Mario De Armas is a first generation Cuban-American born and raised in Miami, Florida. Raised in a close-knit family (his grandparents and parents live across the street), he developed a love for design at an early age, eventually attending the University of Alabama where he studied interior design.
With a semester left to go before graduating, Mario accepted a job offer and returned to Miami and began his career at the Summerhouse Design Group where he became known for his high-end interior residential design. He recently left the company to start his own business and design his own furniture line.
Quotable Mario:
"When I design, I do more than create a functional and appealing space that the client enjoys. I study, create and bring to life a lifestyle that evokes a feeling, which is what the client is really asking me to do."
