Elena’s roots are in São Paulo, Brazil, where she grew up between the homes of her boho-chic mother and truly minimalist architect father. Her upbringing in the dynamic cityscape, weekends at the beach and vacations at the ranch, complemented by years living in Italy and the USA (Austin included!), added layers to her sense of aesthetics, developing an appreciation for a sophisticated yet relaxed approach to living.

With a background in product and graphic design and a brief foray into the agribusiness realm, Elena returned to Austin in 2016 where she completed her Master's Degree in Interior Design at UT Austin’s School of Architecture.

As an interior designer, Elena goes beyond aesthetics, focusing on creating functional and inviting spaces. For her, it's not just about designing rooms; it's about elevating your daily experience by crafting unique and personalized designs tailored to meet your needs.

Fun fact: Elena grew up in a spherical house, and that unique experience might be the reason she always thinks outside the box!
