Henricksen and Allsteel's Holiday Cookie Bake Off in Chicago raises $3,250 to support The Night Ministry News + Insights Henricksen and Allsteel’s Cookie Bake Off for a Cause Henricksen and Allsteel's Holiday Cookie Bake Off in Chicago raises $3,250 to support The Night Ministry Apr 30, 2025 Allsteel and Henricksen hosted their annual Holiday Cookie Bake Off & Exchange to benefit The Night Ministry. The event brought festive fun and philanthropy together, collecting donations and in-kind items to support The Night Ministry’s mission of providing human connection, housing support, and health care to individuals unhoused or experiencing poverty. It is the second year that The Night Ministry has been selected as the charity partner for the event. As a company that frequently hosts events benefiting local nonprofits, philanthropy is integral to its culture. “It’s part of who we are as a company,” shared Jess Weber, Architecture and Design Manager at Henricksen. Henricksen and Allsteel chose The Night Ministry as their charity partner because they recognize the hardships that winter brings to those experiencing homelessness and want to support an organization making a meaningful impact. The event featured 24 bakers from local architecture and design firms, project managers, and general contractors who created an array of delicious and visually stunning cookies. A panel from the renowned Alliance Bakery judged the cookies on taste and presentation, while attendees could vote for the “People’s Choice” winner by donating. The Bakeoff brought together approximately 120 attendees, fostering camaraderie and holiday cheer while supporting a vital cause. In addition to enjoying the sweet treats, attendees were encouraged to contribute physical items for The Night Ministry’s clients, such as hygiene supplies, cold-weather gear, gift cards, and transit passes. The event exceeded its initial fundraising goal of $2,000, raising $3,250 to support The Night Ministry’s critical programs and services.

- Celebrating Women's History Month with Annie Lee from ENVCelebrating Women's History Month with Annie Lee from ENV
This Women's History Month, Henricksen honors Annie Lee, Principal of Interior Design at ENV, who is inspired by her grandmother's legacy of resilience and leadership. News + Insights Celebrating Women's History Month with Annie Lee from ENV This Women's History Month, Henricksen honors Annie Lee, Principal of Interior Design at ENV, who is inspired by her grandmother's legacy of resilience and leadership. Mar 25, 2025 This Women's History Month, we're honored to celebrate Annie Lee, IIDA, NCIDQ, WELL AP, LEED AP ID+C, and Principal of Interior Design at ENV. Annie's strength and vision are deeply rooted in the remarkable women in her life, especially her grandmother, who broke barriers in early 20th-century Korea. Her grandmother's story is one of unwavering resilience and courage — from secretly teaching herself to read to building a business that supported her six children after becoming a young widow. She led with ingenuity, warmth, and a deep commitment to genuine connections. Here's how Annie shares the story of her incredible grandmother: "My family has been blessed with strong, impactful women leaders - my mom, aunts, grandmothers, and cousins - many of whom are owners, founders, teachers, and directors, guiding their teams to succeed. While they have all influenced me in one way or another, I would like to spotlight one woman, my paternal grandmother. Her story is one of ambition, perseverance, and a profound need to prevail in an unstable, harsh, and often discouraging environment. These qualities shaped her life and left a lasting imprint on me and everyone around her. My grandmother, born in 1912, overcame extraordinary challenges during Korea’s tumultuous times, including the Japanese occupation and the Korean War. Against societal norms, she taught herself to read and write in secret, later becoming a widow who tirelessly ensured her six children received a college education. She built a thriving Korean dress business, traveling far for the finest materials and managing every detail with determination and skill. Her warmth, resilience, and sharp instincts left an enduring impression on everyone who knew her. Her legacy lives on in how I approach my life. I dress with intention, am fully present in my interactions, and always lead with kindness. She taught me that leadership comes not from dominating others but from empowering them and creating genuine connections. My grandmother was an innovator, a mentor, and an unwavering force of strength. As I reflect on her incredible life during Women's History Month, I am reminded of the countless women who, like my grandmother, quietly shape the world in their unique ways," explained Annie. Annie takes the lessons she's learned from her grandmother to heart, bringing intention and grace to her leadership role. To Annie, even small gestures like a heartfelt handshake can speak volumes about connection and shared respect. Her passion for uplifting others shines through in her work at ENV, particularly in her newest initiative, ENV U (ENV University). Launching this April, ENV U will provide a platform for team members to share knowledge and grow together, building a culture of collaboration and mutual respect. ENV U ensures that every team member has the opportunity to shine, just as Annie's grandmother did for others throughout her life.

