About | Patina Novum Studio

About Patina Novum

Patina Novum is a boutique interior design studio specializing in thoughtful, layered interiors for residential and commercial spaces. We work with clients seeking refined design solutions that feel personal rather than prescribed.

Our approach is collaborative and detail-driven. We prioritize functionality, longevity, and materials that age beautifully.

As a small practice, we intentionally limit the number of projects we take on. This allows us to provide attentive service, clear communication, and design solutions tailored specifically to each client.

Our Philosophy

We believe:

• Good design supports daily life.
• Beauty and practicality are inseparable.
• Timeless spaces outlast trends.
• Details matter.

From initial concept through final installation, our work is grounded in clarity, restraint, and purpose.

Our final designs nail our clients’ styles 🗣️100% of the time — here’s how:

🤩 we gather needs, initial style ideas, and inspiration from our clients

🧐 we then produce a Style Survey that allows them to pinpoint specific features that do and don’t appeal to them

🤔 we may even update the Survey if we feel we’ve got a little further to go in fully understanding their needs

🤓 we then share a Design Direction with notes specifying features for approval before starting the final selections

🙂‍↕️ by the time we present, our clients are 100% in love with the design and most importantly, feel 100% understood by us and themselves

🤎 our process guides our client to an expression that reflects their culture, unique experiences, and visual cues that make them feel uplifted and valued in ways they hadn’t considered. A professional designer blends all these nuances with your functional needs and budget with cohesion and harmony🤎

@westelm ‘s Telluride sectional and Porto Swivel Chair with the Concrete Waterfall Coffee Table were the exact companions my clients needed for this pseudo outdoor conversation pit🖤 The seats are deep and extra plush, so afternoon naps got a major upgrade. Amazing quality at a great price will always seal the deal!

🪟Measure window width – Add several inches on each side for opening the drapes to reveal a larger looking window.

🪟Consider your style - for a puddled look, lower hardware height or use longer drapery panels. The inverse will allow them to hang just above the floor to deter dust. If using rings, account the panels hanging lower.

🪟Measure the height – Choose the longest length available in the style of your choosing that fits within your ceiling height to make your room feel taller and more expensive. Leave 2” from the ceiling so the rod can fit into the installed hardware.

🪟Measure Twice, Drill Once - Checking for studs, metal or electricity with a stud finder will allow you to avoid trouble by adjusting evenly on both sides before drilling.

🪟Install brackets – Use anchors supplied with the hardware if not drilling into studs.

🪟Hang rod and drapes – Attach panels and adjust pleats evenly.

🪟Style and steam – Steam or iron panels for a polished look!

Stop. Click. Decorate.

Imagine finding out you’re PREGNANT within a month of quitting your job to commit to your business!!

You guys I was depressed, sick, and even in denial a bit. During what’s usually a peaceful time, I felt like I was fighting for my future.

I worked all day and night, imposter syndrome had me in a chokehold, I even had to be induced almost a month early due to preeclampsia and a likelihood of stroke.

My husband and his brother lead our team while I was in the hospital. My parents cared for our dog at home between visits to me, while I was on my laptop and IVs keeping projects going and reassuring clients who kindly trusted this very pregnant woman to finish their spaces.

2 weeks after an emergency C section I was back on site, even while experiencing heavy bleeding complications for 11 months after birth.

My family, God, and the strength of the women who’ve come before me were all that got me through, as I fought to bring our beautiful son and a successful business into the world at the same time.

The same dedication, grit, and integrity that guided us then is still the fabric of this business today as I continue transforming spaces all while being my 2 year old son’s daily childcare (pray for me and my little intern 🙏🏽😂)

Everyone has a story, everyone deserves rest and validation, and that’s why I pour my heart into each space I’m blessed to take on.

Can you relate? Was there ever a time you felt you wouldn’t make it? Does having a soft spot to land at home help you get through? Let me know in the comments below!

✨ STOP YOUR SCROLL. Here’s the easiest way to furnish a beautiful, functional home—without breaking the bank. 💸
No more endless searching or guesswork—just tap to shop your dream space.

Designing a room is more than picking colors and furniture—it’s about creating a space that feels like love. For this teen, it meant bright colors in a way that feels just a little grown💅🏽 a cozy spot to study or chill with friends🩷 and decor that reflects who she is.🤎💙

Summer’s on its way and has us thinking about concepts from a previous project.

#ThrowbackThursday (millennials over here, we don’t care if we’re not doing that anymore!) to these moody moodboards we’d love to live in.

POV: You walk into your home and finally feel at peace.
This is your sign to stop settling for a space that drains you.

