Therese Borglund Santos
Founder and Lead Designer
Thereseâs journey has taken her across continents, from global financial hubs to design-forward cities. Through these experiences, she rekindled her lifelong passion for creating sanctuaries that balance functionality with a refined aesthetic. Her formative years in law and finance gave her a meticulous eye for detail and perfected her project management skills, while her travels instilled a love for diverse cultures and design traditions. At Sense & Solace, she merges these insights into a streamlined process that accommodates busy lifestyles while still delivering interiors imbued with warmth and individuality.
For Therese, design is an expression of lifeâs most meaningful elementsâa way to embrace oneâs heritage, celebrate personal style, and find solace in a world that often moves at lightning speed. By bridging her professional expertise with her creative vision, she ensures that every project is thoughtfully tailored to the clientâs needs, honouring both form and feeling in equal measure.
