Animator turned interior designer Bren Sutton fell head-over-heels for the interior design industry after her website selling art and patterned cushions took off. Now, she's running a fully-fledged interior design business from her home studio in central Auckland — helping Kiwis transform their homes into beautiful, inspired spaces.
