“Bringing out the personality in a space, while keeping in mind its practical day-to-day uses, drives my design.”
Hello!
I’m Patricia, and I’m glad you stopped by. I design residential and business interiors, with projects ranging from curating zoom backgrounds to total gut remodels. My clients include small businesses, homeowners ready to personalize their homes and add function, merge living spaces, remodel, downsize, or work from home, and Realtors and sellers looking to stand out in the market. My favorite projects incorporate personal and historic elements in a modern way, reflecting the individuality of my clients and bringing out their style with integrity and care.
Before starting Polished Studio I was a retail entrepreneur, with a series of small boutiques, and I designed a line of accessories. I understand how important it is to create a space that others want to spend time in, as I’ve spent my career designing the experience people have as they pass through a threshold.
My family recently moved from Portland to Walla Walla, and we are enjoying exploring our new town. The amount of public space devoted to art and parks drew us here and will inspire my design. I love walking through the neighborhoods and campus with coffee as a destination, four legged companion at my side.
I’m a voracious reader of literary fiction, current events, and politics — especially as they relate to economics and societal trends — and sometimes I write. A meal shared with friends, a Netflix marathon, a thick novel on a rainy day, and taking turns perusing sections of the Sunday Times, are just a few of my favorite things. I volunteer registering people to vote. If you are looking for a volunteer opportunity, please consider joining me.
Thank you for visiting!
