designer

Born in Eugene, Oregon with a childhood in Nashville, teenage years in Denver, and university experience in Kansas, Madeline finds excitement and comfort in creating ‘home’ wherever she goes. After witnessing a local female architect draw up plans for her parents’ home renovation at age 11, she realized her passion for residential design. Upon graduating from Kansas State University with a master’s degree in Interior Architecture and Product Design, she moved to Austin where she spent a few years designing unique hospitality environments before making the move to residential design.

Madeline and her husband live in central Austin where they enjoy going for neighborhood walks and exploring Austin’s ever-growing food scene. When she’s not designing, she takes her creativity to the kitchen where you’ll find her developing a new recipe from scratch most nights.
