Today we’d like to introduce you to Meredith Rodday.
Meredith, please share your story with us. How did you get to where you are today?
I discovered my passion for design by complete accident. I was deep in the throes of infertility treatments and was looking for a distraction so I started a blog.
I had no idea what I was going to blog about when I first started but it soon became clear that anything related to interior design was a huge source of interest for me. I started helping friends on the side for fun and then in 2015, I left my corporate job and career in HR to stay home with my kids (!) who were turning 3 at the time.
That fall I decided to turn my side hobby into something more and my design business was born! It quickly spread through word of mouth and last year I created the more formal name, Meredith Rodday Design, which is now a thriving design studio!
Great, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
Definitely not! I knew nothing when I started and had to learn the business from the ground up. I threw myself into situations that were out of my comfort zone, fell down a couple of times, but got up and gained confidence as I went. I hadn’t even been to the Boston Design Center before one day in 2016 when I needed to source some fabric! There is still so much to learn!
Please tell us about Meredith Rodday Design.
Meredith Rodday Design is, clearly, an interior design business! I specialize in taking empty or outdated spaces and giving them new life with a fresh and modern feel. My personal style is a mix of east coast meets west coast with a clean, casual, and refined vibe. I pride myself on getting to get to know my clients on a personal level so that the end result truly represents their aesthetic – but with my twist!
Do you look back particularly fondly on any memories from childhood?
I grew up riding horses so my favorite memory is being at the barn around all of the ponies and horses, totally in my element!
