Having worked In a variety of design positions all her working life, Jenny's design aesthetic has been augmented with practical building experience during the last twenty years. What started as a serendipitous transition into building design has become a passion, with Jenny having now completed a wide range of design projects - from small renovations and joinery design, through to complete house builds.

As far as she's concerned, the phrase "It's exactly what we wanted, but we'd never have thought of it" is what successful design Is all about.
