Meet Melissa Wright of Wright Design

Today we’d like to introduce you to Melissa Wright. 

Hi Melissa, can you start by introducing yourself? We’d love to learn more about how you got to where you are today?
I have a formal design degree from Western Carolina University, but it’s over a decade of working in the interior design industry that’s taught me how to give my clients the very best care and attention. Design-build projects aren’t solo operations. It takes a village! And it takes a designer like me who knows how to work with architects, builders, and vendors to advocate for the client and drive the project to the finish line. Over the years, I’ve seen that if the designer doesn’t do those things, no one else will. That’s why, in addition to engineering solutions to the design problems and creating spaces that are beautiful and personal, I see it as my job to get the project in order and keep it that way. By listening — really listening — to the client, I understand what they want and need (even if they aren’t really sure what that is). By following my tried-and-true processes, we can move mountains to make it all happen for the client in ways they have never imagined possible. 

Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not, what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
I don’t particularly think anything in life will be a smooth road, but a lot of the obstacles are what make the job exciting. Some of our major struggles stem from things that are outside of our control, but the challenge is what makes it worth it!

What do you like and dislike about the city?
My favorite thing about Charlotte is how close it is to the beach and the mountains. We are lucky to live somewhere that has a lot of hidden gems you can travel to! The city is constantly growing, which has allowed us to create more business opportunities. The only downfall from the growth is the traffic that has emerged over the past years and because we are always on the road, it takes up a lot more of our time being in the car.
