How Envision and Create came about …

In recent times, I have developed a real passion for interior design. As a hairdresser, creative styling has been an integral part of my life for many years. This has led me to shift my creative focus from personal care to home renovations and interior decorating.

Having worked with tradespeople to create my own home renovations, I experienced first-hand the importance of coordinating style with functional designs; thus bringing a new dimension to my creative work.

I am passionate about helping others to envision and create new spaces in their homes that reflect the family’s needs while providing aesthetically pleasing areas. Nothing brings me more joy than to see textures, colours and furniture pieces work cohesively to create a beautiful space that exudes comfort, class and of course, functionality. In fact, designing and decorating can definitely be described as “my happy place!”

After years of showcasing my own projects and being asked to style and decorate the homes of others, it was a natural progression to find my place in this industry. I have always had deep admiration for the way homes are built with the incredible craftsmanship tradespeople share while working to bring amazing designs into reality.
