Meet Emily Roose: Founder & Principal Designer

Emily Roose Interiors is a full-service interior design studio creating refined, deeply livable homes throughout Franklin, Nashville, and Middle Tennessee. Known for a balanced approach that blends warmth, sophistication, and architectural detail, the studio specializes in new construction homes, large-scale renovations, and full-home furnishings designed to support the way clients truly live.

Founder and principal designer Emily Roose brings a multi-disciplinary perspective shaped by years of experience in luxury residential design, brand strategy, visual storytelling, and custom product development. Her work reflects a deep understanding of how beauty, functionality, materials, and emotion come together to create homes that feel refined, effortless, and highly personal.

Before founding Emily Roose Interiors, Emily worked in media and digital content strategy, building a strong foundation in branding, communication, and audience experience—skills that continue to shape the studio’s highly considered approach to design and client experience today.

Emily’s work has been recognized nationally and internationally, with projects featured in Elle Decor, Dwell, Mountain Living, Tahoe Quarterly, HGTV, and other leading publications. She also serves as a national design judge for ASID and has received recognition through respected industry award programs for her work in luxury residential design.

With a background rooted in both design and construction collaboration, the studio works closely with architects, builders, contractors, and artisans to create homes that feel cohesive from the earliest planning stages through final installation. Every detail is approached with care—from architectural finishes and lighting to furnishings, spatial flow, and the subtle layers that shape how a home feels to live in each day. The studio’s aesthetic is grounded in warmth, restraint, natural materials, and timeless livability rather than trend-driven design. Each project is tailored specifically to the client, resulting in homes that feel quietly luxurious, deeply personal, and fully connected to the people living within them.

A Thoughtful Perspective

After building an award-winning portfolio in Lake Tahoe, Emily relocated to Tennessee—bringing a design perspective shaped by architecture, landscape, and lifestyle across multiple regions. A personal health journey also deepened her commitment to wellness-informed design—not as a passing trend, but as a foundational layer of how a home should support everyday life. Materials, finishes, lighting, and spatial decisions are considered not only for their visual impact, but for how a space feels to live in day after day. The result is an approach rooted in warmth, livability, intentional restraint, and a calm sense of refinement.

Collaborative by Nature

Emily Roose Interiors partners closely with architects, builders, contractors, and real estate professionals to support the pace and complexity of high-end residential projects. Experience spanning architectural firms, builder operations, and luxury showrooms brings a deep understanding of the construction process—allowing the studio to navigate complex projects with clarity, coordination, and thoughtful communication throughout every phase. From early planning through final installation, the studio is known for creating a process that feels organized, collaborative, and carefully guided—helping clients move through significant home projects with greater confidence and far less overwhelm.
