Meet Michelle
Michelle, now based in Germany, is the founder and creative director of MW Designs. Her love for design dates back to her childhood when she received her first hope chest from her parents, and since then, she has been curating a collection of unique pieces that resonate with her. Having lived in different places throughout her life, Michelle documented each home’s design process on social media to inspire others to create their own happy place, regardless of their location. In 2019, she turned her passion into a business, and MW Designs was born.
Michelle’s design philosophy is simple: surround yourself with the things you love, and your space will reflect your personality and bring you happiness. As a designer, Michelle is known for creating sophisticated and collected spaces with lots of texture. Her designs blend old and new items with traditional and modern aesthetics, resulting in a unique and personalized feel for each room. Her work has been recognized in The Cottage Journal, Washingtonian, and BlackRock Galleries, among others.
When Michelle isn’t designing, she’s exploring Germany, trying out all the amazing cafes, and spending time with her husband, 14-year-old son, and 3-year-old daughter. She approaches life with a sense of adventure and a desire to make the most of every moment. Let Michelle help you create a space that truly reflects your style and makes you feel happy and inspired.”
