Hi There, I’m Lisa Welcome to Born & Bred Studio!
Lisa, Founder and Creative Director
Beautifully Designed Homes, Without the Overwhelm
Born & Bred Studio was founded by Lisa Mettis, a true Londoner with a first-class degree from Central Saint Martins and a former career in fashion. Her years working with top British retailers sharpened her instinct for style, detail and trend forecasting, skills she now brings into every interior project.
Today, Lisa and the Born & Bred team brings that same trained eye and deep intuition to every project, creating homes that are refined, tailored, and genuinely liveable.
What sets us apart:
Our clients are time-poor but have high standards. They want their homes to feel calm, elegant and considered, and they want a professional who can lead the process, not just decorate rooms. That’s exactly what we do. We take care of the details, prevent costly mishaps, and bring together trusted trades, thoughtful design and seamless communication. It’s a down-to-earth, collaborative approach built on trust, clarity and experience.
Our work has been featured in The New York Times and Living ETC, and we’ve received 10 consecutive Houzz awards for outstanding service. But more importantly, our clients come away with homes that feel like a true reflection of who they are and how they live.
Why Choose Us:
At Born & Bred Studio, we believe a well-designed home is a powerful thing. It supports your lifestyle, lifts your day-to-day, and creates a backdrop for the moments that matter most.
No two clients are the same, and our designs reflect that. Whether you're redesigning a family home or planning a full renovation, we tailor the process to your needs while guiding you every step of the way.
We save you time, energy and costly missteps by co-ordinating the process with clarity and experience. From streamlining decisions to recommending trusted tradespeople, we remove the overwhelm so you don’t have to manage it all yourself.
Investing in your home is an investment in your well-being. Our goal is to make that feel not only worthwhile, but transformative. With the right guidance, your dream home is closer than you think.
It’s not just about making a space look beautiful, it’s about making your home feel like it finally fits.
Every Project Starts With a Consultation
Our paid design consultation is the essential first step. It’s a focused, working session where we explore your goals, your space, and how best to move forward.
From there, we shape a plan around your needs, whether that’s a full-scale renovation or a complete home furnishing.
This is your entry point to a smoother, more guided experience, and a home that finally lives up to its potential.
