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.
