Family vacations in the U.S. and abroad sparked an interest in architecture and design, then study abroad, surrounded by historic and contemporary structures, solidified his interest. \u201cThese early influences continue to inform the way I approach projects,\u201d Ezrin says, \u201cwith curiosity, intention and a desire to make life better through design.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">He founded TOBE DesignGroup in 2011. The boutique interior architecture and design firm tackles residential, multi-family residential and commercial projects nationally and internationally. \u201cOur team brings decades of experience, allowing us to navigate complex projects with confidence,\u201d notes Ezrin. \u201cWe believe in meaningful collaboration with clients; trust, transparency and communication guide every project.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Community outreach and philanthropy are central tenets of the firm. \u201dGiving back is not an afterthought,\u201d he says. \u201cWe support charitable initiatives and organizations that align with our belief in design as a force for good.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Ezrin was named Best of Bethesda 2026 Readers\u2019 Pick for Interior Designer, and was included in Designers Today\u2019s 2025 Power List of 50 influential designers. TOBE DesignGroup received an NKBA award and two ASID awards in 2025, and two ASID awards in 2024.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">See more at HandD.com\/TOBEDesignGroup<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":4311,"template":"","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":""},"designer-categories":[3],"designer-specialties":[27,8,10,9,15],"class_list":["post-453","designer","type-designer","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","designer_category-interior-design","designer_specialty-commercial-multi-family","designer_specialty-contemporary","designer_specialty-modern","designer_specialty-traditional","designer_specialty-transitional"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/homeanddesign.com\/portfolio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/designers\/453","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/homeanddesign.com\/portfolio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/designers"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/homeanddesign.com\/portfolio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/designer"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/homeanddesign.com\/portfolio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4311"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/homeanddesign.com\/portfolio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=453"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"designer_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/homeanddesign.com\/portfolio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/designer-categories?post=453"},{"taxonomy":"designer_specialty","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/homeanddesign.com\/portfolio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/designer-specialties?post=453"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
