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

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

Avoid trends that feel dated or choices you'll regret

Communicate clearly with contractors

See your home's potential before you build

Make the right decisions the first time

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

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

I'm Mel. Your Designer, Collaborator & Guide
