Hello, I’m Anna McGary.

 

Principal Designer and Founder of MOTIV Interiors

I work with our clients to create unique spaces that tell their story - while truly supporting their lifestyle needs and wellbeing. When I founded MOTIV Interiors, my vision was to make the experience of transforming your home feel less overwhelming and more like enjoying your favorite meal with your best friend at your favorite restaurant.

Growing up in the beauty of Tennessee’s forests and Montana’s mountains and valleys, I was keenly aware of the impact that the natural environment can have on us and vice versa. My family included a few educators and musicians so I was fortunate to be exposed to and participate in the arts from a young age. I find so much magic in reading, writing, film, theater, fashion, dance and visual art - I love finding what inspires each client and transforming their lives with design.

I moved to Nashville to be a singer/songwriter/musician and found myself at Watkins College of Art - where it became my focus to build an Interior Design practice around sustainable products and practices. Since beginning my journey, I’ve gained extensive experience in interior design, sustainability, real estate investing, hospitality, wellness and feng shui. I have a deep understanding of how to create a physical space that resonates with you and supports the life you are building - I’ve also been through a renovation or two myself and understand the importance of having a clear process, an amazing concept and the right team for the job.

When I’m not designing, I enjoy time in nature with my dog Eli, gardening, cooking and spending time with friends. You can follow my musical journey as mustanganna, Nashville based singer/songwriter/producer and multi-instrumentalist (@mustangannamusic).

Yes - I'm ready!

While my design philosophy is always evolving - I believe every successful project blends art, science, and magic:

  • The art of high design with intentionality; an understanding of the elements and principles of design, and how to play with them to create inspiration and beauty in your personal spaces. Your home should tell your story, inspire you and restore you.

  • The science of making your home function to support your life and goals is complex - we are always seeking a deeper understanding by learning and innovating. We strive to bring the best solutions forth and educate our clients about their options.

  • The magic is weaving our clients’ unique personalities, lifestyles, and essence into the details of each space and bringing a home back to life. We love hearing about what speaks to your soul and we’re excited to help you tell your story!

 Kind Words From Wonderful Clients

  • Whitney Boon

    MOTIV Interiors did an amazing job transforming my eight-year-old daughter's bedroom into a sophisticated nature-themed sanctuary, including unique sustainable pieces, fresh artwork, gorgeous wallpaper, personally curated plants, abundant storage space for LEGOs and books, and even a hanging swing chair! My daughter is over-the-moon in love with it and I am confident that the room will continue to suit her as she grows. It was exactly what we wanted, including pieces that we would not have thought of ourselves. Even better than the finished product, though, was my personal experience working with Anna and her team. Her flexibility, personal touches, focus on sustainability, excellent communication skills, responsiveness, and even generosity have restored my faith in the industry. I am excited to continue to work with MOTIV Interiors in the future.

  • Marisa Byard

    Anna is so great at what she does. I do not have an eye for making my house not only functional but looking good too, but I don’t need that with Anna. She came in and got a feel for what I wanted and how to make it work. My place looks great and I get so many compliments when people come over now!

  • Tami Heimbach

    Anna is amazing! I was overwhelmed with where to start with decorating my new home. She and I walked through each room and she gave me ideas and drew out the details for me. She was the perfect consultant and I've used all of her suggestions.
