Hello! My name is Melody Wunrow...

...and I am the Founder and Interior Designer at Nowthen Studios. For as long as I can remember I have been obsessed with houses.

As a kid I built them out of Legos, leftover bricks, and cardboard boxes; I decorated my parents' shed to be a play house and built forts out of trees and anything else I could get my hands on. As a teen, this passion drove me to learn how to decorate, organize, and rearrange every room in the house. Everywhere I went, I wanted to make the environment around me beautiful, functionally intuitive, and effortless.

 

Today, interior design continues to fascinate me, and spurs me on to create homes with maximized functionality and aesthetic appeal. But more than this, I want to create environments full of fantasy and vibe. I’ve always had a big imagination - I’m a big romantic who is inspired by exotic and fantastical locations. Whether it’s a villa in the French countryside or Peter Pan’s tree house, I want to bring that sense of fantasy and those feelings of inspiration into my designs and people's lives. Transforming a home from a place of frustration into one that works seamlessly and effortlessly is amazing. But what is really rewarding is watching my clients’ eyes light up as they walk into their home and see it turned into a space full of wonder and delight.

If you would like to transform your home into a place you love to be in, reach out to us today! I would be delighted to help you turn your home into your dream destination!

THE STUDIO

Our Story

Nowthen Studios is a women-owned small business founded in April 2022 by interior designer Melody Wunrow. After years in the industry, she noticed a growing need for interior design in the Greenville, SC area that is tailored to the unique needs of young professionals and modern families. While there are many designers in this area, only a few are focused on creating interior designs that are more than just aesthetics. Melody had a vision that interiors should be about people: their lifestyle, their dreams, their goals, and their community. That every home should be more than just a beautiful space; it should be the foundation and support that makes living the life you desire an effortless delight. Interiors shape our lives in subtle but dramatic ways, so in order to create the future and lifestyle we desire, we need interiors created intentionally to help us achieve those dreams. This is why she founded Nowthen Studios. To create spaces for people who value quality time with their loved ones; for people who choose experiences over things; for people who love investing in their community and supporting others who share their values; and for people who believe in responsible stewardship. Our mission is not to just design interiors, it is to design a way of living that is consistent with who you are and what you value.

Our Founder​

After growing up in the Mojave Desert of California, Melody married Jonathan Wunrow and moved to the east coast to begin their life together. Throughout her life she has traveled all over the US, lived in 15 different homes in 7 states, been involved in several different ministries, and studied a wide variety of arts, crafts, and homemaking skills. Her professional career has included kitchen and bath design, professional organizing, architectural drafting, window treatments, home decor and antiques, customer service, management, and independent interior design consulting. She is a winner of Greenville Technical College's Start-Up Support Scholarship, and received their Certificate in Small Business Management in 2021. Melody is a member of Greenville's Women in Construction Forum, a recent graduate of Jo Chrobak's Interior Design Business School in London, England, and is currently completing an internship with Architect Jane Ann Bolin of Wildflower Design Studio. In her spare time she enjoys being outdoors, fashion modeling, and spending time with her husband, Jonathan, and rescue dog, Daisy. In addition, she is an advocate for sustainability and a supporter of local non-profits Safe Harbor, Rebuild Upstate, and ReCraft. Melody loves hanging out with people and is passionate about using her skills to lift others up.
