With her Bachelor Degree in Interior Architecture, Rene Whiley has a background in fast-paced turnkey fitouts. Working along both larger and smaller, more private, firms, she has learned to lean into the process of the design and build industry.

 

While being the lead designer on her projects, her responsibility often overlapped into the other fields such as Procurement, Quantity Estimation and Project management. 

 

Being able to be part of the full scope worked well with her meticulous nature, and soon led to the start up of her own Design Studio - Situ. Here she is able to explore designs into more depth, experimenting with bespoke furniture and art pieces, as well as pushing the boundaries on building materiality.
