Madeline Barber
Account Lead
Madeline grew up with design in her orbit thanks to her aunt, a successful interior designer who gave her a front-row seat to the world of sketches, materials, and big creative ideas. She went on to study Strategic Communications, picked up photography along the way, and has since shot everything from weddings to interiors. At Habitat Creative, she gets to combine it all. Her eye for visuals, her love for design, and her knack for clear communication.
Ask any client and they’ll tell you: Madeline is their biggest cheerleader. She digs into how they work, what motivates them, and how to deliver the kind of wins that make them feel unstoppable. For her, design is about the impact it has on how we live, move, and feel in our spaces.
