Designing for a Cure: Highlights from the “Pretty and Pink” Event at PDI Lighting

Georgia Chapter of the American Society of Interior Designers (ASID) hosted its inspiring Pretty and Pink event — an evening dedicated to Designing for a Cure and celebrating wellness in design. The event took place inside the stunning PDI Lighting showroom, where creativity met compassion in a beautifully styled, pink-themed setting that glowed with warmth and purpose.

ASID is a professional organization that unites interior designers, industry partners, educators, and students to advance the profession and demonstrate the power of design to improve lives. Through events like Pretty and Pink, ASID continues to lead the conversation on how design can influence wellness, connection, and healing — proving that great design extends far beyond aesthetics.

PDI Lighting, a leader in luxury lighting, plumbing, and hardware, generously hosted the event in their showroom. Known for their expertly curated collections and commitment to exceptional customer experiences, PDI provided the perfect backdrop for this special evening. The showroom was transformed into a radiant space bathed in soft pink hues, with elegant floral arrangements and carefully lit displays showcasing how design and wellness can work hand in hand.

Guests from across the design community gathered to network, celebrate, and learn more about the impact of Designing for a Cure — an initiative that encourages designers to use their creativity and influence to promote health, wellness, and hope. The night offered an opportunity to reflect on how thoughtful design choices can uplift spirits, inspire healing, and make a positive difference in people’s lives.

Attendees enjoyed cocktails, hors d’oeuvres, and great conversation while exploring PDI’s latest lighting innovations. The atmosphere was filled with a sense of purpose and unity as designers, industry professionals, and friends came together around a shared passion: using design as a force for good.

Throughout the evening, speakers and guests shared insights on how the design industry can contribute to wellness — from creating restorative environments to supporting charitable initiatives that fund research and awareness. The Pretty and Pink event beautifully highlighted that design is more than function and beauty; it’s also about heart, healing, and human connection.

The Pretty and Pink event was not only a celebration of style and innovation but also a reminder of the power of the design community when it comes together for a meaningful cause. ASID continues to champion initiatives that blend creativity with purpose, and PDI Lighting remains a proud supporter of efforts that emphasize wellness, compassion, and connection through design.

By shining a light on the intersection of design and wellness, Pretty and Pink reinforced an important message: when we design with empathy and intention, we help create spaces — and experiences — that nurture the body, mind, and soul.
