TEAM

Jenn Messina

FOUNDER & PRINCIPAL

Jenn resides in Marin County, where she raised two children, and developed her design studio after personally remodeling and building 14 homes. As of 2016, she began designing for clients, and has since developed an incredible network of vendors and artisans who bring the designs to life.


Jenn's love affair with designing spaces began in childhood. She intuitively understood how to arrange, paint, and choose decor that excited her. Having a unique space made her feel special.


Jenn's mission is to work intimately with her clients to uncover what truly inspires them and how they want to live in their homes. She understands the importance of design being a functional reflection of who her clients are so that when the work is done, they can look around, take a deep breath, and feel grounded, at ease, and totally in love with their spaces.


Jenn's passion for travel keeps her mind open to discover how other cultures resolve design challenges and create design opportunities. She has met with artisans and designers worldwide. She then takes these exciting perspectives home to her projects, further inspiring the collaboration to bring her clients' dreams to life.


She loves being with her kids, listening to the ocean, hiking, Pilates, having dinner under string lights, reading and live music.
