Owner & Principal Designer of M.E. Design

 
Melissa Ennis Design
 

My Mission

Creating curated, timeless, and beautiful homes that are a true reflection of the families within them.

Founded in 2012 after eight years of building & renovating personal projects, Melissa took the leap into Interior Design Full Time. Melissa believes the best design comes from collaboration and loves working alongside her Junior Designer, Design Assistant, and Drafting + Rendering team.

M.E. Design is known for designing timeless spaces that are anything but boring. By layering a variety of texture, pattern, and natural and reflective elements, each project we create is stunningly unique, but remains true to our aesthetic brand. We focus on thoughtful and meticulous design through our process, and know that a rushed design is never a good design. Trust us, it's all worth the wait!

We work on a multitude of projects and do not discriminate by Scope or Budget. From New Build Homes & Infills, Renovations, and Full Home Furnishing & Decor to Design Consultations. We strive to first fully understand our client's lifestyle and then carefully piece together a design to assist our clients in achieving their dream space. We truly care about every one of our clients and treat our projects as if they were our own.

M.E. Design is based in Edmonton & Canmore, Canada, but provides design for clients across North America.

We are currently working on projects in PEI, Naramata, Canmore, and Scottsdale, as well as Edmonton.

So you want to know the full story...

A little bit more about Melissa.

If you're still reading then you must want to know how I got to Business Owner and Interior Designer?

My first career was not in Design, but rather Education! I had a wonderful career for 9 years teaching everything from Grade 2 to High School P.E. and Coaching ALL the sports teams (my personal favourite). Do I miss it? A little. But the driving factor for me was control of my schedule and waking up every day doing something I'm passionate about. I went to Design School while I was still teaching, and one Fall while teaching half time and running my business the other half, I found myself fielding client phone calls on the tennis courts with my students. I decided to take the giant leap and focus all my efforts on building my Interior Design business, and have never looked back!

My husband and I have built and renovated many of our own homes (10 to be exact) over the last 20 years, so with me you are getting the experience of someone who has personally been through everything you are going through!

And as for Coaching, I've been able to mentor other designers over the last 10 years of my career which is extremely rewarding. I also have two children that are on ALL the sports teams and have been fortunate to start coaching them!

And when it comes to my business, I am extremely client centred and have a team mentality. I love to work collaboratively with all members of YOUR team (spouse/partner, builder/contractor, installers, vendors, etc) to make the design process as smooth as possible!
