\n\u00e2\u20ac\u0153Education is a very important component of this show,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d states Roseann Carini, the SF Mart\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s general manager. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Designers and retailers must understand sustainable terms, certifications and processes so that they can educate their clients and customers. The individuals we have presenting at the show are experts in the field, and attendees should be very edified by the caliber of educational content.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n
The seminars are being co-sponsored by ASID, the American Society of Interior Designers. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153We believe that all responsible professionals must make a commitment to finding ways to diminish interior design’s impact on the environment,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d says Suzan Globus, FASID, President of ASID. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153It is also a smart way of doing business.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n
