our philosophy
the heart of our story
Our design approach is deeply intentional, always starting with the surrounding environment and architectural elements. We believe a home should be a reflection of its inhabitants—their personality, lifestyle, and unique story. Whether we’re designing a residence or boutique commercial space, our work evokes a sense of timelessness

Meet Our
Founder
Hey there, I’m Candice – the founder 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.
