Tori J. Cuddigan, Owner
Tori Cuddigan, owner, renowned international interior designer and event planner, creates the ambiance of Elégance in his work. Coming from New York City, Cuddigan unlike any other, has included event planning into the business. Cuddigan has traveled, designed, and helped coordinate throughout the world which helps bring to the plate knowledge of culture, fashion, and all the latest trends. Elégance projects range from Modern, Bohemian, Asian, Contemporary, to Colonial Décor. If the client is seeking a Greek harp, a Roman statue, or a French tapestry, Elégance will find it.
Cuddigan was born in Germany and moved to the United States at the age of eight. Following his High School graduation in 1999, Cuddigan joined the military later pursuing a degree in Interior Design. Cuddigan left to open his first business in New York City, NY in 2001, after graduating from Colorado State University. In 2004, a second office opened in Laredo, Texas named Torelli Interior Designs. Tailoring to the change of scene, Cuddigan hosted many Quinceañeras and wedding expositions and introduced the high fashion of Elégance to Laredo. In 2006, Cuddigan successfully opened a third office in San Francisco. However, in 2007, due to a family crisis, all offices were closed. He moved to Colorado Springs, CO and now, that life is more tranquil, Cuddigan has re-opened his business.
Committing his talents and knowledge of interior designing and event planning to our community will return the compassion, understanding, and respect that the many have lost throughout the world. "There is no greater joy, than seeing the smiles on the faces of a satisfied client, a newly wed couple, or of a patient that has received medications for an illness that he/she could not afford after having coordinated a fundraiser to help those in need. It is not the interior design project or the event planning that satisfies me or makes me feel accomplished, it is the satisfaction that Elégance has changed an element in the lives of a client to make them happy with their surrounding, assisting in the future of a newly wed couple, or seeing that if a person is in need, Elégance is there to help and change those small elements into something grandeur and everlasting. Every interior design project or event that I plan, is to be a vision in a dream, which is what makes my company distinguished from the rest of the world: Elegant" states Cuddigan. Elégance’s Mission is: To ensure a quality service where the planning, budgeting, execution, and satisfaction exceed customer’s expectations!
