not working, you’ll find Charles running, baking, shopping for vinyl, or hiking with his husband of 25 years. “We just completed a milestone trip, walking the Camino Francés — a 500-mile pilgrimage from the Pyrenees to Santiago de Compostela!”

Waste reduction has never looked better. Our Still Standing Exhibition (for which a select group of designers used our excess City Table Legs to create new home objects) is still on display at Fredericks & Mae from now through Sept. 20th. Stop by in person during store hours to see the one-of-a-kind stools, benches, lighting and more. Each item is also available for purchase through the link in our bio.
Thank you to @aapi_designalliance for partnering with us on this project and to @fredericksandmae for hosting us.
