Founder & Interior Designer

Renee Carman

Renee Carman, a native of Mandeville Canyon, brings her love for nature and unique design perspective to every project she undertakes. Growing up in Southern California, Renee found inspiration in the organic materials and natural light that surrounded her. She is driven to create spaces that balance beauty and functionality while paying attention to the power of nature, color, texture, sight, sounds, smell, and spatial awareness. Neuro-aesthetics, the science of beautiful design, impacts our overall wellbeing and Renee acknowledges and respects the profound impact that this has on our biology.

Renee's journey began with a background in musical theater, but the desire to create beautiful and environmentally-conscious homes led her to the world of interior design. After completing coursework at the Boston Architectural College, Renee started her own business in 2004, with a focus on creating spaces that harmonize with nature and resonate with her clients on a deeper level.

Renee's design philosophy is rooted in the belief that everyone deserves a safe and healthy home. By understanding how our brains react to different design elements, she is able to create spaces that foster mindful daily rituals and promote health and wellbeing. Her dedication to using locally-sourced materials, prioritizing fair-trade and female empowerment, and reducing carbon footprint adds to the sustainable, healthy, and mindful nature of her designs.

In addition to her commitment to sustainability, Renee is known for her talent as a "House Whisperer," taking into account not only the desires of her clients but also the essence of the house itself. As she looks towards the future, Renee is increasingly interested in teaching and lecturing on the importance of designing in balance with nature and bringing this concept to a wider audience.

Renee was a pleasure to work with and has great vision. We were doing a total rehab of a recently purchased property and she was able to look at a gutted out '50s cottage and turn it into a beautiful mid-century modern home. She understood our budget and timeline and was good about narrowing all our options down to just a few choices. This expedited the process, made it less difficult and more enjoyable. Once the rehab is done, we look forward to working with her again and finish the rest of the rooms.

Bill H.

Renee at Mandeville Canyon Interior Design was simply wonderful to work with. She was able to understand what we were looking for in terms of color, function and design from the moment we first spoke. She's easy to work with, goes above and beyond and delivers an outstanding design.

I highly recommend Renee and Mandeville Canyon Interior Design. I don't think I will attempt to decorate another room in my house without the help of Renee!

Pam O.

Love working with Renee and Mandeville Canyon Interior Design ! I had the opportunity to collaborate on a large scale design project recently and the results were fantastic! Creative, resourceful and one of kind design ideas made this design opportunity with Renee "one of a kind" Have a large or small project? You won't be disappointed!!

Mary S.

Renee not only has an amazingly creative eye, she also directed a massive renovation for us this past year that included the challenges of operating during the pandemic. She put together a team that had an incredible work ethic and brought the project in on-time and on-budget. She's a great listener. When we threw ideas at her, she was never dismissive; quite the contrary, she made them better. Her patience, attention to detail combined with her whacky sense of humor meant we were all able to smile while producing a home that we love. A great talent and a great lady.
