About Melo Design

We design more than homes. We design the entire experience.

From the first idea to the final walkthrough, Melo Design leads the whole project — so you have one team carrying the vision, the structure, and the build. We combine design sensibility with engineering thinking and real construction experience, giving our clients clarity, confidence, and a truly elevated process.

We specialize in historic and older buildings across Greater Boston — structural upgrades, underpinning, and sensitive renovations — alongside new construction throughout the Boston area and complete interior finishes.

Every project moves through a single, coordinated hand:

  • Initial Vision
  • Space Planning
  • Design Development
  • Structural Coordination
  • Permit Documentation
  • Construction Planning
  • Interior Design
  • Owner Representation
