Welcome back to The Interior Collective. I’m your host, Anastasia Casey, and today’s conversation is one that every interior designer needs to hear—especially if you’ve ever felt like you're running a successful business on the outside but struggling to make sense of the numbers behind the scenes.

I’m joined by Gabriela Eisenhart, founder of the award-winning Silo Studio Design based in Atlanta, Georgia. Known for her sophisticated, storytelling interiors that push boundaries while honoring comfort and function, Gabriela leads a growing team creating homes and boutique commercial spaces across the country. But beyond her incredible aesthetic, what really struck me about Gabriela is how seriously she takes the business of design—especially when it comes to profitability, cash flow, and keeping your head in the books as you scale.

In this episode, Gabriela opens up about the early mistakes that shaped her financial approach, the KPIs she watches like a hawk, and why staying personally connected to your bookkeeping is one of the most creative decisions you can make as a business owner. We’re talking pricing strategy, cash flow, profit margins, and how to build a team while staying lean, nimble, and profitable.

If you’re ready to trade burnout for sustainability, and guesswork for clarity—this conversation is your permission slip to get intimate with your numbers and build a business that truly supports your life.
