I found her more than helpful. The work was done beautifully and her ideas were very helpful and right on point--helping me to downsize and also treat my furniture so it could be used in a smaller space. I love the look of my new covers and the one new piece she helped me pick out. She understood what I wanted and after looking around my home zeroed right in on what would work for me. I highly recommend her! **Comment from Melanie Lark Design:** > Thanks, Martha! I look forward to working on the new house! > --Melanie **★★★★★ — Mary Bolenbaugh, Feb. 2015** > We recently worked with Melanie of Melanie Lark Designs to freshen and brighten up our interior. We hired her for her signature "Day of Design" and were extremely pleased with the results. She spent hours with us and helped us use the furniture we already had to create new and functional areas in our home. She rolled up her sleeves and moved furniture and re-arranged art work to result in a totally new look that worked so much better for our current lifestyle than what we had previously. She prepared a summary of our discussion and presented everything to us in a binder with sources to purchase additional items, had we chosen to do so. Melanie also helped us accessorize our rooms and thoughtfully considered our budget. Today our guests walk into our home and never fail to comment on how lovely everything looks now. The spaces are welcoming and inviting, and we have Melanie to thank for that. We discovered that we could make dramatic improvements without breaking the bank. Thanks, Melanie! You're the BEST! **★★★★ — miriambiriam, Oct. 2013** > My husband and I hired Melanie for her "Day of Design" service. She did a great job! Melanie helped us focus in on what we needed to do to achieve that "finished" look in our new house -- going room-by-room, giving design tips and helping us clarify our style. All of her recommendations were spot-on; the furniture pieces that we bought based on her advice look terrific and have really helped finish off our living room. She also provided us with valuable guidance regarding our wall-hangings and re-arranging furniture. Following the "Day of Design", we also worked with Melanie to design custom draperies for our dining room. She invested a lot of time in order to achieve a beautiful design that met our budget. > Personality-wise, Melanie was great to work with. She has a pleasant demeanor, is very attentive, organized, and was genuinely interested in helping us achieve our vision for our house! **★★★★★ — kpicha, Aug. 2013** > I had a wonderful experience working with Melanie Lark Design. She was incredibly professional and was able to accomodate my crazy schedule. Most importantly, she heard me when I told her about the atmosphere that I was hoping to create. She came back to me with a different color scheme than I was originally considering and it was perfect. I will definitely use Melanie Lark Design again and would highly recommend this company to my friends and family. **★★★★★ — jldietzcabinetry, July 2013** > Very professional. MLD is always helpful and is a pleasure to work with. Highly recommend Melanie for your design needs. **★★★★★ — Allison Lattanze, July 2013** > Melanie Lark helped me redecorate my home. I needed someone with professional design experience who could guide me on furniture placement and choosing the best of my things to display. Melanie was wonderful to work with and I am so happy with the results. I highly recommend her. Not only does she have a very discerning eye, but she is pleasure to work with. ## Selected projects - [Chester Springs Home Staged for Sale](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/chester-springs-home-staged-for-sale-pj-vj~277650) - Location: Chester Springs, PA - Photos: 8 - Description: Stately home staged for sale in Chester Springs, PA. - [Main Line Girl's Bedroom](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/main-line-girl-s-bedroom-pj-vj~45415) - Location: Devon, PA - Photos: 4 - [Devon Family Residence](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/devon-family-residence-pj-vj~632232) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 3 - [Berwyn, PA Dining Room](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/berwyn-pa-dining-room-pj-vj~307847) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 2 - [Main Line Living Room](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/main-line-living-room-pj-vj~277644) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 2 - [British Colonial Style family room](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/british-colonial-style-family-room-pj-vj~284424) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 2 - [Malvern,PA Master Bedroom and Bath](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/malvern-pa-master-bedroom-and-bath-pj-vj~277326) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 3 [See all 7 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/interior-designers-and-decorators/melanie-lark-design-pfvwus-pf~939612051) ## Ideabooks - [Wish List](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/150153148/list/wish-list) — 1 idea - [Wish List](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/150153147/list/wish-list) — 1 idea - [Rice](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/146154567/list/rice) — 1 idea - [Bath ideas](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/44989479/list/bath-ideas) — 3 ideas - [blue living rooms](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/31194303/list/blue-living-rooms) — 13 ideas - [Gray bedroom](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/22793184/list/gray-bedroom) — 9 ideas - [greek key trim](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/9757791/list/greek-key-trim) — 1 idea - [shutters](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/9641269/list/shutters) — 1 idea - [islands](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/4416525/list/islands) — 2 ideas - [study corner](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/3795869/list/study-corner) — 4 ideas - [P. bedroom](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/3422596/list/p-bedroom) — 9 ideas - [melanielark's ideas](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/242608/list/melanielark-s-ideas) — 2 ideas - [P. foyer](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/2873065/list/p-foyer) — 10 ideas - [A.K. studio apt.](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/2970806/list/a-k-studio-apt) — 8 ideas - [L. family room](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/2898073/list/l-family-room) — 1 idea [See all 15 ideabooks](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/users/melanielark) ## Community Q&A **Q: Will u plz share coffee table info??? THANKS! :)** *(in Photo Questions)* A: Hi. The coffee table shown is no longer available, but similar item is available at Ethan Allen.http://www.ethanallen.com/en\_US/shop-furniture-living-room-coffee-tables/windward-coffee-table/298520.html?dwvar\_298520\_finish=Peppercorn\#start=1 **Q: Roman Blinds** *(in Photo Questions)* Where can I find the striped roman blinds? Thanks A: The ones in the photo are custom made to coordinate with the drapes in the adjoining bedroom. You can contact me or a local design professional to obtain this item. **Q: Where did you get the rug?** *(in Photo Questions)* A: Thank you for your inquiry. Unfortunately, that rug is a prop that was rented for staging a home for sale, and I don't know the manufacturer. Good luck!--Melanie **Q: where can you buy live house plants?** *(in Photo Questions)* having trouble finding live house plants of size. Any suggestions? A: Try IKEA….they have baskets and nice containers as well.--Melanie **Q: Bedspread** *(in Photo Questions)* Can you tell me where this bedspread is from? Thank you! A: The duvet was from Urban Outfitters. I don't believe it is available anymore, but they have other colorful ones that would make a good starting point for a room. (This was my starting point for this room.) Good luck!--Melanie **Q: Love the couch. Can you share where it is from (Brand).** *(in Photo Questions)* A: The sofa is from Century furniture. It is extra deep and very comfortable! --- *Source: Houzz professional profile. Reflects the profile as of 2026-09-11.*
