Named by the National Post as one of three Canadians stylists who “get it,” Ewen guides would-be designers through a good-natured competition of design challenges as co-host of Inside the Box with Ty Pennington (seen on the W network).
Known especially for her creative, budget-friendly and original approach to decorating, fashion and entertaining, she is a regular on television programs from coast to coast, including Canada AM, CityLine, Breakfast Television and Urban Rush.
Ewen also appeared as a design expert on “The Decorating Adventures of Ambrose Price,” and as a judge on Season Two of “From The Ground Up With Debbie Travis.”
For the past three years, Ewen has brought to life many of her visions and inspirations as the designer of the National Home Show’s Dream Home.
During her varied career, Ewen has worked as an editor at Chatelaine, House and Home, and Chocolat magazines. She has been a regular contributor to the Globe and Mail, and Sweetspot and her work has appeared in and on various media outlets in the United States, Australia and Japan.
