Emily Cade
Owner / Principal Designer
Emily embarked on her professional journey in the world of fashion, having earned a degree in fashion design. Following in her father's footsteps, she ventured into the vibrant entertainment industry, initially working as a fashion stylist for film, print, and music videos. However, her path eventually led her towards set design and interior styling, where she discovered her true passion for creating beautiful and functional spaces.
After an illustrious 10-year career in the entertainment industry, Emily decided to further refine her skills and knowledge by returning to school to study interior design. Over the next several years, she immersed herself in various facets of the design industry, gaining valuable experience by collaborating with design firms, builders, and developers on luxury new build homes. She also contributed her expertise to sales and showroom design at one of Toronto’s most esteemed luxury furniture showrooms.
Following a period of freelancing and dedicating herself to honing her craft, Emily took a momentous step and established her own design studio. In 2012, she proudly launched "Emily Cade Design," which specialized in offering curated luxury design services to discerning clients.
Emily's exceptional talent and dedication to her craft did not go unnoticed. Her remarkable work caught the attention of prominent design publications in Canada, including House & Home and Style at Home magazines, where her designs were featured and celebrated.
Outside of her thriving career, Emily finds joy and fulfillment in her personal life. Currently residing in Oakville, she shares her life with her two children and their cherished canine companions, creating a harmonious and loving home environment that inspires her design creativity.
