EKR Interior Design

BEFORE & AFTER | The RAD Haus, Asheville⁠ ⁠ Transforming spaces like this is what we live for! Conversion of a family basement in the River Arts District into an uber-convenient hideaway for the modern Airbnb traveler. Reuse, adding value, and longevity became the three guiding principles for the budget-conscious clients, and were rigorously applied across the selections for furnishings, art, and accessories. ⁠ ⁠ The reconfigured layout, fresh paint, and cork flooring allow natural light to filter throughout, making the compact apartment feel airy and spacious.⁠ The result is an apartment that feels local and lively.⁠ ⁠ The space turns heads on Airbnb and guests rave about the comfort and design. #ekrinteriordesign ⁠ ⁠.

This month, we're diving into an exciting new vacation rental design project, and to kick the procurement process off we thought we’d share a behind-the-scenes look at the essential criteria we use for every selection!⁠ ⁠ • 𝗗𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗯𝐢𝝞𝐢𝘁𝘆 │ Is the craftsmanship and material quality sound? Will it age gracefully and provide an optimal ROI?⁠ ⁠ • 𝗖𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 & 𝗠𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗻𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 | How easy is it to clean and maintain? Can it simplify the annual upkeep for owners?⁠ ⁠ • 𝗦𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 | Is the manufacturer reliable and eco-friendly? Does the item have a minimal environmental impact?⁠ ⁠ • 𝗦𝗮𝗳𝗲𝘁𝘆 │ 83% of STR incidents are slips, trips, and falls. How can our selections help prevent accidents? What signage can we implement to ensure guests know what to do in the event of an emergency?⁠ ⁠ • 𝗔𝗻𝘁𝐢𝗰𝐢𝗽𝗮𝘁𝝾𝗿𝘆 𝗗𝗲𝘀𝐢𝗴𝗻 & 𝗙𝘂𝗻𝗰𝘁𝐢𝝾𝗻𝗮𝝞𝐢𝘁𝘆 │ How can this piece adapt to guest needs? Is it easy to get in/out of?⁠ ⁠ • 𝗚𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗘𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝐢𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 │ How will it enhance the guest experience? Does it connect to the home’s setting and contribute to its unique atmosphere?⁠ ⁠ As we touch, feel, and test each piece, we consider every detail from the perspectives of a homeowner, property manager, investor, housekeeper, and guest, ensuring it meets the highest standards for everyone involved.⁠ ⁠ What criteria do you use when adding new pieces to your home or rental? Share your thoughts in the comments below so we can all continue to design mindfully and effectively!⁠ • #ekrinteriordesign #airbnb #vacationrentaldesign #vacationrentaldesigner #shorttermrental #airbnbdesign #vrbo #hospitalitydesign #guestexperience #currentdesignsituation #designinspiration #interiordetails #interiordesign #designhacks

A first whole house design from EKR! The client had very specific wants for the design and we created a site-specific design for her hillside lot that optimizes the beautiful setting and connects to the outdoors. Super proud of this one and the amazing build by @ofarrellbuilders!

BEFORE & AFTER | Mid-Century Ranch, Asheville⁠ ⁠ This quintessential ranch home was gracefully renovated and reconfigured to ensure the rooms made the most sense for how this young family would use them. It is a beautiful home to be lived in, not tiptoed around. #ekr_midcenturyranch #ekrinteriordesign⁠ ⁠ Photography by: Open Door Photography #beforeafter #kitchen #kitchendesign #kitchensofinstagram #morethanadesign #fullrenovation #timelessdesign #designproject #interiordetails #homeinspiration #houseenvy #homeremodel #timelessinteriors #interiordesigner #seekthesimplicity #interiordesign #stylishinteriors #interiors #designinspiration #interiorstyle #ashevilleinteriordesign #ncinteriordesign
