PORTFOLIO

Hi, I'm Elsie Judy.

I’m an interior designer based in the San Francisco Bay Area with over six years of experience across high-end residential design, staging, and project coordination.

My experience spans the design process from concept development and space planning through FF&E sourcing, material selection, design documentation, vendor coordination, and installation. I’m particularly drawn to residential interiors that balance thoughtful planning, refined materiality, and a strong sense of individuality.

I’m interested in high-end residential and boutique hospitality design, with a focus on creating spaces that feel elevated, intentional, and deeply considered. I bring a detail-oriented approach to both the creative and practical sides of a project, and I value the collaboration required to carry a design from an initial concept through execution.
