Multi-Family / High-End Residential Design Solutions   |   National Design Firm Based in San Antonio, TX      30+ Years of Experience

For more than 30 years Michelle has been a leading Interior Designer with her office based in San Antonio, Texas. Studying at the Art Institute in Chicago, where she grew up, Michelle, from an early age felt passionate about color, texture, and design. She knew that combining these elements could help embody the feeling or mood you want to evoke when you enter a room,  sit on a sofa, or draw you closer to immerse yourself in a piece of art. She has incorporated this same passion along with her years of experience and expertise into the many projects she and her team have worked on. 

​

Creating inviting, balanced, and mindful spaces that are functional as well as comfortable is always at the forefront of her design decisions. She and her team continue to work on numerous projects all over the country. Whether it be a high-rise apartment complex in Chicago or LA, a multifamily garden-style property in Arizona, student housing in Florida, condo projects in Miami, Air B&B’s in Virginia, or custom homes in San Antonio, she and her team continue to impress. Michelle and her team continue to impress by utilizing their unique abilities to take their client's vision, and then applying their intuitive skill sets, creativity, functionality, and versatility. When blended all together they can elevate that initial vision by creating a collaborative plan and a solid foundation for the work ahead.

When she is not working, she enjoys spending quality time with friends and family, seeing musicals, going to art shows, visiting museums, traveling of course, and trying new restaurants. Michelle's signature red hair and enthusiastic, upbeat attitude makes her truly unique. Because she really loves what she does, she draws you in to her enthusiasm and vision and makes the process fun and exciting for everyone involved.

After attending a design class in high school, Stephanie knew she wanted to be a designer. She would follow that dream after graduating from Texas State University (2008) with a degree in Interior Design. She started down her career path in residential design, but found her true passion in 2010 here with the IDBM team diving into the multi-family design world. She strives for perfection, and her attention to detail is a vital part of being the assistant designer for Michelle. After more than a decade long relationship, Michelle and Stephanie are a synchronized team that can read each others' minds and once they get get started they get down to business and get the work done!

​

“I love that we work so well as a team. We come in to the office everyday and strive to be our best selves! After the hard work is done, we walk away with our heads held high and can proudly say ‘WE DID THAT!' and that’s what makes being a part of this team so special.”

​

Apart from her love for design, her true passion is family. Whether it's traveling to new exciting places with them or spending her Saturdays at the little league fields, her family is her main focus in life and her reason to strive to be the best she can be everyday.
