About Happy House
Melanie Lybrand
Interior Designer
Melanie is a graduate of the Interior Design program at West Valley College in Saratoga, California. Born and raised in Urbana, IL, Melanie has lived in several areas of the country making Santa Cruz, California her home in 2001. Her time in the Mid-West and Upstate New York has given her a creative take on California style. She loves blending seemingly disparate styles, eras, and even colors; resulting in a magical mix that is surprisingly harmonious and refreshingly unique. She finds inspiration from faraway places and ordinary objects; from fine art and folk art; from the glimmer of precious gemstones and the texture of a river rock. She loves putting her years in the industry to work with her creative talents to design homes that reflect the people who live there, support their lifestyle, and make their home a wonderful place to be, a happy house.
