Bio
I am Penelope Rogers
I started my design career in the fashion industry, studying Haute Couture at Helen Lefeaux Inc. Working my way through the industry ranks. I established my first line of clothing in 1986 selling to retailers throughout Vancouver, during Expo 86.
I later established a line of high end ladies wear that was distributed throughout Western Canada.
I transitioning into interior design in 1991. When I moved with my former husband to "The land of the Unexpected" Papua New Guinea. I was appointed the senior design position with Total Concept in Lae, PNG's second largest city. Designing executive homes and corporate offices for Coca Cola, Price Waterhouse, Coopers and Lybrand, Rice Industries and the Australian Defense Force.
I took a sabbatical from interior design to raise my two beautiful children. During this time I completed extensive renovations to my home in Victoria's Uplands.
I formalized my education completing B.C.I.T's rigorous Interior Design Program, graduating with distinction in 2009. I then established my design firm of Concept to Completion Inc.
I am truly passionate about design and embrace beauty whether it be man made, nature or human kind.
I hope you will enjoy following me in this little journey called life.
