OUR PHILOSOPHY
Founded in 2014, personalspace is driven by the belief that good design fosters self-confidence.
Driven by an innate curiosity, our designers discover what drives clients - their passions, loves, family culture - and intricately weave those themes into creative unique spaces. We have found that if a space is created based on what clients truly value most, the space is a source of confidence for every part of their life. Parenting becomes more effortless. Creativity for work projects flow. Fun is had by all.
Why? Because the friction between the client’s needs and their living space is removed. The space now supports their life goals and their family culture.