🛒 GET THRIFTY - thrift your home first, what special objects or photos tell a story with color, texture, shape or sentimental value? Then hit the thrift store for items that fill it out.

📚 GET BOOKS - peek under those jackets for cloth, leather, & gilded covers that fit the vibe of your room or pop against your shelves

🖼️ GO BIG - find large colorful vases, glassware, candle sticks, sculpture, anything that will increase the presence of your shelving instead of lots of small pieces that feel cluttered.

🪴 GET BUSY - make a cup of tea and take your time! Think about what objects group together well first. Then, arrange those groups! Way simpler than thinking of it as 20 random pieces.

👋🏽 GET HELP - book a Q&A with your favorite virtual designer if you’re feeling stuck☺️

🔊 Some ASMR from our little amateur garden! This was our first year of growing from seeds🤯 swipe to see where it started for us on a 3rd story balcony in our first apartment☺️

we’re hopeful for this year’s jalapeños, sweet peppers, potatoes, cucumber, cantaloupe, watermelon, basil, tomatoes, rosemary, cilantro, and our salad greens have taken off too.

Now don’t be surprised if this North Carolina heat hits and it’s all crispy by mid-July😬 we’ll do our best lol.

After a month+ of late nights, research, and crashing software, you can breeze through this open house in 45 seconds😉

This was our first full home 3D model— that being said we’re happy with the results but excited to continue to improve.❤️

Fun fact, much of the artwork is from our guest curated collection for @sageandroseprints ! Take a closer look with the link in our bio.

Your space may feel worse on the way to getting better in the process of transformation.💖 Taking apart what used to be, deep cleaning, rearranging, assembling, can all be pretty daunting without professional guidance or a clear end in sight.

Let us do the hard work on your behalf.

From style exploration to the final touches, both virtually and in person, creating special spaces for wonderful people is what we do💖

Don’t tell Mike I’m sharing this😆

In 2019 we attended a “Picasso Style” #PaintAndSip, I think his portrait of me came out better because of the sip part 😂😂 it makes me sooo happy because am I really this beautiful cross between #Jigsaw and the #Grinch? Y’all peep the sparkle in my eyes?? Definitely outdid me. He’s been asking to paint me again for 6 years but why when this is my favorite piece in our whole home?? (even though without the “sip” he IS a phenomenal artist)

It just reminds me how there for us he is. He’s invested so much heart, skill, and effort behind the scenes to ensure Patina Novum thrives, and somehow keeps us laughing despite stress, exhaustion, or pressure.

I say all this to say that your home has to be filled with things that make you happy, not just what is conventionally acceptable. These pieces are over our bed, and now my two year old greets them as mama and dada (clearly the resemblance is there) and they fit perfectly into the vibe of our sweet little rental home (even the yellow walls and brown carpet 😀)

If YOU need help making sure #YourHome reflects the moments and memories that give you joy, you know who to call 😉

My first visit to #HighPointMarket in college validated something in me that grew into my love for interior design today. @lioramanne helped make it all possible by hosting us, it was so great to reconnect this trip 🥰

Other notable stops this time include @fourhandsfurniture @suryasocial @moeshome

This Studio exists in part to defy the perception that wealth or class should solely determine a person’s quality of life.

Oftentimes, people who work and sacrifice the most feel guilty or unable to invest in their own well-being, and are least likely to feel welcome in spaces where relevant knowledge or access is shared.

We look forward to creating a new space that transcends these outdated norms, where luxury is in the experience, not the price tag.

Follow along for cost-saving DIYs, thrifting and organizational tips, free e-designs, and inspiration 💖✨

Introducing our Free EDesign Series, featuring timeless designer-curated spaces✨

Support small businesses by purchasing from our guest curated art collection for @sageandroseprints as well as artwork and textiles by @meredithalbeeart and @makenadecor — but catch these pieces before they sell out!

Whether one piece speaks to you or the whole board, enjoy styling your space on your time and at a great price point.

Time flies when you're virtually staging homes!! I really miss y'all and wanted to share some drafts of one of the projects I'm working on.

We're building a sweet 3 bed 2 bath bungalow in Dunn, NC featuring thoughtful finishes at a modest price point for the ideal starter home. This is one of 3 homes I'm currently curating selections for and staging, but the only one being staged virtually!

So far I've built a 3D model to scale, am importing the finishes and features from the final design for the home, and am filling it with furnishings and decor to give interested buyers a sense of what to expect. Once the space feels complete, I'm moving the entire model into a separate program to export life-like images of the space along with a virtual tour!

