South African born Jenny’s sharp eye for aesthetics has been honed after years at the top of the fashion industry, as an award-winning fashion director for Conde Nast, Hearst Inc and Time Inc magazines. She says of her taste: “I like my schemes to be evocative. There is something impossibly chic but also malleable about 20th-century furniture. I’m not one for homogeneity, for me, it’s all about the mix, 1920s alongside 1970s. The Masculine with the feminine. It is in the blending of these things where I feel the beauty lies.”

 

Along with her London projects in Islington and Chelsea, Jenny’s first four major commissions have been in the US; a ski lodge in Jackson Hole, Wyoming and three houses on the coast of Malibu for which she also served as architectural and landscape design consultant working with one of America's foremost architects, Bobby McAlpine. Jenny’s childhood in Africa helped form her taste in interior design which is one of effortless luxury, the traditional alongside the contemporary and always the influences of the natural world deeply entrenched in her esthetic. “I am always drawn to the textures and colours of nature” say’s Jenny and she cites Axel Vervordt as one of the interior designers that most inspire her. 20th century design is another huge influence.
