About Gueston Smith : Gueston Smith, founder and CEO of Guesscreative LLC and Head of Design at Kubed Living, stands out in the design world for his innovative approach to prefab structures and custom-modified shipping container spaces. A USC School of Architecture graduate, Gueston's journey was inspired by a promise to his late special needs sister, Talyia, fueling his passion for empathetic and accessible design. His work at Guesscreative transforms brand identities into entrepreneurial tools, while his designs at Kubed Living push the boundaries of eco-friendly and healthy prefab homes. Beyond architecture, Gueston is a full instructor of Jeet Kune Do, embodying the connection between mind and body in his personal and professional life. With a drive to create spaces that foster a sense of self and community, Gueston's designs are a testament to the power of creativity and imagination in overcoming humanity’s challenges.
STATEMENT OF ART:
My philosophy is simple: by reflecting my authentic self in my work, I become a catalyst for self-reflection. I see future spaces as vessels for human potential - adaptable spaces, spaces built for connection, and environments that inspire and empower. I believe in the power of creativity, design thinking and imagination to overcome challenges and redefine what's possible.
