Our Story

Erica Warner

Founder // Principal Designer

Erica Warner is the designer behind Studio Maris, a Southern California-based interior design studio. Her work is warm, layered, and deeply personal - rooted in the belief that a home should be a genuine reflection of the people who live in it.

Growing up on the North Shore of Massachusetts, Erica developed an early obsession with interiors -the kind that had her dragging her family through model homes on vacation just to see how each space felt. She went on to study architecture, and that foundation shapes everything about how she approaches a space today - the structure, the bones, the original details that give a home its character and soul.

Her aesthetic draws from both coasts: classic New England charm and California ease, with an eye for natural materials, vintage finds, and collected pieces that bring history and warmth into a room. She's drawn to spaces that feel lived-in and layered - cozy without being fussy, eclectic without being chaotic.

Erica approaches every project with a deep respect for the home itself. She honors its architecture, its original details, its story - and builds from there, layering in pieces that feel like they've always belonged.

At Studio Maris, the focus is always the same — creating spaces that feel personal, considered, and completely yours.

Beautiful design starts with what matters most: your home, your history, and the life you actually want to live in it.
