  • Summary

  • Join us for an inspiring episode of Room for Every body with guest Sequoyah Hunter-Cuyjet, founder of Harmony in Hue, an interior design firm that embraces community engagement and cultural heritage.

    Sequoyah shares her journey from growing up on Shinnecock territory to designing high-end interiors and finding her voice in advocating for inclusive, meaningful spaces. She dives into her experiences navigating identity as a queer, neurodivergent, Shinnecock and Afro-Indigenous woman in the design world, and the challenges she faces bringing non-Western narratives into interior spaces.

    In this conversation, Sequoyah discusses how her heritage and community-centered approach influence her work, emphasizing the importance of honoring cultural histories and community needs in design. We also explore her belief in "luxury as craft," redefining luxury not by cost but by uniqueness, intention, and cultural storytelling.

    This episode is rich with Sequoyah's insights on decolonizing design, celebrating tactile heirlooms, and creating inclusive environments that genuinely reflect the people they serve.
