Owner/Principal

Get to Know Me

Hi, I am Melissa Mcdonald and designing spaces has always been a passion of mine. In 2003 I moved to Ottawa from my home town in Nova Scotia to pursue this passion. I have been running MelMac Designs since 2008 and have helped many clients with a variety of design needs.

I love my job and welcome the opportunity to earn your trust and deliver you the best service in the industry.

Working with us you can expect a clear defined process, communication, transparency and an amazing group of trades I have spent years building relationships with.

When I am not designing, I am a mom of two busy and beautiful boys and wife to an incredibly supportive husband. On the weekends you'll often find me at a hockey rink or spending time with my friends and family.

Clients have often described me as very personable, honest and reliable. I would love the opportunity to earn your trust to work with you on your design project.
