Mary-Lynn Reuter

Lead Interior Designer

Mary-Lynn has been immersed in art, building, and design from a young age. Her passion for infusing artistic flair into the world of interior design has resonated deeply with her clients, who appreciate her ability to think outside the box. Known for her thoughtful use of color, texture, organic materials, and unexpected design elements, Mary-Lynn skillfully blends multiple styles to create truly personalized spaces.

Her collaborative approach often transforms client relationships into lasting friendships, as she partners with homeowners to turn their house into the home they've always dreamed of. Originally from the Twin Cities, Mary-Lynn studied Fine Arts at the University of Minnesota and Human Resources at the College of Saint Catherine.

Before fully diving into the design world, Mary-Lynn worked in the corporate sector, eventually founding and leading a retail design and build company in the Twin Cities. A move to Hilton Head Island for a quieter life turned into a new adventure when building her own custom home inspired others to seek her expertise. This led her to become Founder and President of an award-winning design-build firm in the Lowcountry, where she continued to grow her design capabilities.

Over a decade ago, she and her husband relocated to Raleigh, where she joined another award-winning custom home design-build firm. There, she managed everything from hinge selections to furnishings, bringing harmony and intention to each project. Mary-Lynn believes a home is deeply personal—a reflection of its inhabitants—and should be a place where every detail is meaningful and every space brings joy.

Outside of work, she enjoys playing tennis, spending time in her studio creating art in various styles, quilting, and gardening. Mary-Lynn and her husband are proud parents of four adult children and grandparents to nine cherished grandchildren.
