August 2021 - WSA Studio

Paige Schmeling has been appointed to the Italian Village Commission as one of seven mayoral appointees who serve the community. Established in 1973, the commission’s purpose is to preserve, protect, and enhance the unique architectural and historical features of the Italian Village Historic District. The Commission considers applications and issues for exterior alterations within the Italian Village Historic District in their monthly meetings.

As a registered architect and Design Specialist with WSA, Paige brings extensive experience in assisting with all phases of projects, specializing in construction administration and documentation. She partners closely with clients to understand their need, coordinating with technical teams to meet those goals. Her deep understanding of the importance in designing spaces that represent the community and foster a healthy culture will fuel her ability to meet the needs of the Italian Village residents as a whole.

Congratulations, Paige! We are excited to have your guidance as our city continues to grow and evolve.

Congratulations to our Studio Leader, Kirsten Sheely, for being named 2021-2022 President-Elect of the International Interior Design Association, Ohio/Kentucky Chapter! The Ohio/Kentucky Chapter is one of the largest chapters in the IIDA organization, consisting of nearly 600 members across all levels and spanning two states. As President-Elect, Kirsten will continue to promote their overarching mission to provide meaningful resources to commercial interior designers and their clients, enhancing the profession and business value.

Kirsten has served the IIDA in various capacities since 2004. Through out these years, Kirsten has maintained an active IIDA leadership presence in the community. As 2018 President of the Columbus Chapter, Kirsten reintroduced the Design Awards program to great success. She looks forward to using this new platform to build upon this success and boost awareness of regional design excellence.

In her new role, Kirsten is eager to lean into her duties as treasurer and aid the Board of Directors in how the Ohio/Kentucky chapter can best support their members and the community. She will also manage the Chapter’s resource development, officer and award elections, and prepare the annual budget as she prepares to step into the Chapter’s President position in 2023.

We are proud to have Kirsten’s leadership guiding WSA and excited to see her impact in this coming year!
