Gayle Erdman Casa Bella Design

Casa Bella Design was started in 1996 after 19 years in fine art development and sales. It was a natural segue to go in this direction following many years of placing art in both residential and business settings giving me great exposure to many beautiful environments both in the US and internationally. Originally from the northern VT city of St. Albans, I graduated from the University of Vermont and shortly after moved to Carrara, Italy to live in the artistic community. During that time I apprenticed at SGF Studios learning the art of carving stone which resulted in a successful career as an artist. It was the influence of the simple yet beautifully elegant Italian lifestyle that embedded lasting memories and inspirations to this day, thus the name Casa Bella or Beautiful Home. Working with clients is always such a pleasure for me and my role as a residential and commericial interior decorator provides the ability to help with each individual’s creative journey. By providing a relaxed environment and extensive selection of wonderful products and ideas unique to each situation CB Design will help successfully transform any idea into reality. It is the collaborative development between my customers and myself that is the most rewarding. Gayle presently lives in Hinesburg, VT with her husband Doug. Sharing their home are 3 labs Tara, Cooper and Rudy, the cat Beau, and 3 Oldenburg horses which comprise her other life as a breeder of sport horses. PHILOSOPHY & VISION Beautiful environments is a process that reflects one’s own unique character. Casa Bella’s greatest source of happiness, is when clients feel that their individual dreams have been made into reality. This can be a cooperative process, and ultimately one finds that special place within that inspires. Gayle views herself as the support person with a rich palette of ingredients and ideas to facilitate the success of each project, where everyone feels they had an important part in making it happen. MISSION Transforming dreams and ideas into individually unique environments.
