Our History

Jillian Dinkel’s creative storytelling journey began in New York City as she launched her career working in fashion at Condé Nast, spending nearly a decade working with some of the world's most influential creators, athletes and artists including Patrick Demarchelier, Taylor Swift, Gisele, LeBron James, Jennifer Lopez, Ellen von Unwerth, and Tom Brady. It was during this time Jill honed her skills in creative collaboration, complex logistics and developed her signature aesthetic through her global travels for fashion shoots.

In 2016, Jill shifted gears, leaving Vogue to pursue her own creative passions in Interior Design. Jill has been honing her craft in the interiors sphere, building her network of creative collaborators to produce stunning interiors projects that reflect both her client's own experiences and honour the historic passage of time within the heritage and period homes. Her Sydney Studio specialises in reimagining. Jill’s work has been recognised in leading interiors publications, including Vogue Living, CASA Vogue, Belle Magazine, House and Garden, The Local Project and Sydney Morning Herald.

She has been recognised as an “Emerging Design Star” by Belle Magazine and as one of the globe's leading female designers by Beta-Plus Publishing.
