My name is Taryn-lee Bettencourt. I am an Interior Designer with a deep passion for people and meaningful designs. I approach design with the intention to challenge the culture of convenience and fast-paced living. This mission is guided by my manifesto, "Beauty of Beginnings," which emphasises the idea that true beauty in design lies at the beginning—the phase where ideas, dreams, and fantasies come to life. With my expertise, I aim to make these dreams, fantasies, and ideas a tangible reality. Hand in hand with this symbolic outlook on design is my use of minimally processed materials that showcase the beauty of materials in their "Beginning" stages.
