Featured Guest:
Ellen Walker from Red Deer County in Alberta Canada is the Principal Interior Designer of Ellen Walker Design Group. She loves to travel and draws inspiration from nature, art, architecture, beautiful fabrics, and furniture wherever she happens to be. Interior design, however, encompasses more than a visual aesthetic. Great design is characterized by functionality, timeless style, and a positive emotional connection with those who use the space.
She is an industry leader in incorporating the psychology of design into her projects and solves people's design problems. She has access to design, psychology, and environment experts, allowing her to deeply understand what people need in their spaces to live better.
Throughout the years, she's worked on renovations ranging from one room to a full house. In addition, she's worked on new builds that vary from small to large projects in residential and commercial spaces. She's obsessed with creating and remodeling spaces of all stories.
