Meet Our Founder
Candice Cervantes, Principal Interior Designer
Hey there, I’m Candice – the founder, principal interior designer & decorator, and creative spirit behind El Studio Design. For me, great design is about creating a feeling. A space that tells a story. A place you genuinely love spending time in.
I’ve always been fascinated by the way design can shape our experiences. What textures invite us to linger? What colors lift our mood? Every project starts by asking the question “How do we want this space to feel?” From there, it’s all about thoughtfully creating a sense of connection and flow throughout the room or home.
When I’m not picking out materials or hunting for the perfect vintage piece, you’ll likely find me hanging out with my Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Wednesday, exploring Portland’s food scene, or sinking into a good film.
Let's create something beautiful together.
The el studio design Experience
She comes up with solutions that I would never have thought of
Candice is a talented and experienced designer, and I’m very impressed with her capabilities and the jobs she has worked on. She’s helped me solve design problems in a couple of different homes. She is easy to work with, considers my personal taste, and comes up with solutions that I would never have thought of.

She really took the time to listen and understand my vision
Candice is amazing and so easy to work with! I worked with her to redesign my room and she really took the time to listen and understand my vision. She provided me with a couple of design versions based off my style, along with links to the furniture and where to purchase the items. Candice absolutely nailed everything I was looking for and I can't wait to work with her again in the future.
