About Erica Lugbill
Erica Lugbill is the founder and creative director of Lugbill Designs, a Chicago interior design firm. Her passion for interior design was cultivated through her education, a love of travel, fashion and her years spent working as a lead designer at several high-end design firms. Recognizing a need in the market for a bespoke design service specializing in both decor and full renovations, Erica and her husband, Justin, established Lugbill Designs in 2010.
Never one to shy away from projects that require a gut renovation or the coordination of construction, Erica is passionate about making clients homes work for them in a way that only true customization can achieve. Her relaxed and energetic approach lends itself to a fun and collaborative design process. This consistent and approachable communication makes working with Erica a distinctive experience and results in a space that truly embodies a client's personality and lifestyle.

Erica thrives taking client ideas, tastes, and lifestyles, then designing spaces that reflect the individual(s). Her experience working with a variety of residential spaces, styles, and budgets in the Chicago area makes Erica and her team a versatile fit for any project. Good design is never put ahead of functionality and she designs with the belief that great comfort and attainable luxury is not only possible, but an essential part of elevating everyday life.
"My job as a designer is not to tell you what your space should be.
My job is to listen to you, give you confidence, and guide you through the design process until your vision is a reality."

Our process
1. Consultation
During a complimentary in-home consultation, we'll work with you to identify your wants and needs in order to determine an aesthetic direction as well as what the practical needs of your space are. We'll also get what is necessary to provide detailed estimates upfront.
2. Design
From there, we get to work on the details of your project. With your input (as desired), we'll present you with selection options and recommendations, mood boards, technical drawings (eg. electrical plans), 3d renderings, etc. We'll collaborate with you along the way to ensure your vision for the space is coming to life.
3. Installation
We manage your project from start to finish which means all installation coordination, contractor management and payment is handled by our team (if desired). All you have to think about is how much you're going to love your home!
