Meet Meg Carson

Principal

Meg is the best at reading customer styles and preferences. Her keen eye for color has elevated many projects to a new level. Emcy Interior Design was also able to take a spec home from drab to fab, with a broad appeal that sold in record time.”

Jaclyn OhMAN

Project Manager, Cole Contracting

Meg planted her roots in the Sarasota/Bradenton area in 2011 after years at an Orlando boutique interior design firm where she focused on commercial, hospitality and high-end residential design. She found after working for a Sarasota custom home builder, the residential design was her sweet spot. Armed with an Interior Design Degree from Florida State University, State of Florida licensure and a National Council for Interior Design Qualification license, Meg started her own interior design firm after she found herself in high demand from prior clients and repeated referrals.

Meg works closely with her clients to detail a layered, cohesive interior with smart finishes that function to the client’s specific way of living. Her focus is being the client’s greatest advocate through the home building process. The ability to source furniture, window treatments, accessories and the perfect finishing touches in addition to consulting is just a beautiful bonus.

“I know more about home building than I ever dreamed of learning and I believe my building knowledge sets me apart from other interior designers. I understand the constraints of what can and what cannot be constructed in custom home building and how to do it, cost effectively and beautifully.”

“The best part of the design process is watching the client fall in love with their new home, a space that is perfect for them and all their own. At the final reveal, they get to see in 3D what I saw in my head from day one. I’m thrilled for them and proud to be part of their special, unique creation that cannot be duplicated.”

“

Meg has done several projects for me. She was very professional, easy to work with and all of her designs turned out beautiful."

“

My wife and I used Meg and Emcy Interior Design for the complete remodel of our 7,700 sf home. Without her guidance and expertise I know the project would not have turned out as well as it did. Meg’s impeccable attention to detail and her unparalleled organization skills made everything run smoothly. She has the brilliant ability to merge my and my wife’s opposite styles into something we both love. I highly recommend using Meg if you want your project to look fantastic and run smoothly.

We have worked with Meg for the past 4 years, building and designing our home. She is an incredible designer, with impeccable taste! Our home was custom built, and Meg proposed everything from the bricks, cabinets, floors, paint and many detailed decors, to the furniture, rugs, etc. We accepted ALL of her suggestions, and we now have a beautiful home that is tastefully designed! Meg is an absolute pleasure to work with; she's extremely responsive and always stays within a proposed budget. She completed our projects on time--even making a critical Thanksgiving Day deadline! We will continue to use Meg for all of our house building and furnishing needs."

It is a pleasure to be able to work with such an awesome designer. Meg is not only great with her clients she is very detailed with her designs and paperwork. It is always beautiful and everyone is very happy.

Laura Ascherman

Residential Client

We have worked with Meg Carson through our builder for about the past year. Meg has a great sense of style and has provided advice to us as we have made decisions on all aspects of our home from the design of the ceilings to outdoor color schemes, tile, granite, flooring and lighting. She is a great sounding board and we feel that she helps to push us to think outside our own little box when it comes to design. Meg has a great sense of what works well and what does not. She has been extremely responsive - typically answering a text message with a follow-up call when we have seen something that we want advice on or when we are stuck on some choices. Finally, she is an absolute pleasure to work with - she is funny and kind and we have thoroughly enjoyed working with her. We would highly recommend her for any of your design needs.

Meg is the best! Creative yet professional, highly organized and flexible. Knows her stuff and is reasonably priced. About to start my second project with her. Highly recommend."

Alex Miller

Residential Client

Meg is extraordinary! She has helped me through both big jobs (construction) and little (freshing up a room), each time with the same exceptional eye for beautiful design, cohesive style and practicality. I've relied on her completely to turn my vague requests into beautiful outcomes. She is extremely responsive, always a pleasure to work with and, considering the very high quality of her work, quite reasonable in her pricing. She works with a stable of contractors who I've also found to be equally pleasant and responsive. She is a true treasure in the Sarasota area.
