THE MAP OF INFLUENCE

A Return to Form

North by Friday is my design studio, an evolving practice shaped by experience, study, and a deep respect for how spaces function in real life.

I’m Jessica, an interior architecture student currently accepting decorating projects and consulting work while finishing my degree. Before this, I spent 14 years in global health communications, where I learned to think strategically, listen carefully, and design solutions that serve people first.

That background informs everything I do. I believe form should follow function, and that the most beautiful spaces are the ones that work effortlessly for the people who live in them. My perspective has been shaped by living on East, West, and now the ‘Third’ Coast, each place influencing how I think about space, light, and livability.

At its core, North by Friday is about creating thoughtful interiors that feel grounded, personal, and quietly enduring.

Meet Friday

I adopted Friday while living in our small, cedar-shingled cottage on Cape Cod. Naming her after an infamous Kennedy pup felt like the only option.

In 2023 I returned home to Northern Michigan, to our sandy beaches, reaching trees, and the dance of light on the water. There's a feeling that comes with arriving here, whether it's for a long weekend or for good. Something within you settles.

By Friday Studio honors the feeling of exhaling the moment the coastline is within view while providing a playful nod to my faithful companion.

Every great space starts with a conversation.
