Let´s talk about Protecting Design through Construction with Ezgi Fitos – S4E18

Today we’re diving into a part of our industry that truly defines whether great design actually becomes reality. I’m joined by Ezgi Fitos, founder of Designology—a Miami-based, award-winning design-build studio operating at the intersection of design and construction. Her work focuses on high-end residential projects, and she also collaborates closely with architects and interior designers as a general contractor—bringing complex visions to life with precision and care. What I love about her approach is the level of intention behind pre-construction and how that really protects the design all the way through execution. So today, we’re talking about what it takes to build great design… and to actually get it right.

Let's talk about Innovation in the Kitchen with Ashley Rojas – S3E19

Today, we’re taking things into the kitchen with a guest from one of the most iconic names in high-end appliances: Sub-Zero, Wolf, and Cove. Joining me is Ashley Rojas, a passionate Trade Representative for Sub-Zero Group Florida, covering the Miami and Gulf Coast regions. Since joining the company in 2018, she’s been instrumental in building strong partnerships with architects, kitchen designers, and interior designers — driving brand awareness through immersive trainings, chef-led experiences, and showroom events that bring the Sub-Zero, Wolf, and Cove story to life. Her work blends education, experience, and strategy to deepen product knowledge and foster lasting loyalty across the design community. But beyond her professional expertise, Ashley brings a wonderful personal story — one that bridges her Midwestern roots in Iowa and her Colombian heritage. She’s a marketer at heart, a lover of travel, good wine, and great coffee, and a proud mom to a one-year-old son with another little one on the way. We’ll be talking about the intersection of design, culinary culture, and brand storytelling — and how Sub-Zero, Wolf, and Cove continue to set the standard for timeless performance and design innovation in the home.
