Eri Kawaguchi is an environmental designer who creates interior-architecture designs and furniture, as well as branding and graphic design. Eri was born and raised in Japan and has lived in five different countries, and is currently residing near Los Angeles, California. She is passionate about learning different cultures, technology and the way people live and always strives to incorporate these elements of interest into her design concepts. After being exposed to several different cultures, she became eager to solve today’s problems which led to her winning an award in Sustainable Living (social relevance) from the International Interior Design Association in 2016. Eri received a B.S. in Environmental Design with distinction with a minor in Social Innovation at ArtCenter College of Design in 2017. She won an in-office carpet deign competition in 2019 and her design was used for the “Social Hub“ at HD Expo in Las Vegas.
