● About
Where Creativity Runs Free
Atelier J began as a pipedream for a mom of two seeking to creatively balance home and work lives. Having practised as an Architect for over ten years on both large residential masterplans and small dwelling designs, Atelier J’s founder Georgy switched gears to raising happy little humans adjacent to pursuing this goal:
To share her vision of a holistic nurturing home design service.
Truly understanding of the meaning of good honest no nonsense home design, the team at Atelier J are a safe pair of hands who will guide you through the tentative early stages of your renovation, be it big, small, or somewhere in the middle.
Based on the philosophy that homes should be messy, magical works in progress, and creatively yours.
