Authentic design aligned with your values IS ...

… deeply personal

The interior of a home should embody and directly reflect the values, lifestyle and authenticity of its inhabitants. It should be an extension of you - your second skin.

… a transformation

The magic of taking what is static and bringing it to life as a reflection of one’s values is a journey that takes you beyond just filling a space, and has the power to transform your whole life.

Jen Gadiel’s brand of Interior Design is NOT about ...

Following trends.

Though it’s good to dig into why we are attracted to trendy.

Just for looks.

It is about unlocking the potential of your space to give back to you.

Always buying new.

Awareness of the true cost of new and exploring repurposing or reviving what we already have is always an option.

Construction gone awry.

It takes a good team and a solid process to bring a project to a satisfying closure.

Ego and pitfalls.

It takes experience and willingness for hard conversations to avoid falling prey to poor planning, difficult communication or lack of vision.
