Design With Intention

Elena Whitman founded Cascadia Interiors in 2011 after a decade of designing luxury hospitality spaces across the Pacific Northwest. Her background in architecture gives her a structural eye that most decorators lack β€” she sees how light, proportion, and material intersect to create feeling.

Her design philosophy centers on the idea that great interiors should feel inevitable β€” as though the space was always meant to look this way. Every choice, from the doorknob finish to the sofa silhouette, earns its place through both beauty and purpose.

Based in Seattle, Elena leads a team of four designers who share her commitment to craftsmanship, client collaboration, and the belief that your home should be the most beautiful place you spend your time.
