Her studio provides an interior design consulting service not limited to individual clients, who need interior design advice for their houses and/or commercial spaces, but to architectural companies; most recently she worked with Robert A.M.

In Manhattan, her recent work includes Saks Fifth Avenue Flagship store; an interior renovation of Del Frisco's double eagle steak house. She has also worked on the interior design of multiple retail projects including Neiman Marcus in Dallas, Royal Caribbean cruise, Primark in King of Prussia as well as hospitality projects including Starbucks Reserve in New York and numerous hotel projects across Asia, Caribbean, and the United States. Her recent boutique hotel project, in which she directed the design, got nominated for the Gold Key Awards 2021, the best guest room upscale category.

She has shared her professional experience and knowledge by mentoring grad students at New York School of Interior Design for the MFA thesis studio course and being a juror for the students’ mid and final terms since 2018.

Sun Her received her Master of Fine Arts degree from the School of Institute of Chicago in Chicago. When she is not “working”, she loves spending her time planning special events and drawing what makes her eyes travel.
