Monika Nessbach, the creative force behind Designbar in Charlotte, NC, defies conventions with her rebellious approach to design. Raised near Köln, Germany, she absorbed the essence of modern and postmodern design, forging her unique creative voice. With a background in international business and an insatiable thirst for a more daring existence, Monika delved into the world of commercial design, founding Designbar as a haven for audacity. Join her in defying the ordinary and igniting a revolution in design by doing epic shit.

WHY DESIGNBAR? Designbar is not just another interior design firm. When I founded designbar, my goal was to create something different. I want our clients to have a different experience and also know that they will get a result that would “wow” them. There is no doubt that we are a little bit more unconventional, edgy and daring but I believe there is a market for that. Especially when looking at some of the segments that we serve, such as hospitality and multi-family living. 

As for our team, I wanted to create a space for creative minds to grow, flourish and have fun. My thought is that you will accomplish amazing things if you have a good time doing them. You don’t even realize that you are working because it just flows. Whenever I am completely immersed in the creative design process, I don’t even realize it, but time flies. And I want everyone at designbar to feel the same excitement and love when coming to the office.
