Our Team

FOUNDER | DESIGN DIRECTOR

Daniella developed her deep love for architecture and design as a young child, when she would opinionatedly assist her mother with renovation projects. As she grew older, Daniella’s passion for interior design only intensified and resulted in her founding Trove Interior Design with her mother, Gabrielle, in 1997.

Over the years, Daniella has honed her craft and built a reputation for excellence within the industry. Her knowledge, eye for detail, creative vision and flawless execution, sets her apart.

Sought after for her innovative ideas, practical approach and her unwavering drive to get the best result for her client, and with a large catalogue of stunning projects behind her, both in New Zealand and internationally, Daniella has solidified her position as a trusted and talented interior designer.

BUSINESS MANAGER

As the Business Manager for Trove Design, Brad oversees the logistical aspects of our design projects, managing budget and timeline, to ensure seamless execution.

With a focus on fostering exceptional client experiences, Brad works closely with our creative team to bring beautiful and functional spaces to life for our discerning clients.

To further enhance Trove’s design services, Brad also utilises cutting-edge LiDAR Matterport technology to create immersive 3D virtual tours of the properties we are working on. Through his expertise in 3D scanning and filming, our design team is provided with a valuable tool that lets us explore and interact with the space remotely. This innovation also allows us to collaborate with the client, architect, and contractors, more efficiently throughout the design process.
