Living is our greatest work—and design is how we honor it.

Studiolo is a newsletter on the practice of creating spaces worthy of who we are becoming.

Each week, we explore the intersection of interior design, material culture, and personal philosophy that transforms houses into laboratories of self-actualization. Each letter brings deeper inquiry into what makes a designed space feel transcendent, from the development of sophisticated taste to the practical frameworks that guide meaningful transformation.

A studiolo was the Renaissance mind’s private sanctuary—a space for contemplation and becoming. Consider this yours.

I’m Tenlie Mourning, a New York-based interior designer whose practice centers on material honesty and architectural precision. My work has been featured in Architectural Digest, Domino, and House Beautiful. My approach is informed by a degree in Architecture from Columbia University and experience founding Dendwell, a curated marketplace for vintage furniture.
