About Erica

For more than a decade, Erica Burns Interiors has provided full-service interior design services to clients in Washington, DC, and along the East Coast. Erica firmly believes that her clients’ homes should reflect their unique personalities. While the firm’s projects have spanned many locations and styles, the one common theme that can be found throughout each project is Erica’s attention to detail and thoughtful editing, resulting in homes that are timeless and classic, with a touch of the unexpected.

Originally from the Southeast, Erica graduated from the University of Florida’s College of Design, Construction & Planning. She began her career in the construction industry, eventually finding her niche in residential design. Drawing on her strong understanding of the construction process, Erica is well equipped to guide clients in their selection of every detail, from plumbing fixtures and door hardware to furniture and window treatments. Her involvement throughout design and construction not only brings efficiency to the process but also ensures that the interior elements are seamlessly integrated with the architecture of the home.

Erica’s work has been featured in a number of publications, including Architectural Digest, Veranda, Southern Home, and The Wall Street Journal. Erica lives in Bethesda with her husband and two daughters.

Our Process

Erica may be known for designing aesthetically beautiful spaces, but she really shines when given the opportunity to collaborate closely with architects and builders to ensure the designs and spatial construction are seamlessly integrated. A trusted member of the local design community, Erica and her team are involved in every aspect of the process, from schematic design through construction and furniture installation. Erica takes pride in her ability to listen to her clients and understand how they live, resulting in a home that is not only tailored to each individual client, but reflects their vision.

  • Whether you're building from the ground up or reimagining your existing space, the EBI team will be there with you every step of the way. With Erica providing overall design direction, each project is carefully managed by an experienced designer/project manager. Additional oversight is provided by Brigid, Director of Operations, to ensure schedule, budget, and client expectations are met. As a team, we work closely with architects, builders, contractors, custom furniture makers and workrooms, and skilled artisans to bring our vision to life.
