We believe the best homes begin with understanding the people who will live in them. We take the time to understand how our clients live, what they love, and what they want their home to become.
From the earliest decisions through the final details, we consider the home as a whole—creating a clear vision that guides each choice along the way. The result is a home that feels cohesive, considered and deeply personal.
The studio
Born and raised in Australia, Renee has always had a love for beautiful homes and interiors. With English roots and years spent living and traveling in different parts of the world, her eye has been shaped by a mix of influences and a particular appreciation for homes with history, character and a sense of place.
Renee’s career in the home industry began in 2007 when she opened Olivia + Rose, a home furnishings boutique. Her love of interiors soon led her to study interior design and eventually establish her own design firm. For more than 15 years, she has had the privilege of designing homes for clients across the country. Today, Renee leads the studio’s creative vision and works closely with clients throughout the design process.
Outside the studio, Renee is happiest antique hunting, exploring a beautiful old town somewhere, enjoying good food, or gathering family and friends around the table. An avid traveler, she also has a seemingly never-ending list of places she’d love to explore.

Beyond the Design House
As part of the broader Patina Living Co. brand, PLCo. Design House is one expression of a bigger idea—one that extends beyond the spaces we design to the way we live.
It’s the idea of creating a life more beautiful—not through perfection, but through the things we choose to surround ourselves with, the way we spend our time, the people we share it with, and the experiences that enrich our lives.
Patina Living Co. brings together inspiration, ideas, objects and experiences to help you notice, create and cultivate more of what makes life beautiful.
