Mercedes G Quintanilla is an accomplished Designer originally from El Salvador, who has cultivated a rich career blending interior design and architecture. She holds a bachelor’s degree in interior design from The Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale and a master’s degree in architecture from Boston Architectural College. Her journey began in El Salvador, where she started studying architecture before migrating to the U.S. After navigating challenges with transferring her transcripts, she began working in an architectural firm in 2000, where an unexpected introduction to interior design ignited her passion for creating captivating spaces.
With a strong foundation in construction documentation and an innate fascination for interiors, Mercedes adopts a holistic design approach that fosters a deep human-nature connection, promoting well-being in every environment. Her love for travel enriches her eclectic touch, allowing her to incorporate elements from her multicultural experiences into each project. This appreciation for diverse influences enables her to create spaces that resonate with her clients' stories and aspirations.
In 2013, after navigating the challenges of the economic downturn, she ventured into real estate investment, got her license, and founded Atlanta Investing Properties LLC, specializing in flipping residential properties that required significant transformation. This hands-on experience in project management has equipped her with invaluable skills for overseeing complex design projects and renovations, as well as managing intricate real estate transaction paperwork.
After a rewarding journey in real estate, Mercedes returned to her true passion—design—in 2016, while continuing to manage real estate renovations on the side. As her real estate, remodeling, and design work deepened, particularly in residential and workspace design, Atlanta Investing Properties LLC naturally evolved into a design studio. Today, she blends her expertise with her design skills to craft unique spaces that nourish the soul and elevate well-being
