SAVE THE DATE to spotlight leadership in the San Francisco design community!

The IIDA Leaders Breakfast is an annual event series that celebrates design’s importance in the global marketplace by honoring the people who are both the legacy and future of design. This is made possible through the support of IIDA Headquarters, International Benefactor MillerKnoll, and Media Partner Interior Design.

Each event features a renowned keynote speaker who enlightens, provokes, and encourages new ideas, and a celebration recognizing one local individual who is making significant contributions to the design industry with the Leadership Award of Excellence Presentation.

Leadership Award of Excellence Honoree:

Primo Orpilla
CoFounder, Principal | Studio O+A

Studio O+A is an interiors firm that specializes in workplace design. Establishing the company with Verda Alexander in 1991, Primo drew on an early interest in design and a feel for the growing tech economy to orient O+A to a rapidly changing work environment. A champion of design as a multidisciplinary art form, O+A grew from a two-person space-planning operation into a full-service design studio. As a thought leader in workplace design, Primo has spearheaded numerous experimental initiatives—from pop-up installations to next-generation office prototypes for the future of workplace. Primo is a passionate advocate for design education, working to expand opportunities for young professionals and emerging talent. He is a frequent lecturer at design schools as well as global design conferences, where he shares insights on the evolving workplace and empowers the next generation of designers to create with purpose and authenticity.
