Erica Studio E Design Co.

Designers pick the finishes. Trades make them work. This week Mike Holmes Jr. and Ian MacFayden sit down with Erica of Studio E Design Co. to find out what really happens when the drawings hit the drywall.Erica breaks down how she designs spaces people actually live in - where homeowners waste money, which trends age badly, and why the best builds start with the designer and the trades in the same room instead of pointing at each other over a change order.Whether you swing a hammer, sign the cheques, or just doomscroll reno content at 1am, there's something in here for you.Follow Erica at @studioedesignco
