Inside the Space | 1: Reintroduction
Opening the Door
Every now and then, a new chapter invites us to pause, exhale, and say hello again.
This moment is ours.
Welcome to Inside the Space — a renewed corner of our world where we share stories, reflections, and design grounded in intention. Consider this a reintroduction to who we are and what guides our work as Space Design Collective.
We’ve evolved, expanded our vision, and deepened our purpose. What stays true is our belief that spaces shape how we feel, how we show up, and how we move through our lives. Whether we’re curating a retreat that restores the spirit, redesigning a home to bring ease back into everyday rhythms, or transforming a property with fresh possibility, our philosophy remains steady: design should feel like an exhale.
This column opens the door to a more intimate conversation — one that reveals the inspirations, decisions, and sensory details behind our work. You’ll get a look at the spaces that challenge us, the ones that surprise us, and the ones that transform us alongside the people we serve.
If you’ve been traveling with us from the beginning, we’re grateful for your presence. If you’re discovering us for the first time, welcome to a place where creativity meets care and every design choice is made with intention.
This is our reintroduction.
A grounding.
A beginning once more.
And we’re so glad you’re here.
Meet the Team Behind the Space
Genna is the visionary heart behind the business side of Space Design Collective. She blends creativity with soulful purpose. Her belief that spaces should support the whole person — their rituals, their rhythms, their growth — shapes every choice she makes. With a love for sensory design and transformative experiences, she guides our work with clarity, imagination, and intention.
Erik brings a steady, grounded presence to every project. His focus on function, balance, and thoughtful detail ensures that each space we touch feels both intentional and deeply livable. He sees opportunities where most see obstacles, turning ideas into clean, refined, tangible realities. His approach is calm, intuitive, and essential to the way we design.
Join Us on the Journey
As this new chapter unfolds, we’re opening the door wider and welcoming you into the world that inspires our work. Inside the Space will be a place to linger, learn, and explore — a space where we share the stories behind the scenes, the sparks of inspiration, the unexpected turns, and the quiet magic that shapes every project.
You’ll witness how a blank room becomes a sanctuary, how retreats grow into immersive experiences that nourish the spirit, and how forgotten properties reveal their hidden potential. We’ll share our wins, our lessons, and the moments that remind us why design is so deeply tied to how we live.
Our hope is that something here resonates — that you feel inspired, grounded, or simply more connected to the places you call home. This is an invitation to walk with us, to peer behind the curtain, to explore with curiosity, and to experience design through a lens of intention and heart.
We’re honored to have you here.
Let’s discover what’s possible, together.
