Erica Marie Chacon, founder of Erica Marie Interiors, believes great design starts with heart. Inspired by the lyrics of “Crowded Table” by The Highwomen—especially the line, “a house with a crowded table and a place by the fire for everyone”—Erica’s work is rooted in the idea of creating spaces where people feel instantly at home.

Growing up, her family moved often for her parents’ work, but no matter where they landed, her parents had a gift: they made every house feel like a warm, welcoming home. Watching them transform spaces left a lasting impression on Erica and set the foundation for her own design journey.

She began by designing elevated, livable interiors for new builds and renovations. Over time, her creative vision expanded, and so did her brand. Today, Erica not only designs homes—she also designs the pieces that live within them. Her collection of furniture, lighting, and objects is crafted with soul, purpose, and a focus on timeless materials. Every piece is made to feel collected—items that tell a story and are meant to be treasured.

Whether she’s designing a home from the ground up or a single piece of lighting or furniture, Erica brings the same thoughtful, intuitive approach. Through her work—both in clients’ homes and in her Atlanta showroom—she continues to build spaces (and things) that bring people together and celebrate the beauty of everyday life.
