2 CLEAR STAGES
Building a home is an extremely technical and detailed process.
If you hire the right group of trusted professionals, you should be able to let go, trust and collaborate as needed.
I refuse to waste your time or money.
Because of this, I have developed a streamlined process that reduces unnecessary time and expense. Clients are treated to a memorable experience from beginning to end.

STAGE ONE
LIFESTYLE & DESIGN DISCOVERY PHASE
Through conversation and exercise, we begin to build the metaphorical foundation of your home. By listening to your story and vision for the project, I build an understanding of how you live, what restores you, what creates stress, and what defines beauty through your five senses.
This phase is offered to all members of the home for ultimate unity and wellness for all.
DESIGN DEVELOPMENT
I work arm in arm with the architectural team to build what we have learned from you at this point. Beginning at the schematic phase, we honor the land the property sits on and keep your overall wellness and concept of beauty at the forefront.
The project comes to life as our team formulates the design concept—room by room, detail by detail.
PROPOSAL STAGE
Before a shovel hits the ground, you are offered a full proposal with a completed FF&E (Furniture, Fixture and Equipment), a 3-D tour & renderings, and a complete financial package of the interiors. The vision and investment is crystal clear.
STAGE TWO
COLLABORATION & BUILD
I work side by side with your architect and builder so the integration is seamless from start to finish.
PROCUREMENT
I oversee every detail of procurement and expediting to ensure the design moves toward reality.
INSTALLATION AND STYLING
I have an installation team that joins me for the greatest part of the process — what I like to call the icing on the cake.
The home is fully appointed, with no detail left undone.
The moment arrives when you are handed the key. The project is behind you, and the time comes to enjoy each day in a home that supports your health and your vision of beauty.
The worst part of my job is saying goodbye to a home I have fallen in love with.
Melinda Headrick is a total pro. No one knows design better than she does and she does it to perfection. She’s the consummate professional - during the time we worked together she navigated having a long distance client with patience and grace. Her taste is impeccable and very creative. Her programs is extremely efficient and user friendly. Above all we really enjoyed working with Melinda both personally and professionally. We can’t recommend her highly enough. Look no further!

My Office — My Team
When you hire me, you get me.
During my career, I’ve had multiple offices, large libraries, and an extensive staff. After two decades, however, I realized that abiding by the traditional model of running a design firm wasn’t serving me or my clients.
I work remotely and outsource all technical and administrative duties to talented companies I have vetted and trust. When it comes time for installation, I gather my longtime team for hands-on, turnkey service.
I work without geographical limits, and I have proudly developed a network of some of the most talented architects, builders, and vendors serving the design community.
I welcome the chance to recommend a dream team for your project.
