about margaret.mccarthy design
A native of Atlanta, Georgia, and a graduate of Hillsdale College in Michigan, I have made my way to Chicago with a degree in Art and a passion for all things creative. An art study experience in the landscapes of Tuscany and an internship at an interior design magazine in Atlanta encouraged -- and educated -- me to pursue a career in the art field, despite the caricatured dangers of my "starving artist" future. I enjoy working with small businesses to provide print materials and web design for a branding experience that will thrive. My background (and continuing work) in studio art enhances a design aesthetic that is classically appealing with a contemporary twist. I appreciate each job that comes to me as a challenge for creating something beautiful that will stand out in an ever-expanding market.
