We founded Space Design Collective with a shared vision: to create spaces where people truly thrive.
Live well, by design.
For us, design isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s about crafting environments that nurture health, happiness, and balance for everyone who inhabits them.
Our diverse perspectives and deep passion for design allow us to bring something unique to every project we take on.
About Our Founders
Space Design Collective was founded by Genna Jacobs-Freeman and Erik Stewart, a partnership born from shared values, passion for design, and complementary expertise. Together, they bring decades of experience in design, project management, and client care.
Genna’s keen eye for detail and Erik’s innovative approach to storytelling through interiors result in spaces that resonate on a deeply personal level.

With a foundation in managing large-scale programs and a passion for creating environments that transform how people live and feel, she brings a rare blend of strategy, creativity, and soul to every project.
As co-founder of Space Design Collective, Genna unites her talent for systems thinking with her deep commitment to neuroaesthetics—the science of how our surroundings influence emotional and physical well-being. Through thoughtful use of light, color, texture, and spatial flow, she crafts interiors that support calm, clarity, and joy. Her work is grounded in purpose, executed with precision, and always guided by the belief that design is a powerful catalyst for well-being.
Genna is also the founding force behind the Interior Design Society – Atlanta Chapter, expanding one of the nation’s most respected design organizations into a new hub for creativity, education, and ethical leadership. Under her guidance, IDS Atlanta is poised to become a vibrant community for designers seeking mentorship, collaboration, and inspiration. The chapter reflects the same values that define Genna’s work: balance, connection, and the pursuit of beauty that enhances everyday life.
