About TPP

About

Cheers to a warm welcome home! From interior styling moments and plant parenting support to lifestyle behind-the-scenes, The Plant Penthouse is your residence for a vibrantly styled life.

 

TPP is a place where life is enjoyed, not endured, so stay a while won't ya?

 

And of course, the Penthouse experience would not be complete without a trusted concierge, now would it? So allow me to introduce myself:

​

My name is Shayla Owodunni, the concierge behind the scenes during your stays at The Plant Penthouse (which I hope are often!).

 

Ever since my days as a boisterous kindergartner demanding to wear neon knee-highs with printed dresses, styling has been a facet of my life that brings joy beyond words. Somewhere along my journey to matching, interior styling and a passion for plant care weaved their way into my life fabric and there has been no looking back.

 

Decorating is part science, part art, and I'm here to help you take the elevator straight to the top of your styling game. So take a big breathe in, and enjoy the view.

 

Let's make your space a happy place, together. <3
