Designer & Proprietor
Roughing It In Style
Work in wood, metal, light, & space.
A collection of the projects I’ve shaped & the process behind them.
Hey, I’m Erik.
I'm the Proprietor of Roughing It In Style, a second-generation destination furnishings and interior design business with showrooms in Harshaw, WI and Fort Collins, CO.
This is where my work lives. Interior design, product design, photography, drawing, and the writing I do about craft, business, and how people actually live in their spaces.
I pick up a camera or a pencil because it forces me to truly see the world. That same instinct drives everything here, the designs, the projects, the opinions, and the things I notice that most people walk past.
Things of quality have no fear of time.
-
It starts with a conversation, an idea, or a spark.
Imagine and begin to shape what could be. -
This is where the work begins. Sketching, refining, and making sure every detail serves the idea.
-
Materials, craftsmanship, follow-through.
The goal is simple. Make something worth keeping.
