n order to find the right interior designer for your space, you need to first look for one whose visual aesthetics you admire and with whom you can be involved in the decision-making process so that your personality is reflected in the results. Lena Doull from Dwell Interiors has been creating beautiful interiors since 2009 and loves nothing more than working with clients and collaborating on the interior design of their home. “The main focus is to guide clients to create a home with unique interior spaces that reflect their individuality, a home that they can really live in and relax in,” she says. It’s this working with, rather than working for clients, that Lena enjoys.

LENA DOULL FROM DWELL INTERIORS SHARES H E R I N S I G H T S O N C R E AT I N G A N I N T E R I O R T H AT C O M P L E M E N T S YOUR PERSONALIT Y AND CONTEMPOR ARY TRENDS. Her constantly evolving style is based on clean contemporary lines and contrasting natural textures – created to be practical for purpose as well as visually pleasing. “We strive to stay ahead of the game with material finishes and separate the trends and materials before they become mainstream,” says Lena. Well-considered design concepts are presented in a variety of formats and illustrate the absolute passion and joy she has for all things interior. Whether this is in the form of mood boards, colour boards, CAD drawings, rendered images or the architectural scale models that Lena creates. “Until they see what’s possible, it’s often hard for clients to visualise the design and interior layout,” says Lena. In addition to providing visuals for the design concept, Dwell Interiors works with each client to research materials and creates an impeccably detailed schedule of finishes, including hard and soft furnishings, lighting design and electrical fittings, appliances, bathroom fittings and tapware. In bringing her vision to life, Lena encourages her clients to be bold. “An idea that seems impactful may not be as risky as the client thinks it’s going to be, whether it’s in relation to an innovative splashback or a textured bathroom tile or an unusual but beautiful light fitting.” Lena and the team at Dwell Interiors have a diverse portfolio of completed projects, including private residences, recent Registered Master Builders House of the Year award winners, and show homes throughout Canterbury. If you are looking for inspired interiors, with a contemporary and natural twist, you may have found your answer. 021 050 4622 | dwellhomes.co.nz
