IS THIS YOU?
-
Your home is drafty, dusty, and dated
-
You want to renovate your home
-
You're tired of financing the energy company's coffers with your heating bills
-
You're tired of breathing wildfire smoke each summer
-
You'd love to finally have a home you can show off, or just enjoy coming home to
If you want your home to look good, be healthy, save you money, and function how you need it to, you have found your designer.
I've been solving design conundrums since 1998 (yikes!) and got tired of only solving one part of my clients problems, so I got trained in Passive House and WELL. What is the point of a stylish, stunning home design if it isn't also comfortable, quiet, and healthy? Seriously, that's skin deep design and there is a better way.

Your designer, Melinda, wants to make her clients lives better through good design and she wants to contribute to a healthier world through sustainable and healthy design. She believes we all deserve good design and our spaces should foster life, enjoyment, health, and beauty.
She was educated in interior design at Mount Royal, has been practicing interior designer in Calgary for over 20 years, is NCIDQ certified, and a member of both Interior Designers of Alberta and Passive House Canada.
She has worked on a range of small to multi-million-dollar projects in residential, commercial, hospitality, retail, and health-care. Renovations are her love and she brings her passion to design better for the environment and our health.
She had big plans on becoming an architect after her education, but a life-altering car accident changed that trajectory. It brought into sharp focus how important good design is for our health and well-being, and how bad design affects us adversely. She lives with chronic pain and chooses to use her experiences to make her clients’ lives better through good design.
