FOUNDER & CHIEF DESIGN OFFICER
AIA | NCARB | CPBD
Gueston Smith is an award winning multidisciplinary designer and visionary builder redefining how the world experiences space. As the Founder and Chief Design Officer of Guesscreative™, he leads a bold movement in modular architecture, mobile infrastructure, and experiential environments—bridging beauty with utility, and design with impact.
What began as a childhood promise to design an accessible home for his sister evolved into a lifelong mission: to elevate how we live, learn, heal, and connect through intentional, scalable, and mobile design. Gueston coined the term Spatial Entrepreneur to describe the fusion where architecture meets innovation, culture, and commerce.
From luxury modular homes and fire-rated prefab communities to mobile retail showrooms, educational trailers, and brand activations, his work challenges the status quo of static real estate. Under his leadership, Guesscreative has become a creative innovation lab, serving high-growth brands, municipalities, and forward-thinking developers.
