About Maraye

Founded in 2010 by Lannetta Knotts, Maraye Design Studio is a Black-owned interior design firm with a clear mission: to provide inspired and functional interior design solutions that meet deadlines and stay within or below project budgets.

Serving clients across the Midwest in-person and nationwide virtually, Maraye Design has created a process that ensures a seamless experience, no matter the size or scope of the project. Our talented team of designers works closely with homeowners, contractors, and architects to transform spaces—from K-12 schools and university buildings to office renovations and residential interiors.

At Maraye Design Studio, we understand that great design goes beyond aesthetics—it impacts the way people live, work, and learn. That’s why our services are centered around creating environments that are not only beautiful but functional and accessible. We specialize in project management, space planning, interior design, accessible design, interior finishes, movable furnishings (including selection, specifications, procurement, and installation), and move planning.

With a strong foundation in public bid formulation and government and state contracts, we bring expertise to every phase of the project, ensuring compliance and excellence.

At Maraye Design Studio, we are committed to turning your vision into reality while creating spaces where people can thrive.
