I’ve been working in a creative field since college, where I went to school for Fashion Merchandising and Marketing. Early in my career I focused on creating and styling window displays for clients like Urban Outfitters, Sporting Life, and many independent boutiques around Toronto.
Moving from home to home and seeing the impact that a well-styled space had on making it stand out in the real estate market is what shifted my interest to interior design. An opportunity arose when an agent I was working with asked if I would be interested in staging listings for her. Though it wasn’t a career choice I had thought of before her offer – 6+ years in I can’t imagine doing anything else!
Since then I have worked as in independent contractor, staging for real estate agents and home owners as well as holding the position as Lead Stylist for a prominent stager in the industry. Taking on projects from 1 bedroom condos to 6 bedroom estates and managing a full team of stylists and tradespeople. My style blends Scandinavian minimalism and casual bohemia with vintage and naturalistic touches. I love to source items from a treasure trove of antique shops and comprehensively use the highest quality modern furniture rentals in my staging.
Let me help you show off the love you’ve had for your home, and ensure that any potential buyer will be able to see themselves loving it, too.
“Qwyn is such a pleasure to work with. I’m a stickler for streamlined service and I have to say her system works; no micromanaging needed. Not only is she super organized, responsive and intuitive, but she has a vision and is a master at bringing it life.”
