THE FOUNDERS

Julie Mansfield

With a twenty year career in fashion, art direction and visual consulting - creating a visual narrative is what I do. Whether for magazine pages, brand campaigns, press events or retail environments… what it looks like is my thing! 

My approach to styling your space is no different to styling for a shoot or event … details matter! 
I care about the small things as much as the bigger picture, how an image or an environment make you feel is key. Editorial images or real life spaces need to make you ‘feel’ something - to feed your imagination.

Moving into the interior world has been a gradual but natural process - starting Kettle was an exciting opportunity to fill a clear gap in the ‘home staging’ world. Our interiors are modern in feel but never cold, corporate or void of personality. We style your property with warmth and charm, nothing too showy, no fruit in bowls, just simple curated stylish spaces.Times are indeed changing and we aim to reflect that in our fresh approach to preparing your space for sale. Striking an instant chord with a potential buyer is key, let’s get moving!

Jason O’Mara

I have worked in the creative industry for thirty years both running my own award winning agency and freelancing across major agencies. In my role as art director and creative director I have worked with brands both big and small, helping them to grow their visual appeal and create audience aspiration. Working with a broad spectrum of clients across many sectors ranging from Harrods to English National Opera and Crombie to Designers Guild, my objective is always about ‘defining clarity’ with the aim to engage clearly and quickly and forge lasting connections with the target audience.

My work in recent years has expanded into the interior world, allowing me to take a 360° approach to clients’ brand image, designing work spaces and private homes has been a natural extension of what I do.

Being a founder member of Kettle, is an opportunity to work with a great team, to raise the bar in the world of home staging, delivering a clear vision to the buyer and creating that all important connection with a crafted space, allowing for a quicker sale at a premium price. Let’s get the Kettle on!
