Fab 5: Nina Magon

Nina Magon didn’t set out to become an interior designe, but once she discovered a passion for shaping spaces, everything clicked. After pivoting from finance to interiors, the Canadian-born, Houston-based designer of Indian descent built a career crafting ultra-lavish environments infused with a fashion-forward point of view. Entering a predominantly white, male-dominated A&D industry, Nina carved out space on her own terms, earning global recognition and redefining modern luxury along the way. In this Fab 5, she shares bold opinions, creative instincts, and the philosophy that continues to push her work—and the industry—forward.

Fab 5: E.B. Min

E.B. Min’s path to architecture was anything but linear. A former pre-med student, she nearly left the field altogether after a series of discouraging early jobs—until a pivotal role at San Francisco–based Delaney and Cochran reframed what practice could be. Since then, the Korean American architect has built an influential career rooted in mentorship, equity, and interdisciplinary design. Founder of Min Design and a key force behind the Missing 32% (now Equity by Design), E.B. has helped reshape the conversation around gender and inclusion in architecture. Here, she reflects on her journey, inspirations, and hard-earned insights.

FAB 5: Lori Weitzner

To textile designer Lori Weitzner, there's nothing quite like handmade.

Through Weitzner Handmade, she partners with artisans worldwide to keep time-honored techniques alive (like her Up to Date wallcovering made from hand-cut, woven magazine strips). With collaborations with brands like Perennials and West Elm and work housed in major museums, Lori continues to champion tactile, color-rich design that engages all the senses.
