We’re thrilled to welcome designer Michelle Thompson to the Urbanwalls Trendsetter family. Michelle describes her design journey as “a labour of love but very, very rewarding”—and one look at her work makes it easy to see why. With a style she calls enduring, her approach blends timeless appeal with just enough personality to make a space truly yours.

Inspiration from Travel and Nature
Michelle’s creativity is constantly fueled by her travels, whether she’s spotting intricate tilework in a boutique hotel or admiring textures in nature. She’s also quick to credit the endless inspiration she finds online, especially on Pinterest. These influences converge in designs that feel both sophisticated and approachable.

From Renovations to a Design Career
Her path to becoming a sought-after designer was anything but linear. Michelle and her husband began renovating and selling properties while working other jobs, and her love for interiors eventually transformed into a full-time career. Along the way, she’s embraced the thrill of seeing her vision come to life and leaving spaces better than she found them.

Confidence, Growth, and the Urbanwalls Collection
Michelle admits she experienced imposter syndrome early in her career. Now, she says, “I really trust my own instinct and expertise.” Her debut collection with Urbanwalls is a celebration of that growth—versatile designs with a classic touch, meant to stand the test of time.

We can’t wait for you to bring Michelle’s enduring style into your own home. Explore her collection and see how thoughtful, curious, and creative design can transform any space.
