Spaces with history. Designed for living.
Your home should feel collected—not decorated.
At AJ’s Antique Revival, I create interiors that are warm, personal and full of character by blending antiques, handcrafted pieces and thoughtful design. Whether it’s transforming an unused corner into your favourite reading nook or reimagining an entire home, every space is designed to feel lived in, comfortable and uniquely yours.
What Makes This Different
Most interior designers begin with what’s trending.
I begin with what’s meaningful.
I believe the best homes aren’t built from matching furniture sets or chasing the latest style—they’re created through layers of history, craftsmanship and personal stories.
Every project begins by understanding how you live and accessing what we can use and rework. I don’t believe in the “everything’s gotta go” mentality. If we can re-work or repurpose it, then why not use what we’ve got. From there, I blend vintage finds, antiques, custom-built pieces and carefully selected furnishings to create spaces that feel timeless rather than temporary.
The goal isn’t perfection.
It’s comfort.
It’s character.
It’s creating a home you’ll love coming back to every day.

The Revival Philosophy
Every home deserves a story… but comfort comes first!
My spaces are layered, welcoming and designed to be lived in—not simply admired.
Reimagined Spaces
Sometimes all a home needs is a fresh perspective. An unused corner becomes a reading nook. A blank wall becomes functional storage. A forgotten room becomes your favourite place to spend time.
Vintage at the Heart
Antiques, reclaimed materials and vintage pieces bring warmth, soul and authenticity that new furniture simply can’t replicate.
Functional Beauty
Beautiful spaces should also work beautifully. Every layout, shelf and storage solution is designed around the way you actually live.

Brief: Client wanted cohesion in his small bachelor apartment. We changed the flow of the room, updated the furniture and repurposed pieces he already had. He wanted a vibe that represented his love of music and eclectic style. While keeping it masculine, we added some boho touches to keep the small space feeling light.
Process
How the Revival Begins
1 — Discover
We talk about your home, your lifestyle and what’s not working. We look at pieces from your home that you like, and what could be reworked.
2 — Imagine
I develop concepts, layouts and ideas that uncover the hidden potential of your space.
3 — Curate
Together we source antiques, vintage finds, furniture and custom-built pieces.
4 — Revive
Everything comes together into a finished space that’s warm, functional and unmistakably yours.
Homes should feel like they’ve been collected—not purchased all at once.
The most memorable interiors aren’t built overnight.
They’re layered with history, craftsmanship, meaningful objects and thoughtful design.
Whether we’re refreshing a single corner or transforming an entire home, my goal is always the same:
To create a space that feels warm, lived in and uniquely yours.
