LEADERSHIP

Emily Waugh

Founder + Principal Designer

At just 10 years old, Emily found herself enthralled by design shows and spent countless hours assisting her dad with projects around the house. From that early age, she was captivated by the transformative power of design and its ability to enhance people’s lives. With her passion for design, Emily went on to earn her Bachelor of Applied Arts in Interior Design from Central Michigan University, where she also minored in Leadership.

Emily quickly established herself as a capable leader in the field by successfully designing and managing large-scale projects from start to finish. Even in the early stages of her career, she demonstrated her aptitude for both creative design and business management, which ultimately led her to found W Haus of Design in 2017.

Emily takes a collaborative approach to design, working closely with her clients to understand their needs and preferences. She is known for her exceptional eye for detail, her ability to bring a client's vision to life, and her passion for creating meaningful spaces that capture her client’s personal style. When she’s not designing, Emily enjoys traveling, trying new restaurants, and spending time with her family and friends.

Testimonials

“W Haus of Design has been fantastic to work with on my new home. Emily’s attention to detail and organizational skills made the design process way less daunting. She explained her design decisions thoroughly and in a way that made sense for my non-designer mind. I really enjoyed working with Emily and highly recommend her and W Haus of Design for any interior design needs!”

Mark and Jennifer | Twin Lake, MI

“My wife and I hired Emily to completely remodel our condo. This was an extensive project and Emily made the entire process smooth, fun, and enjoyable. Emily did all the extensive research and leg work. This really allowed us to enjoy the process, and more importantly, get the exact look we were looking for. We would highly recommend Emily to anyone looking for design help for their home or business.”
