How Interiors By Madeline Transforms Spaces in Cleveland and Steamboat Springs
At Interiors By Madeline, we believe that design is more than just aesthetics; it’s about creating an experience that resonates with the people who interact with the space. We specialize in designing environments that look stunning and evoke a deep sense of comfort and functionality. You can read a little more about why this is so important to me in the About Section of the website.
Whether designing a modern retreat in Cleveland, or a cozy mountain hotel in Steamboat Springs, our approach remains the same: to craft spaces that feel as good as they look.
Creating Impactful, Experiential Designs
Our core philosophy at Interiors By Madeline is simple: Design that creates an experience. This idea is central to all the work we do. We approach each project with the belief that spaces should be more than just functional; they should evoke emotions, enhance the way people live and work, and reflect the personalities of those who use them.
For example, our recent project, Birdietown Mini Golf + Lounge , a 12,000-square-foot restaurant and entertainment venue in Lakewood, Ohio, perfectly embodies this approach. Housed in a historic building, the renovation required a careful balance of preserving its architectural character while introducing modern design elements. The result is a space that feels both nostalgic and contemporary, where guests can dive into an experience that is as visually captivating, comfortable, and fun!
Inspiration: Nature, Travel, and Architecture
Inspiration is everywhere, and I often draw from a variety of sources to guide our design choices. Nature, travel, and architecture are our top influences, and we incorporate elements of each into our designs. Whether it’s the natural materials we choose - wood, stone, or metal - or the way we interpret the world’s diverse architecture, we strive to make each project feel like an immersive journey.
We take inspiration from every corner of the world, including our own backyard, bringing it into our designs, ensuring each space is unique and speaks to the environment and culture surrounding it. Whether you’re in Cleveland, Steamboat Springs, or anywhere else, our designs bring the beauty of nature and travel into the heart of your home or business.
Balancing Aesthetics and Functionality
While creating a visually stunning space is essential, functionality remains at the core of great design. A well-designed space should be intuitive, easy to navigate, and support everyday activities seamlessly.
Key elements that balance form and function include:
Smart space planning: Thoughtful layouts that enhance movement and usability.
Storage solutions: Custom cabinetry and multi-functional furniture that maximize space.
Durable materials: High-quality finishes that are both beautiful and built to last.
For families, this could mean designing a high-traffic kitchen that withstands daily use while still feeling stylish and cohesive. For hospitality spaces like The Nest, it involves choosing materials that are easy to maintain while offering a luxury guest experience.
Celebrating Trends: Earthy Tones, Curved Furniture, and Clean Lines
At Interiors By Madeline, we stay ahead of the curve by keeping up with the latest design trends through research and development. For 2025, we’re excited to incorporate clever storage solutions, earthy and moody tones, and incorporating both minimalism and maximalism into our projects. These trends give each space personality and character while maintaining the timeless quality we’re known for.
From the use of organic textures and patterns to incorporating contemporary furniture that serves as a focal point in the space, we aim to create designs that are not only stylish but also functional and inviting. Our spaces are built to last, but always with a nod to the present and the future.
The Power of Our Team
Our team is a key element in bringing our designs to life. We believe in collaboration within our team, with trades and suppliers. Our goal is to grow a creative team that thrives on shared vision and mutual respect. At Interiors By Madeline, we don’t just design spaces; we create experiences. By collaborating closely, we bring out the best in every project, embracing different perspectives from team members.

Looking Ahead: Exciting New Projects
Looking toward the future, we’re very excited about the projects we have in progress and those that are just beginning. From a residential penthouse to two commercial spaces in Lakewood: a salon and a gaming lab, we are focused on delivering exceptional designs that meet the unique needs of each client.
Whether it’s creating unique restaurant designs or transforming historic spaces, we are always striving to push the boundaries of what’s possible in interior design. We have so much more that we can’t wait to share with you, but at the heart of it all, our philosophy is that good design creates an experience.
