Ellie believes the home is an artistic expression of the inhabitant and thus honors the client while still creating a passionate design. Studying in the Northwest amidst the nation's top sustainability movement embedded a strong sense of tasteful practicality where function should never sacrifice beauty. She has worked in most aspects of the design field over the past decade and a half, including materials selection, redesign, remodeling, new home construction, furniture design, lighting design, color consultation, and staging for occupied and vacant homes. Her growth as a designer has been influenced by many creative mentors, travel, education, and an undying love of the superior design found in our environment. Ellie views each new client and project as a unique and exciting opportunity to infuse beautiful design into their lives and looks forward to making your acquaintance.
Good design is creating a functional, but beautiful space. Here at Blue Ridge Interiors, we do not follow trends -they stand opposed to the reality that we understand about humankind- that each individual expresses themselves uniquely. It is our honor to design an environment that distinctively conveys who you are. Whether you are looking for a one-room makeover, or a full-scale update, Blue Ridge Interiors will help you maximize your budget while delivering nothing less than an inspired design every time.
A properly staged property highlights your home's assets for better marketing and to obtain the highest value for your home. Using primarily existing furnishings, art, and accessories, Blue Ridge Interiors can completely transform your space in a matter of hours at a fraction of the cost of staging with rental inventory. You will be amazed at how well your home will look online, as well as during showings using our premier services.
"As a realtor, my reputation is on the line each and every time I bring someone in on a listing. Ellie is my go-to Interior Decorator / Home Stager from luxury listings to entry level homes. Many of my sellers have commented that they wish they had brought Ellie in when they first bought the house. Some have even had second thoughts about selling because they like their home so much more after Ellie works her magic! "
"Ellie’s style, taste and professionalism are second to none. She really listened to the vision my family and I had for our home and help us accomplish everything within our budget. I will most certainly be using her for future projects and highly recommend her to anyone who is looking to re-beautify their home."
"I have recommended Ellie to many of my clients and they all have appreciated her gentle but professional approach to staging their homes. She is always available and reliable and I will continue to recommend her."
"Ellie immediately picked up on our style and every option she showed us I loved. She repeatedly went above and beyond to meet deadlines we had set - and made the whole process so easy and stress free for me and my husband. She helped make our house a home - and an incredibly beautiful one at that. I can't wait to use her again and would recommend her to anyone and everyone!"
"Wow! Easy to work with and quickly understands your objectives. From a gutted first floor, the final outcome was even better than I could have imagined. Blue Ridge Interiors was creative, and has excellent contacts with reputable contractors."
