About Me
Hi, I’m Vanessa, the founder of Renewed Spaces.
For as long as I can remember, I’ve been obsessed with transforming spaces—whether it was my own, a friend’s, or a client’s. Watching a room go from “meh” to “wow” has always brought me joy. But here’s the thing: in the beginning, I was all about the “wow” factor. Functionality? It didn’t always make the cut.
That all changed when life threw me into the deep end—managing a household with four busy, energetic boys. Suddenly, a beautiful space wasn’t enough; it had to work. I needed storage that could survive soccer cleats and Lego avalanches, systems that could keep the chaos at bay (most of the time), and designs that didn’t just look good but made life easier.
Over the years (and plenty of trial and error), I’ve learned that the secret to a truly amazing space isn’t just about how it looks—it’s about how it works for you. A space should feel effortless, like it was made just for your life, your quirks, and your everyday chaos. The beauty? That’s the cherry on top after nailing the function.
Now, I get my kicks from finding clever ways to turn dead corners into MVPs, designing storage solutions that make your daily routine smoother, and creating spaces that not only look incredible but also work like a dream. Whether you’re navigating your own brand of household chaos or just need a fresh start, I’m here to help you reclaim your space—and your sanity.
What to expect in our work together?
-
One of the most important thing when we start working together is getting to know you. Whether we are working on a physical space or doing a coaching session, knowing you is and connecting with you is the key to success.
-
Though I take our work together very seriously, I believe that a little humour and light-heartedness goes a long way. There may be some tough things that we explore together but I hope that when our work if complete you feel lighter and more productive.
-
I understand that your home, your things and even your thoughts hold memories, emotions, and daily routines that matter. Whether you’re overwhelmed by clutter, struggling to make a space work, or just need a fresh start, I take the time to listen and create solutions that feel right for you. No judgment, no pressure—just thoughtful, practical changes that make your space (and life) a little lighter.
-
I believe in honest advice, practical solutions, and always doing what’s best for you. There’s no upselling unnecessary products or pushing trendy fixes that won’t last—just thoughtful, functional designs that truly fit your needs. You can trust that every recommendation is made with care, transparency, and your best interest in mind.
