About
After graduating from Wayne State University in Detroit, MI, Erika worked her way up to being a designer at By Design Interiors. The studio provides a highly inspiring work environment that allows each designer to imagine, create and connect with clients and craftspeople. With a love for travel and adventure, Erika has backpacked Europe, toured China and has even participated in 'Couchsurfing!' She is eagerly awaiting her next travel adventure.... Erika has worked with other designers at By Design on several award-winning projects, including three Houston's Best Awards. A beautiful bathroom remodel was highlighted in the Houston House and Home Magazine for July 2011. Throughout the year, Erika attends continuing education classes and seminars on various topics. Additionally, Erika actively creates artwork, jewelry, and other crafty projects.
Services Offered
By Design Interiors is a full service design studio directed towards highly individualized projects ranging from small scale residential updates to full new construction commercial and residential projects. Erika Barczak works within numerous design and life styles to create spaces that are truly reminiscent her of clients. Erika's expertise may be used for simple a paint color consultation to designing a complete space from the ground up. By firmly believing that each space is completely designed for someone else's needs and enjoyment, Erika prefers projects where the clients take on highly collaborative roles in the design process. The "it's all about you" approach to design has allowed Erika to create highly functional and aesthetically pleasing spaces time and again.
