Mary Anne Smiley, recognized by her peers as one of the top interior designers in Dallas, was born in Seminole, Oklahoma and is an honor graduate of Oklahoma State University.
One of the first interior designers registered in the State of Texas after passing the NCIDQ exam, Mary Anne Smiley is a member of ASID, and is qualified in AutoCAD. She has been featured in a myriad of publications, and is the recipient of numerous awards for excellence in design.

Mary Anne's love of all things creative and artistic began as a child and included primitive architectural drawings. Upon enrolling in Architecture in the 60’s she was informed by the Dean that “women don’t enroll in architecture.” Undaunted, she enrolled in Fine Art and Interior Design. Her career has taken her coast to coast. After living for 18 years in Athens, Texas, a magnet for getaway homes and ranches of the rich and famous of Dallas beckoned she relocated her design firm to Dallas.
She is known for her use of pure color and pearl finish backgrounds, and for her avant-garde use of contemporary art. Her AutoCAD skills have given her the ability to design custom furnishings when unique and creative solutions are required. This often results in recognition for product design, and sometimes in collaboration with various artists.
Our firm is known for paying attention to detail and making sure a space is perfect before furniture is even introduced. From tile layout, to lighting placement, to wall finish, the smallest detail can make the biggest impact. As well as incorporating pops of pure color, creating custom furniture specific to the space, and placing original artwork, we strive to make your space unapologetically yours. Mary Anne also loves to come up with creative design solutions and think outside the box to make a space truly unique.
