EP 78: The Story Behind AI for Interior Designers™

EP 78: How AI for Interior Designers Got Started, Live from The Loft

Jenna Gaidusek has built a business on technology and interior design and teaching that to others in the interior design industry. In this episode, her longtime collaborator Julia Reinert flips the mic and asks the questions for once: how a girl from Vermont who didn't know "interior design" was a career ended up building the AI Social Club.

This episode was recorded live in The Loft inside the AI Social Club, the first one recorded there.

WHAT YOU WILL LEARN

- Where Jenna's design instincts actually started, years before design school

- What it was like graduating design school straight into the 2010 recession

- Why she built eDesign Tribe in 2018 and why she eventually sold it to Mydoma

- What made her buy the domain AI for Interior Designers in 2022

- Why she builds and breaks every tool herself before she teaches it

- How the AI Social Club became a house you walk through, room by room

THE ONE THING TO TAKE FROM THIS EPISODE

Jenna has never built anything with the intention of selling it. eDesign Tribe, AI for Interior Designers, the AI Social Club, all of it started because she wanted the thing to exist and nobody had built it yet. That's still how she decides what to build today.
