Saskatoon-based designer Emma Williams began her career as a visual artist, drawn to the endless possibilities of form, light, colour, line and texture. Over the years she’s found herself gravitating towards the interior spaces of Architecture and Interior Design. Her fascination with human behaviour and the psychology of how people live, work and play led her to complete a Masters of Interior Architecture and Design at the Academy of Art University, San Francisco.
Emma believes true design goes beyond what we see -- it is also how we feel. It is an expression of all that we are as people, as a society, and as human beings. Through spending time in nature, travelling around the world, raising her children, listening to music, eating great food, spending late nights in the studio and having great conversations with friends, Emma has had an array of experiences that influence her every design expression. Each project is a journey and she loves the relationships she creates along the way.
I never gave up painting; I just changed my palette. Ray EamesWhat People Are Saying
“Emma has a Scandinavian/prairie sensibility, one that I completely respond to. She has an impeccable eye for detail; if something is a tiny fraction off, she will spot it and make the necessary adjustments. Emma came up with details that enhanced the overall concept of each space she worked on in our home. She understood intrinsically what the overall look and feel of the renovation would be and helped us imagine what what it would look like..”
— Marie LANNOO
“We worked with Emma from the start of the design process to the final construction. We did a complete renovation of our kitchen and living room. Emma is creative, talented, knowledgeable and meticulous in her designs. Emma shared different ideas by bringing samples of products to our home, joining us at local stores and using social media and internet searches. She used 3D computer renderings to input different ideas to help with the visualization of the space. We recommend Emma for your design projects.”
— Tammy and Rob FRANK
“Our project included structural changes to a load-bearing wall being removed and a beam installed. From the outset, Emma displayed her keen eye for style and practicality! She met with us initially and took our input and ideas. Her skills at rendering helped us visualize the space before it appeared, which was very helpful. Emma worked with trades and other design professionals to ensure the job was done properly. Emma is a great designer and we would highly recommend her services for any and all design needs. She is very personable and easy to work with. Thank you Emma!”
