We’re excited to feature Erica Islas from emiinteriordesign as our Designer Spotlight.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
EMI Interior Design is known for creating spaces that feel both timeless and highly functional, where thoughtful design and everyday livability go hand in hand.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Based in Los Angeles, Erica and her team bring a refined, organic approach to each project, layering materials like limestone, marble, natural woods, and textured finishes with metal and glass to create balance and depth. In the kitchen of actor Jamie Lee Curtis’ guest house, the focus was on maximizing every inch while maintaining a clean, minimal design that feels both elevated and inviting.⠀⠀⠀⠀

“This kitchen was designed to be minimal and highly efficient, with appliances that integrate seamlessly into the space. The Zephyr Valina Under-Cabinet was the perfect solution because it tucks away effortlessly and blends into the shelving. When in use, the slim pull-out visor delivers strong performance without disrupting the overall design.”
