Bea Pila-Gonzalez (Interior Designer Miami)
After school, Bea Pila-Gonzalez would go to her parents framing shop. One day, her father dragged her to a job at an interior designer’s home. “I saw that things were harmonized and put together, and I felt what the beauty of interior design does to a space”, says Pila-Gonzalez. The little girl grew up to combine this wonderment with her parent’s entrepreneurial success and develop her own interior design business.
“I truly feel that I was given my talents and aptitude by divinity. Being a interior designer allows me to express the wealth of these abilities to their greatest potential”, says Pila-Gonzalez, who uses this to create “timeless yet current” interior designs. “I rarely, rarely decorate”. I feel my forte is to manipulate the architectural design of a space, not adding a lot of frou-frou”, she says.
Pila-Gonzalez hones her talents by measuring herself against her sources of wisdom and inspiration: Andrée Putman, Michael Graves, and Robert Stern, who she immortalizes alongside other talents in a scrapbook titled, Silent Mentors.
