LOOK AT OUR TEAM
[we promise they’re beautiful]
LEAD DESIGNERS
Lead designers set the creative vision and direction for each project. They work closely with clients to understand their goals, lifestyle, and aspirations, then translate those ideas into a cohesive design concept. From overall spatial planning to the final aesthetic, principal designers ensure that every decision reflects the project’s vision and intent.
They also provide leadership within the project’s team, mentoring detail designers, collaborating with contractors, and overseeing the design process from concept to completion. At the center of every successful design is a principal designer who transforms ideas into reality.

PRINCIPAL DESIGNER
I guess I am the head cheese – the designer in charge. I’m not sure what to write about myself. However, what I do know is that I make client’s spaces a reflection of their awesome selves. I create a vision and the entire office helps make it come true. Yes, I have won some awards, gotten some degrees, but it’s the staff at ELDS that truly makes my design vision a reality.

LEAD DESIGNER
We were looking for a talented, lead design staff member with buckets of experience, and the word on the street is... Crystal is amazing... and....SHE IS! Crystal has waltzed into our happy offices bringing joy, experience, great sourdough bread recipes, her lovely family, and passion for artful and functional living. She leads major projects and our clientele love her...she makes their projects run smoothly and look gorgeous.
DETAIL & ASSISTANT DESIGNERS
Detail designers are the driving force behind a successful project. Guided by the vision of lead designers, they execute precise drawings, assist in selecting building products and finishes, and compile the extensive data and documentation required to keep projects on track. They bring order, clarity, and creativity to every stage of the design process, ensuring that no detail is overlooked.
Simply put, detail designers keep our projects running seamlessly, and we couldn’t do what we do without them.

DETAIL DESIGNER
Kaylee is my dream gal. She shocks my socks off with her communication style, attention to detail, as well level of knowledge for her minimal years of experience. I see big things for this lady. Watch for her as she gains experience…someday she will be leading massive projects. Her best kept secret? She’s an award winning fiddle player from the sticks…for real. How can you not adore her? HA!

ASSISTANT DESIGNER
Clarissa, like many of our favorite employees, came to us in an unexpected magical way! She has since gracefully swept into our lives like a fresh blueberry scone... delightful to the palate, light, and sweet. Clarissa's experience, taste level, and energy make her a great fit for our team. I am looking forward to utilizing her experience as well as her thoughtful approach to luxury design. Clarissa will be implementing my overall vision on some unique and special projects that I can't wait to unveil.

DETAIL DESIGNER
Cathy is one of the softest spoken, kindest humans. She is beautiful inside and out, and equally as talented. We are lucky to have her...she came over to ELDS with Crystal, as she has been Crystal's Detail Designer for a few years! The two work gloriously in tandem. Cathy is one of those people that you instantly feel is a kindred spirit. She makes major portions of our projects come alive in all of the best ways.
SUPPORT STAFF
Our support staff are the steady hands that keep every project moving forward. While you may not hear from them as often, their role is vital. From coordinating initial client conversations to managing invoices and ensuring the many moving parts of a project stay organized, the support staff handles it all.
They take care of the nuts and bolts of daily operations with precision and care, allowing our design team to focus fully on the creative process. By keeping the behind-the-scenes details running smoothly, our support staff make sure the client experience is seamless from start to finish.

BUSINESS MANAGER
Oh Beth... we breathe so much deeper when Beth is around. Beth was a literal God send. We are grateful for the panache and beautiful vibes she adds to our work family lives. She keeps us overly organized, clean, presentable, loving, and running with the sparkle of a well polished chandelier. She is our mother hen. She ensures clients are well loved, employees are taken care of, and that our focus is on others and that we as people and as a team meet their needs.

TECHNICAL DIRECTOR
Technically Lee doesn’t work here…however, he is stuck with all of us women because he married me. Lucky me! Lee is our technical support. I am convinced he knows everything. We rely on his incredible innovation to install major parts of our designs.

PURCHASING MANAGER
Tiffany is in charge of anything relating to purchases. On any given day you can see her managing our warehouse with a smile on her face. She knows how to get things done and can take care of any of our general product information, pricing, and shipping needs. We wouldn’t trade her for any suave dude with huge muscles.

RESOURCES MANAGER
Debbie might be quiet and kind, but she’s our organizational wizard! She manages all the resources-- the samples and catalogs that help bring our creative visions to life. While designers dive into their creative chaos, Debbie swoops in to keep everything tidy and current, making sure the magic happens seamlessly. Her growth mindset and steady support make her our behind-the-scenes superhero. Though she quietly works, her impact is loud and clear!
