About Murphy Lane Interiors

Minnesota-based interior design studio creating warm, collected interiors with character—thoughtfully shaped around the people who call them home.

  • Designed Around Real Life

    A beautiful home should work beautifully, too. Every design begins with understanding how you live, from the rhythms of your everyday routine to the moments you want your home to make room for.

  • Unmistakably Yours

    Your home should feel like a reflection of you, not your social media feed. We consider what you love, what you value, and what makes your story unique to create a space that feels personal, collected, and authentically yours.

  • Thoughtful by Design

    The best spaces feel effortless, but every detail has a reason for being there. From layout and proportion to materials, finishes, and furnishings, each decision is made with intention to create a home that feels cohesive, considered, and made to last.

I’m Makenzie, founder and principal designer of Murphy Lane Interiors. My love for design first took shape in my own home on Murphy Lane, where creating a space that truly felt like mine sparked a deeper appreciation for the role our homes play in the way we live.

As my own life evolved, so did my perspective on home. I began to see our homes as the backdrop to so many of life’s most meaningful moments. Christmas mornings. The first steps of little feet. Even the ordinary Tuesday nights that somehow become the memories we look back on years later.

That perspective still shapes the way I design today.

MAKENZIE VICKERS

Founder & Principal Designer

I believe our homes should authentically reflect who we are, support the way we live, and make room for all of the ordinary and extraordinary moments that happen within them. My role as a designer is to understand the people behind the project and bring the creative vision and expertise to translate that into a home that feels distinctly theirs.

My philosophy behind Murphy Lane Interiors has grown and evolved right alongside me, and there’s much more to the story than I can fit here. If you’d like to know more about me and the story behind the studio, I’ve shared more over on my blog, The Design Journal.
