There’s a ton of festivities going on in and around Atlanta next month, this one I will surely attend! My friends over at Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams Atlanta have invited us to join them for the unveiling of the winning project in SCAD’s At Home: Atlanta Design Contest.

Five students created design boards using stocked merchandise from Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams and were judged by three panelist, MGBW co-founders, Clinton Smith – Editor of Atlanta Homes and Lifestyles Magazine, and noted interior designer Beth Webb. The winning design has been chosen and will be brought to life on November 7th in the MGBW Buckhead Showroom.  Join us!

HI,
I'M ERIKA.

Beyond the Blueprint is a curated journal where legacy, lifestyle, and intentional design converge.

Here, I share stories from the heart of my home and the homes I create—faith-filled reflections, family rhythms, wellness practices, and design inspiration rooted in grace and purpose.

From motherhood and marriage to the sidelines of Friday night lights, each entry offers a glimpse into the layered life I live—and the brands, spaces, and values that support it.

Whether you're here to be inspired, encouraged, or aligned, welcome. This is life beyond the blueprint
