Erin Gasparini
PRINCIPAL DESIGNER + OWNER (B.A.I.D)
It’s me — Hi!
First of all, thanks for being here. It truly never gets old to me that people are willing to put their trust in me to bring their visions to life… it is not a job I take lightly! As someone who has been through the design process what feels like a million times, I understand how daunting the endless to-do list can seem. My hope is to alleviate that stress and make design fun again. I am here for my clients every step of the way, and promise to make the entire process collaborative, insightful, and most importantly enjoyable!

Erin completed her Bachelor of Applied Interior Design (B.A.I.D) at Mount Royal University before starting her career at a multi-disciplinary architecture firm in Calgary working in commercial design. She ultimately built her portfolio in the residential sector designing spec, semi-custom, and custom inner-city homes with a Calgary-based builder prior to founding EGID.
As a designer, Erin’s most valuable quality is her comprehensive understanding of the [new] construction process from both the client and builder point of view — A unique skillset that has helped her forge a path in the industry as a go-to consultant for both builders and homeowners looking for assistance on their residential projects. She is particularly adept when it comes to new, inner-city development having worked on a number of successful infills over the years. She spends A LOT of time on construction sites (R.I.P to many pairs of nice shoes) and is constantly expanding her knowledge to better serve her clients.
Erin approaches all of her projects as if they were her own home. Her client-centred approach to design is all encompassing, taking in to account every detail of the design process from concept to completion. Erin prides herself on her customer service, and truly gets to know her clients to better understand their needs. She believes that the best design reflects the style and the lifestyle of the user.
Above all else, she firmly believes that design should be fun, and promises to meet her clients wherever they are on their design journey. Whether you’ve done this before, or don’t even know where to start, Erin is in your corner, and here to make this an unforgettable experience.
In her spare time, Erin loves travelling, karaoke, good food, wine, typography, golden hour, and quality time with her people. She is witty, a cat person (don’t say a word), and aware that she over uses exclamation points in her emails.
