Toni’s career has been an adventure in shifting, diversifying, networking, and staying open to any possibilities. From starting as a secretary, moving through advertising, production and casting, to running her own production company for many years, each chapter built toward something more meaningful.

That led to Toni+Co. An interior design, decorating and styling studio grounded in truly understanding clients (their needs, their lives, their budgets; the whole picture!) to create spaces that not only work and are beautiful, but genuinely improve how people live.

One of Toni’s driving forces has always been to say yes and work out the details later. Knocking on doors, leaning on her network, and learning from every experience; she’s a real powerhouse, and her story is a reminder of where backing yourself and saying yes can lead!

Get to know the Brownbill Effect

For 25 years, Heidi has worked at the crossroads of design, photography, and storytelling – crafting bold identities and narratives that connect people and ideas. With a curator’s eye and a storyteller’s instinct, Heidi transforms every project into a visual experience that resonates – blending strategy, design and purpose.

As a multidisciplinary designer, she craft brand identities, books, exhibitions, and experiences that inspire action. Her modern, minimalist approach uncovers the unique story behind each brand, drawing from years of publishing and curation to shape thoughtful, meaningful content.

Heidi has designed award-winning photo books, curated exhibitions for LensCulture at Aperture New York, Photo London, and Paris Photo, directed Photobook Melbourne – a festival that brought together over 7000 creative people and founded Unless You Will, one of the first online photography magazines celebrating global talent.

Every project starts with a story. And Heidi's role is to help bring it to life – with depth, integrity and a touch of rebellion.

Melissa started Collécte when she returned from living in the U.S (in 2017). She was helping my sister try and sell some pieces of really nice designer lighting and furniture and there was no where to sell these pieces other than Ebay, Gumtree or the Auction houses.

Coming off living in Washington D.C and working in a High end furniture marketplace with experience as working as an interior decorator there was an obvious hole in the market with no where to sell these pieces. So she decided to take the plunge and start Collécte.

Mellissa's goal at Collécte is to provide an easy, seamless way to buy and sell pre-owned furniture and accessories.

As more people look for sustainable and environmentally conscious ways to shop, pre-owned pieces are gaining in popularity. They offer not only economic value but also reduce waste and environmental impact.

Collécte have made buying and selling second hand furniture more accessible to a broader audience.
