About Me.
Hi, I'm Jenna Johanknecht! I am a recent graduate from U.W. Stevens Point with a Bachelor's degree in Interior Architecture. I am from Waupaca, WI. From being this little girl watching HGTV every Sunday afternoon to now learning the techniques to design a timeless space, it truly is a dream come true. Throughout my journey, I've gained a passion for commercial design.
In my eyes, there is something about designing a space that tells me I am about to go on an adventure and my sleeves better be rolled up. Everyone knows the saying a picture is worth a thousand words, but an empty room is an unimaginable canvas.
Design Philosophy
Design reflects human connection, storytelling, and function. My approach as a designer is driven by a desire to create meaningful, thoughtful experiences that balance aesthetics with purpose. I believe when designing for clients you must first understand their needs, desires, and challenges. Each project presents an opportunity to craft solutions that are not only visually compelling but also intuitively functional and enduring.
​
I am inspired by the stories of clients. Design is a collaborative process, where every stakeholder has a voice, and where those voices influence the direction and outcome of the project. I strive to create designs that feel timeless yet innovative. Focusing on clean lines, efficient use of space, and a mindful choice of materials has an impact on the environment and the future.
​
Ultimately, my goal is to make designs that elevate everyday experiences, evoke a sense of calm, and enhance the connection between people and their surroundings.
