Influential Women Profiles: Macarena Darsie: A Visionary Leader in Luxury Design and Project Management
Macarena Darsie, an accomplished Senior Interior and Exterior Designer, Project Manager, and Business Developer, is making waves in the luxury design industry with her unique approach that combines elegance and practicality. With over 15 years of extensive experience, Macarena has established herself as a formidable force, successfully leading projects in high-end residential, commercial, retail, and hospitality sectors.
As the Founder and Principal Designer of Darsie Design, Macarena oversees every aspect of the design and project management process. From initial conceptualization and budgeting to final execution, her meticulous attention to detail ensures that each project reflects her clients’ vision.
Beyond design, Macarena has built a reputation for her global sourcing expertise and strategic project management. She collaborates directly with international manufacturers and suppliers across the U.S., China, Italy, and Spain, ensuring access to exclusive materials and cost-efficient solutions that elevate every project. This business-minded approach sets her apart as both a designer and a leader in global design logistics.
Macarena’s expertise lies not only in her strong understanding of materials, FF&E, and supply-chain logistics but also in her proficiency with advanced design technologies, including 3D rendering and AI-assisted tools.
Having previously held key positions at renowned firms such as Interiors by Steven G. and Nest Plans, Macarena has overseen multimillion-dollar custom homes and luxury developments, solidifying her reputation in the competitive world of luxury design. Her fluency in both English and Spanish allows her to connect with a diverse clientele, drawing from her educational background at Universidad Católica de Córdoba and her experience working across Latin America and the U.S..
Macarena’s design aesthetic is a harmonious blend of modern minimalism, the warmth of Japandi style, and the timeless beauty of transitional design. Her creative process merges intuition with precision—combining technical mastery, storytelling, and a deep respect for craftsmanship. This unique fusion has earned her recognition as a thought leader in the design community.
“I love designing spaces that tell a story—whether it’s the warm ambiance of a high-end restaurant, the bold energy of a nightclub, or the refined elegance of a luxury residence,” Macarena explains. “No matter the style, I bring creativity, functionality, and a touch of personality to every project.”
Macarena credits her success to hard work, dedication, and an unwavering commitment to her vision. She came to the United States from Argentina with the dream of owning her own design business—and 15 years later, that dream has become a reality. The most valuable career advice she has ever received is simple yet powerful: you can achieve anything you set your mind to. This guiding principle carried her from the early challenges of learning a new language to earning advanced credentials in AI-driven architecture and design, proving that perseverance and determination can turn ambition into achievement.
Macarena is passionate about empowering women in construction and design, encouraging them to stand firm in a field often dominated by men. “Never let anyone tell you that you can’t or that you don’t belong on site,” she says. “With resilience, skill, and determination, you can earn respect and lead any project.” Her own path—marked by persistence and strength—reflects the power of breaking barriers through hard work and confidence.
Beyond her professional achievements, Macarena lives her work with passion and purpose. She approaches every project with the same dedication she brings to her life—balancing long days on-site and late-night design reviews with time for family, travel, and moments that fuel creativity. For her, design is not only about beauty and function but about translating emotion, culture, and vision into spaces that tell real stories. That same drive guides how she lives—present, grateful, and always building something meaningful.
As she continues to expand Darsie Design’s international presence, Macarena remains driven by one goal: creating spaces that not only look extraordinary but also shape how people live, connect, and feel.
