Founder / Interior Decorator

Emily Guthrie

At Guthrie Interiors, every space is designed with one goal in mind—you! Our approach is to create interiors that are not only beautiful and functional, but deeply reflective of each client’s lifestyle, vision, and personality.

With a refined eye for detail and a strong foundation in interior design, Emily leads projects with a focus on what matters most to you—how your space looks, feels, and functions in everyday life. From initial concept through final installation, each element is thoughtfully considered, including space planning, layout optimization, color and material selection, furnishings, and overall project coordination.

Your experience is centered on collaboration. Rather than a one-size-fits-all approach, she works closely with you to understand your goals, preferences, and how you want your space to live and perform. The result is a tailored design that feels cohesive, personal, and effortlessly functional.

Whether you’re designing a home, enhancing a commercial space, elevating a hospitality property, or refreshing a residential rental, you can expect a thoughtful balance of creativity, expertise, and attention to detail. With extensive industry knowledge and experience and ongoing exposure to the latest trends and innovations, every project benefits from fresh ideas and well-informed design decisions.

Above all, Emily is dedicated to making the process smooth, engaging, and fun—so your vision comes to life in a way that feels seamless from start to finish.
