Welcome to MTR Designs an interior design company that specializes in creating rooms that are DESIGNED FOR LIVING. Maria Abernathy created MTR Designs from a true passion and love of houses and everything that turns a house into a home. The journey started many years ago and has had both pivots and pauses along the way. However, one thing has always remained constant, Maria’s obsession with creating beautiful and comfortable spaces that are not only functional they are classic and timeless. Her career started as a professional sales representative with over 14 years of success in business-to-business and business-to customer sales within the Advertising, Pharmaceutical and Medical Device industries. Her proven track record in exceeding sales goals, growing business, and expanding territories has proven invaluable in creating best practices which make the MTR Design process organized, simplified and intentional.

She is accomplished in overseeing business operations and fostering relationships with clients and vendors and her skillset includes critical thinking, problem solving, time management, prioritizing and meeting deadlines.

WHY IS THIS IMPORTANT TO YOU IN THE DESIGN PROCESS?

- Strong budget management practices

- Ability to manage large scale projects

- Internal processes & procedures

- Systems for every project – checks & balances

- Strong communication practices including Friday follow ups

- Client binders

- Project management + accounting services

Just like everyone is unique, Maria believes every home should be an original too. “Designing a beautiful and livable home starts with the client’s likes and dislikes and what makes them feel happy.” MTR Designs believes that although every project is DIFFERENT the process should remain the SAME.

Whether it’s a one room refresh or an entire house remodel, we can help create interior places that you enjoy spending time in. Your first home, a vacation home or your forever home, MTR Designs will partner with you to create a place DESIGNED FOR LIVING.
