Salt Prairie

Salt Prairie Studio

Interior Design Consulting · Calgary, AB

Coastal light,
prairie warmth.

Scandinavian-inspired interiors for new-build homes, bringing character to the spaces builders leave blank.

Portrait of the Salt Prairie designer

The Story

Two horizons,
one style.

Salt Prairie is named for two places: the sun-bleached coast of the Algarve, where I grew up, and the open Alberta prairie I now call home. That contrast, coastal light meeting prairie warmth, is the whole design philosophy in two words.

I'm an architecture graduate who works with new-build homeowners across Calgary to take a builder's blank canvas and turn it into something layered, warm, and unmistakably yours, always through a clean, Scandinavian-inspired lens suited to long prairie winters and big prairie light.

No renovation required. Just thoughtful space planning, warm materials, and a point of view.

FAQ

Good to know

Do you work outside Calgary?

E-Design is fully remote, so it works anywhere. In-person consults and Full Styling are currently available in Calgary and the surrounding area.

Can I book you for just one room?

Yes. E-Design is priced per room, so you can start with a single space and add more later.

How long does a project take?

E-Design is delivered within 7 business days. New Build Starter and Full Styling timelines depend on scope and are confirmed after our discovery call.

What if I don't love the plan?

E-Design includes one round of revisions. For in-person packages, we check in throughout so the direction feels right before anything is sourced or ordered.

Do I need to already know my style?

Not at all. Part of the discovery call is figuring that out together, most people arrive with a feeling rather than a fully formed plan.
