Meet your Exterior Designer

I'm Mel. Your Designer, Collaborator & Guide

Since founding West | South in 2018, I've helped hundreds of busy homeowners across the U.S. design real, contractor-ready exterior finish plans for their renovation or new build.

No matter your style, location, or the scope of your project,
I'm here to help you:

Make the right selections the first time

See your home's potential before you build

Communicate clearly with contractors

Avoid trends that feel dated or choices you'll regret

I don’t believe in commission.
So I’m not here to upsell you.

Just helping you decide what’s best for your home, climate, and budget.
