With backgrounds in design and real estate, Leslie Martin and Kimberly Meardon are sisters who are passionate about creating homes that are rooted in traditional design, yet feel current and approachable. As mothers of nine children between the two of them, they are always mindful that a home can look incredible and still remain functional, creating classic spaces for modern families. Their method of employing bold colors and vibrant patterns combined with antiques and vintage finds achieves a result that is both current and timeless, rather than limited to a defined style or period.
M + M Interior Design (M + M stands for Martin and Meardon) was named among Traditional Home’s Rising Stars for their portfolio that is dynamic, layered, and effortlessly livable. Based in the Chicago area and La Jolla, California, the pair has tackled projects from coast to coast and have been featured in national and international publications, including multiple books.
Let’s take a look at some highlights of their work!

The dark-haired sister (Kimberly?) was featured on a Homeworthy video. She was truly inspirational and instructional. Her CA home is smaller but oh so wonderful and functional for a larger family. Check it out!
Wow! One of the most gorgeous portfolios I’ve seen in a long time! Love their take on traditional, and all the colors and patterns.
thanks for sharing. I have the dining room chair too !
I love small details: especially the tiger print pillow with the blue pillows and the cloisonné vase.
I watched the Homeworthy episode that featured Leslie’s home. I could not believe she had 5 children and still her home looked beautiful, tasteful & very functional! These sisters are a talented duo and I will continue to follow their work!
