Michael Merrill Design Studio

Jan 2026

I’ve known Michael for many years, and in my opinion, he creates some of the finest design work a human being can produce. Over the past 15 years, I’ve seen much of his completed work, and truly—there has been nothing comparable. Each time I visited the same spaces, I continued to notice new, unique elements in his designs. What makes this even more remarkable is Michael’s ability to create what I’d call a pared‑down, simple‑yet‑stunning aesthetic. It’s always been a pleasure stepping into the homes he has designed. Recently, I invited Michael over to my own home. After just one visit, everything changed—his enthusiasm and passion for design ignited my appreciation for what my space could become. We are now working together on both the interior and exterior of my home, and neighbors are noticing the transformation. Note: Shout out to Sam Michael’s assistant who shares the same desire as Michael. I have seen his excitement, support, and skill in design work
