​Interior Designer Mikel Welch

As someone who has always liked being creative and enjoyed art, I found Interior Design to be a fun career path to follow. I can create unique designs in spaces with different colors, patterns, furniture, and decor. I find it fascinating that a room can have a completely new vibe, with the right transformation. Everyone has their own style, that is why I find it amazing with just how much you can customize a space. An African American designer I found interesting was Mikel Welch.
 
Mikel Welch is an Interior designer who focuses on luxurious designs with affordable prices. He does work in a variety of cities and does residential design services. Welch helps bring his clients’ visions to life, by curating a virtual design with the space they provided. He often uses a neutral color palette in his designs, while also making sure the room isn't boring. He uses textures, decor, plants, and paintings that bring the look together.
 
Welch grew up in Southfield, Michigan. When he realized from a young age, he had a passion for design. He now runs a design business in New York. He’s also a host on Quibi’s Murder House Flip, where he helps give tips and tricks on how to sophisticate a space. His designs have been featured on The Real Housewives of Atlanta, HGTV, and Good Morning America.
 
In 2020 Welch is known for being in the New York Times. He was featured in Agricultural Digest, Traditional Home, and many more. This is important because it allows other designers to get inspiration from his work. He's one of the many African American designers who are creating well-crafted designs. He’s an example of how you can follow your passions and make something of it.
