While the access to all kinds of art and design in Brooklyn was unmatched, she was drawn to the outdoor lifestyle of Colorado, and the endless opportunities to challenge and push the design of the Grand Valley. Erin’s design expertise focuses primarily on our commercial projects, as well as residential interiors and remodels.
