BUSINESS + DESIGN CONFERENCE
FOR INTERIOR DESIGNERS
Join us for a powerful three-day experience where interior design, business strategy, curated connection, and creative excellence collide.
October 2–4, 2025 | The Thompson Hotel, Buckhead
A New Standard for Interior Design Business Education and Creative Access
The Case Conference is the leading interior design business event for designers who want to scale creatively and strategically. Curated by award-winning interior designer and creative producer Jameelah Watkins-Mallett, this three-day conference blends advanced business education, powerful industry insight, and real-world application.
It’s more than a conference, it’s a movement. We’re reshaping how interior designers learn, lead, and build successful, sustainable design firms in an industry that has often left us out of the blueprint.
THIS YEAR’S VENUE PARTNERSHIP