I'm also working on a few bedrooms, a lounge, and a pool deck, branding for a recovery and counselling center, graphics for a candle company, office and storage updates for my medspa, and heading to Carolina Beach this weekend for a conference. 🫠

I'm also beyond excited to have a curated art collection with @sageandroseprints and even featured a piece in this listing😉 In the coming weeks I'll be sharing more free curated design boards featuring Sage & Rose Prints that highlights decor and home goods from other small businesses.

I always say "I'm slowing down this quarter to focus on social media" AND I'M LYING TO MYSELF😂

I will do my bessssst to share some of the other exciting things going on this way very soon! ❤️

Tips for kids rooms:

🩷 Flexible storage promotes tidy habits without being restrictive
🩵 Ground with neutrals, and vary the color for a more curated look that can mature as needed
💜 Allow their interests to grow and evolve by mixing in quality low-cost decor pieces that can be swapped in a few years time
🩷 Consider how they spend their time; reading, being with friends, homework, and quality rest
🩵 you can introduce color without committing to paint with temporary wall paper and wall art
💜 lots of layered ambient light offers a safe coziness for little ones who struggle with bedtime

Loved this virtual project for a family I've adored and designed for for years🩷 Their youngest daughter is precious, but has been sleeping in her parents room because she didn't feel comfortable in her own. Now she has a space she doesn't want to leave!

💌 DM us with interest in our design services, and follow for more tips, inspiration, and free edesigns💌.

BLK MKT Vintage @blkmktvintage isn’t a book you rush through—it’s the kind you return to in small moments throughout your week, letting each collection and story inspire you. As an interior designer, I love how it validates my passion for curating meaningful objects in my own home, and the way I guide my clients to do the same.

@officialspikelee 's foreword is a thought-provoking, sometimes funny, and always powerful reminder of the importance of preserving these treasures to highlight crucial messages from our past—messages that words alone can’t convey. Jannah and Kiyanna have crafted a gorgeous piece that will elevate both your home and your perspective. Get your copy from the link in my bio!

Phase 1 of this project has been a covered screened in porch overlooking the future site of a gorgeous custom pool on its way to completion early next spring.

Inspired by the concept of conversation pits, I wanted to rededicate this space to late night conversations around the fire, a destination for serenity, regardless of the time of day or even the weather. Their previous set up worked well for a morning coffee, but we knew this space could be so much more.

Initially we thought about bringing in lush jeweltones against a darker palette to lean into the moodiness of an evening escape, when they're most able to enjoy themselves, but later opted for a neutral, high contrast palette allowing the colorful landscaping of the backyard to sing without competition.

#BeforeAfter #InteriorDesign #HomeMakeover #ConversationPit

We do what we do for the same reasons!

I'm a mom to a one year old, for instance. I love him dearly but there isn't a day he isn't grabbing at an earring or necklace😂 I also work with my hands and need to be careful about getting caught. You end up wearing less jewelry, and feeling a little less put together in the process. This permanent bracelet is a new little confidence boost while also being one less thing to worry about💅🏽✨️

Design does the same for people -- having a space that feels better organized, that suits your physical and emotional needs, that validates your best qualities, enhances your social life and boosts your confidence will energize other areas in your life and lift a bit of worry away.

It doesn't have to be drastic or expensive, a conversation is always a great start. 💖

COMMENT "BABY" and I'll send you this complete design!

& remember, once upon a time, Lil Baby didn't have Lil Baby's budget!🫶🏽 I don't believe that you have to be wealthy to enjoy a space that makes you feel good about yourself💖 Not to mention, wealthy clients also appreciate quality pieces at a variety of price points, because who enjoys throwing away money?😉

Comment who's space we should try next!👀

📋Tips for Making it Your Own:

👆🏽once you download the design, you can literally 'click-and-buy' by tapping the items and going directly to their pages

🖼click the Inspiration images at the top to view the original project, designer and pieces!

💡none of the lighting needs professional installation, extra renter and budget friendly

⭐️double check reviews for your specific concerns (ease of assembly, etc)

🛒you can shop locally with these pieces as inspiration!

☎️you can still consult with a designer (me!) to further personalize the idea

Created for a client moving for a major opportunity, who lived alone and needed a space to help him adjust to a #NewCity 🛩🏙 He shared how he missed the warmth of his family's homes growing up. Borrowing from vintage silhouettes and color palettes, we created a space that feels both masculine and cozy, youthful and sophisticated, current and timeless.🖤🌿

His furnishings were carefully considered to support his hobbies and hosting, be it a game of #Spades at his dining table or #SundayNightFootball in his living room.
