Work with MDH

Our Service Portfolio

Two ways to work with us: full-service offerings for complete transformations, and à la carte services for focused, expert support.

  • Meraki Design Haus works alongside architects, builders, and developers from the earliest stages of a new build, ensuring design intent is embedded from the ground up, not retrofitted at the end. Services include a full interior design package, spatial planning, material and finish specifications, millwork design, FF+E curation, and construction administration.


    Ideal for: Homeowners building a custom home who want an interior designer as part of the core project team from the start.

  • Full-service interior design for residential renovations — from whole-home transformations to focused single-room updates. Includes concept development through construction documentation and installation oversight.


    Ideal for: Homeowners renovating their existing space who need both creative vision and technical expertise to guide the process.

  • Interior design for small-scale commercial spaces where atmosphere, brand alignment, and user experience are paramount. I bring the same human-centered approach to commercial projects — asking not just "what should this look like?" but "how should this feel to the people who use it?"


    Ideal for: Small business owners, boutique hotel operators, and café or restaurant owners who want a distinctive, considered commercial interior.

  • Sourcing and curation of furniture, lighting, rugs, accessories, and artwork to complete a designed space, with access to trade-only resources and an experienced eye for what will actually work within your space.


    Ideal for: Clients who want a fully resolved space — every piece considered, nothing left to chance.

  • Not ready for a full-service engagement? These focused services offer expert support for a specific need.

Get Started

Our Process

Every project moves through three deliberate phases, each building on the one before it.

  • Phase I — Inspiration

    This phase is fundamentally about listening. I can't design for someone I don't yet know, so before anything else, I invest in understanding how you live, what you need, and how this space should make you feel. That means a discovery consultation, a close look at your daily routines, exploration of your aesthetic instincts, and a thorough analysis of your existing space, alongside a clear definition of the full scope of work. By the end, I won't just know what your space should look like — I'll know why, and that's what makes everything that follows feel unmistakably yours.

  • Phase II — Ideation

    This is where research becomes vision. Everything uncovered in Phase I begins to take physical form: concept development, floor plans and spatial planning, elevations and section drawings that bring dimension to the concept, and 3D renderings, so you can see your future space rather than imagine it. Materials, finishes, and furniture are curated to suit your style and scope, then refined through prototyping and iteration until it's right. What you see in Phase II is backed by everything learned in Phase I, which is why it tends to feel less like choosing, and more like recognizing.

  • Phase III — Implementation

    This is where your vision becomes reality, and where careful attention protects everything you've invested so far. I hand your design to your contractor team as a fully documented plan — construction drawings, specification packages, FF+E documentation, and ongoing contractor coordination — followed by a final review and styling pass. Renovations go wrong when details get lost between the page and the build. Phase III exists so yours doesn't: you'll watch the vision you approved become the space you actually live in.

  • “We want to thank you for your outstanding work bringing our home to life. We love it.”

    It is more beautiful than we had imagined or hoped it could be. Your guidance and design was essential to the homes success. At the beginning, we had lots of partially formed and disconnected ideas, and you expertly refined the good ones, gently steered us away from the ones that didn’t work, and brought them all together in a way that we could not have done without you. Thank you from all of us.

  • “I absolutely loved working with Amber and cannot recommend her highly enough.”

    Initially I was introduced to her via Swede Kitchens but after working together on the kitchen design I realized just how beneficial it was to work with a designer and so we extended her scope of work to cover the rest of the house renovations. I had previous experience building houses and thought I knew what I was doing but after working together I realized how much easier and more enjoyable it was to work with a professional who just knew all of the ins and outs of the industry and just had a great eye. Several times my builder asked me technical questions re edging of tiles etc which I had no idea about but Amber was able to easily provide advice. Amber very quickly understood my style, likes and dislikes and most importantly my budget. Having someone narrow things down to 3 options took alot of the stress out of decision making and her 20% designer discount meant that she more than paid for herself. She was able to find stylish options that fit my price range and offered up some ideas that I would never have thought of but ended up loving. Having the software to make visual displays of options to show me how it would look really helped me as well. Amber is professional, reliable, an excellent communicator, very reasonably priced and just an all around super star!

  • “If I ever build another home, MDH will be the first team I call!”

    MDH worked closely with me during the design process for my custom-built home in New Westminster. They were able to translate my ideas, inspirations and personality into a home design that is beautiful and functional. MDH Team has great communication and listening skills, is organized and delivered everything promised, on time. They also managed to keep me on budget, by finding reasonably priced alternatives to my expensive wish lists that didn’t sacrifice style or functionality. On top of being skilled and creative, MDH manages to balance being friendly and easy going while still being professional.

  • “MDH’s involvement and knowledge was a huge value to us and I would highly recommend their services.”

    I had an excellent experience working with MDH. Building our new home I had a vision of what I wanted. From our first meeting, they took the time to get to know my concept, style and practical needs. Through the process, they were promptly available to meet and discuss ideas, source materials, revise plans, and suggest solutions when needed. MDH is a true professional team and equally personably.

  • “We are so happy that we brought MDH on to help us with this project.”

    MDH helped us turn a standard apartment into our unique home. If it wasn’t for MDH we would probably be still living in an unrenovated apartment. We had talked about renovating for years but never knew where to start. MDH helped us to focus on our wants and needs and go us on the same page for finishes. MDH is extremely easy to work with, has a pleasant attitude, and is adaptable to any situation.

    MDH always came to the table with many options and was open to feedback both positive and negative, to really narrow down the final plan. We are beyond pleased with the final results of our place. Our friends and family are impressed with the changes as well and shocked at how different it looks. MDH made what is normally a stressful process all the more stress-free.