This Women's History Month, we honor Rosemary Vespo from Global Furniture Group. Inspired by strong women, she leads with empathy, supports her community, and promotes inclusivity. News + Insights Celebrating Women's History Month with Rosemary Vespo from Global Furniture Group This Women's History Month, we honor Rosemary Vespo from Global Furniture Group. Inspired by strong women, she leads with empathy, supports her community, and promotes inclusivity. Mar 18, 2025 This Women’s History Month, Henricksen is honoring remarkable women in our industry, thoughtfully nominated by our employees for their inspiration and impact. Today, we feature Rosemary Vespo, Territory Manager, Dealer Sales – Chicago at Global Furniture Group in Chicago, IL. Rosemary draws inspiration from women in her life and throughout history. This includes historical advocates for change, leaders at Global who foster a culture of support, and especially the women in her family, particularly her grandmother, who emigrated to the U.S. from Italy in her twenties. These women motivate Rosemary to lead with empathy, promote inclusivity, and ensure everyone feels heard and appreciated. Rosemary consistently strives to support those around her, and her peers describe her as embodying the positivity we hope to see in the world. She serves as the Associate Board Co-Chair for Designs for Dignity, dedicating nearly ten years to transforming non-profit environments through pro-bono design services. Throughout her design career, Rosemary has faced several challenges as a woman, including gender bias and the need to prove her expertise to earn respect. Despite these obstacles, she encourages women to trust their instincts, lead passionately, and build confidence in their profession. Recently, she participated in a career day at her all-girls Catholic high school. It was especially rewarding for her to see herself in the students' enthusiasm and to assure them they were on the right path. Inspired by the unwavering confidence of professional rugby athlete Ilona Maher, Rosemary urges women to overcome imposter syndrome and make decisions based on their goals and values. During Women's History Month and beyond, she emphasizes the importance of women uplifting one another, quoting Kate Hodges: “Behind every great woman is another great woman.” Share Copy link Facebook LinkedIn Pinterest More News + Insights Designing for Healing: How Henricksen is Shaping the Future of Behavioral Health Spaces February 13, 2026 Discover how behavioral health environments balance safety, comfort, and healing—featuring real project insights, lessons learned, and innovative solutions shaping modern care spaces.

Celebrating Tiffany Edwards this Black History Month as she shares her journey, inspirations, and why representation, connection, and showing up fully truly matter. News + Insights Celebrating Black History Month with Tiffany Edwards Celebrating Tiffany Edwards this Black History Month as she shares her journey, inspirations, and why representation, connection, and showing up fully truly matter. Feb 11, 2026 This Black History Month, we’re proud to spotlight Tiffany Edwards, Project Coordinator, who has been part of the Henricksen team since 2017. Tiffany began her journey with Henricksen in our New York office before relocating to Atlanta, and her experience reflects the importance of belonging, representation, and being able to show up fully as yourself. For Tiffany, Black History Month is a time to honor the trailblazers who came before her and opened doors. Each year, she finds herself learning something new about Black leaders who shaped history. One current source of inspiration is Michelle Obama, whose leadership Tiffany admires for its strength, poise, and authenticity. She shared how Michelle Obama’s willingness to be open about mental health helped normalize meaningful conversations for black women, showing that strength and vulnerability can coexist. For Tiffany, progress grows through education, exposure, and representation. She values opportunities to strengthen diversity across teams and leadership, and pointed to recurring cultural initiatives, such as potlucks in the New York office, as examples of how shared stories and traditions can bring people together and foster deeper connection and understanding. This Black History Month, Tiffany and her family are honoring history by visiting the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Museum, and she believes the celebration should extend beyond a single month. From schools highlighting leaders of color year-round to workplaces consistently uplifting diverse voices, Tiffany reminds us that representation matters more than we sometimes realize, especially until you experience it yourself. We’re grateful Tiffany shared her perspective and proud to have her as part of the Henricksen team.
