About Us

Our Carpet One team has been serving the Bemidji area since 2013. We became The Design Store in 2022 when Alicia Erickson, who had been managing Bemidji Carpet One since its origin, and her husband, Justin, were able to live out their family’s dream of owning a design center. They wanted a place that could offer not only their favorite products but also the design and installation services to pull an entire project together from start to finish. Together, and with an incredible team, we’re able to offer something extremely special to the community and surrounding areas. Justin is also a Hunter Douglas Certified Installer who has the training to ensure your window treatments are installed and running correctly.
