ABOUT MELANIE
PHILOSOPHY
Melanie is a lover and seeker of all things stylish, be it interior design, art, fashion, or architecture. She adheres to the philosophy that interior design shouldn’t be trendy or “in vs out,” it should be authentic and personal. As a designer, she seamlessly blends the old with the new. She layers color, pattern and texture to create one-of-a-kind spaces that are dynamic, timeless, and unique. Melanie has a natural ability to quickly hone in on each client’s personal style. Both client and designer collaborate on the journey. The result is a product that goes above and beyond the client’s expectations, resulting in a space that looks refreshed, balanced and beautiful.
