Camilla is an architect and interior designer, and the founder of Architecture Ventures, a design studio specialising in the transformation of family homes, heritage properties, and commercial spaces.

Known for her “zero-build-first” approach, she challenges the assumption that more space is the answer; focusing instead on unlocking the full potential of what already exists. Her work spans contemporary family living, sensitive interventions within listed and historic buildings, and the reimagining of commercial environments, always balancing functionality, character, and long-term value.

She has a particular passion for working with heritage properties, bringing a thoughtful and respectful approach to enhancing period character while adapting spaces for modern life. Her award-winning project, Mount Pleasant, recognised by the Homebuilding & Renovating Awards as Best Interior, is a standout example of this, transforming a period home into a beautifully cohesive and highly functional family space.

Camilla is known for bringing clarity and calm to what is often an overwhelming process, guiding clients from first ideas through to completion with confidence and care.

Alongside her design work, she speaks openly about the realities of running a creative business while raising four children, offering an honest and refreshing perspective on ambition, resilience, and redefining success on your own terms.
