With over 15 years of design experience, creative thinker, and the founder of Mardesign, Raquel, understands the benefits of engaging, high-quality design that creates comfortable and inspirational homes and working spaces. Everything Raquel does is focused yet clever, functional yet fun - and it’s always affordable. 


Being a qualified architect together with a natural talent for interior design, Raquel creates spaces that are not only eye-catching but also functional. Her background of working many years in hospitality projects where Raquel designed 5-star hotels, restaurants, spas, gentlemen’s clubs, lobby areas, and high-end residential has given her the experience and expertise of making spaces work and feel better, and by having a commercially driven mindset Raquel knows how to maximize any property ROI and elevate its performance, and increase investors wealth using design as a platform.


Her mission is to create stylish spaces that people love to call ‘their space’. This ensures a high return on investment, reduced voids, high occupancy rates, long-term tenancies, and an increase of property value for her clients, discerning property owners and investors across the country

  • THE 6-Step Solution for Solving ALL Problems

     07:00
    Let’s get this straight: Business isn't for the faint-hearted. Over the years I've had to deal with so much shit — rogue builders, no-show cleaners, and suppliers who can’t keep a deadline to save their lives. But guess what? I mastered how to turn all that mess into a money-making machine, and now it's your shot. Here's just a snippet of my 6-step framework:1️⃣ Cause and Consequence — get to the root and see what’s at stake.2️⃣Map your Timelines — track when things need to happen, and set those deadlines.3️⃣ Allies in Action — your crew is crucial, because no one wins solo4️⃣ Crafting your Fix — design a solution that’s not just a patch but a full-on fix.5️⃣ From Plans to Reality — execute with precision, don’t let those plans collect dust.6️⃣ Learn from the Journey — every problem is a lesson. Get smarter, get stronger.This isn’t just about damage control — it’s about owning the process and leading the charge. If you're spinning in circles, pretending you’re “too busy” to address the chaos, then you’re not just stuck — you’re sinking. Take control, make smart moves, and turn those problems into stepping stones.
