Performing beyond client expectations and designing iconic spaces that defy definition.
Marygrace Design is well established as a leading full service design firm creating multi-faceted, experiential residential, hospitality, commercial and retail environments, as well as expansive collections of custom drapery product and designs.
Founded by principal, Marygrace Dickson, the firm has been creating luxurious living environments for clients of the most discerning tastes for over a decade. Marygrace’s signature design aesthetic has kept the firm growing by leaps and bounds, attracting clients locally, nationally, and globally.
Interior Designer Marygrace Dickson founded Marygrace Design with one simple goal in mind: to transform people’s lives by enhancing their interiors. Though her taste is cutting edge, it is marked by a timeless allure. Marygrace creates balanced contemporary interiors that are equal parts form and function with modern silhouettes brought to life by her unique use of vintage accents and avant-garde elements. Marygrace’s interior design philosophy of “understated luxury” is also achieved through layers of rich color, organic shapes and cleverly developed lighting. The resulting Marygrace Design projects are exuberant, yet always have a way of transcending the trends.
A peek into our process
We start…
In the same way. Always. Asking a million questions, finding out about you. Your wants and your needs, your loves and your hates. Your lifestyle. We’re learning what’s meaningful to you, and what you want your home, office, or business to say about you.
Then we begin our design process. First…
We develop your initial schematic designs. Why? To help you visualize your new interiors.
Then…
We create construction documents. Why? Because these drawings inform craftspeople, trades people and contractors of how exactly to build out your interiors.
Next…
We design your palette. Why? By creating the vision, by setting the stage, by giving you a glimpse of: your materials, finishes and colors, your millwork, custom cabinetry and much more, you’re seeing what your interiors will look like, and equally important, what they’ll feel like.
And then…
We finalize all the drawings, all the layouts, all the custom finishes and all the details (and details, details.)
Followed by you, giving your approval. And we move to…
Purchasing. Ordering, shipping, receiving…and inspecting. Because when something arrives broken (and something always does) we’re there to take care of it.
Simultaneously, we are…
Uploading, photos and videos of the process. You’ll see your space taking shape before your eyes. (Okay, your screen.)
Finally…
The Big Reveal. Flowers are on your table. Coffee’s made, your candles are lit, and your wine’s decanting. We’ve met your every need so that you can simply walk in and live your life. And your lifestyle.
Why we do it? Because we love…
Seeing your eyes light up when you walk into your new interiors and hearing you say, “It’s exactly me. It’s just what I wanted. How did you know?” - That’s why we love what we do.

On a scale of 1-10 we would rate our experience with Marygrace Design a perfect 10. From the very first email and phone call till now, Marygrace and her team responded to each and every question, concern and need speedily and readily. As with any project, there are bound to be issues, delays and problems along the way. Regardless of whatever occurred, Marygrace handled all with care, grace and success.
Our favorite attribute of Marygrace and her team is the attention to detail. Nothing escapes Marygrace’s eyes. She notices and takes care of everything on her own initiative. Despite our tight schedule, and sometimes stressful situations, Marygrace’s organizational skills allowed for us to move open our restaurant on time and within budget.
The most amazing talent of hers is her ability to understand and translate what we wanted into a visual, beautiful reality. She respects our opinions and suggestions while at the very same time honestly provides her own. We very much appreciated her honesty and trusted her expertise. When something we wanted or suggested was not ideal, Marygrace would tell us why and offer better alternatives. We absolutely love every inch of our first family restaurant. We would recommend Marygrace Design to friends, relatives and business associates without reservation.

Residence, washington
We hired Marygrace Design for the Interior Design of our home in Washington, MI. Marygrace and her team have made the entire process of designing and decorating my new home effortless and enjoyable for several reasons: Marygrace really listens to what the client’s goals and tastes are and considers that throughout the entire process (she very accurately perceived what my tastes were and presented numerous ideas and options); she offers her ideas as well as remains open to changes the client may want; she is completely upfront as to cost and timing; and she and her team are completely accountable in terms of sticking to deadlines and responding to questions and concerns immediately.
Marygrace has also been an outstanding project manager by coordinating the work of other vendors as well as holding them to standards and deadlines. It’s been a pleasure to work with Marygrace and her team and also a relief to be able to trust that the home we spent so much time and effort finding will be a beautiful place we will love coming home to!

restaurant, birmingham
An absolute 10! We could not have completed the interior design of our new restaurant without Marygrace Design. Marygrace, guided us through every step, from floors to furniture she was able to guide the team with grace and insight. The best part of working with MGD was their organization. Also, familiarity with the process and access to the style of interiors we were looking for.
Marygrace was great at keeping the contractors and any other vendors on task. She has always listened to all of my ideas and come up with/execute a plan that reflects my taste. I can’t say enough good things about her. Whenever I have anything now that we want to alter I rest assured Marygrace will not only get the job done but it will be painless and end up exactly the way she says it will!
