When it comes to creating homes that feel deeply personal and effortlessly elegant, this Atlanta-based design firm delivers with flair. Founded by Radhika Vydianathan and located just a short drive from Roswell, Emora Design Studio specializes in providing a five-star experience across renovations, new builds, and whole home furnishing projects.
Their philosophy is clear and compelling: “We craft globally inspired homes that celebrate individuality.” The name Emora comes from the emerald gemstone, symbolizing renewal, individuality, and timeless beauty. It’s a narrative that perfectly frames their design approach. This global yet deeply personal design vision comes to life through three signature styles: Contemporary Retreat, Transitional French Haven, and Global Chic with midcentury flair.
MEET RADHIKA VYDIANATHAN
Founder & Principal Designer
Radhika’s journey into design began with a childhood fascination with Egyptian architecture and a love for visual storytelling. Her firm reflects her belief that great design should elevate your lifestyle, spark meaningful connections, and “transform your space into something as exceptional as it is enduring.”
Working with her feels less like hiring a contractor and more like teaming up with a thoughtful collaborator. She listens closely to your stories, needs, and the pieces that matter to you, then translates that into a home that truly reflects who you are.
Forget cookie-cutter interiors. Emora creates homes that are personal, full of character, and thoughtfully designed down to the smallest detail. It’s about craftsmanship, care, and creating a space that feels just as good as it looks.
STYLE 1: Contemporary Retreat (Modern)
Project Example: Kingslane II, Roswell, GA
Kingslane II is described as “A Contemporary Retreat.” This style blends clean lines and calming neutrals with richly textured finishes—think sleek furnishings paired with luxurious rugs, layered lighting, and eye-catching stone accents.
It’s modern living reimagined, with open layouts, seamless indoor and outdoor flow, and serene palettes that feel anything but sterile. The key is balance. Bold architectural elements are softened by warm woods, cozy textiles, and curated art that reflects the people who live there.
With Emora, high design also means high comfort—the kind of space that feels sophisticated yet livable.
STYLE 2: A French-Inspired Haven (Transitional Style)
Project Example: The Manor House, Milton, GA
The Manor House in Milton showcases Emora’s transitional style, blending classic French detail with modern ease. Soft, refined palettes meet relaxed silhouettes and layered textures. The result is elegant but still welcoming.
Porcelain hardware, carved wood, and tailored upholstery are balanced by clean surfaces and casual furniture. A gilded mirror over a sleek console, billowing drapes against streamlined floors—every detail feels intentional and effortlessly chic.
This style captures timeless elegance while keeping things fresh and functional for everyday life.
STYLE 3: Global Chic (Eclectic / Midcentury Modern)
Project Example: A Fusion of Two Cultures, Brookhaven, GA
Global Chic shines in Emora’s Brookhaven project, aptly named “A Fusion of Two Cultures.” This look combines midcentury modern pieces with globally sourced materials, from earthy woods and textured fabrics to cultural accents collected with care.
The master suite is defined by a “refined palette of black and white complemented by warm wood hues and earthy accents.” It’s mature, serene, and infused with a nature-inspired calm.
Picture a walnut credenza styled with Moroccan textiles, rattan pendants hanging above sculptural art, and lush greenery bringing softness to sleek finishes. It’s midcentury at the core, enriched with worldly expression and soul.
