Meet Our Founders

Get to know the visionaries behind setupfitdoor and our commitment to organic, natural interior dГ©cor.

Our Story

setupfitdoor was born from a shared passion for design that respects and celebrates the natural world. What began as conversations between two friends about the disconnect between modern interiors and nature has grown into a beloved source for organic dГ©cor that bridges that gap.

Olivia Bennett

Creative Director & Co-Founder

With a background in textile design and sustainable materials research, Olivia brings both artistic vision and environmental expertise to setupfitdoor. Her travels through rural communities in Australia and Southeast Asia have deeply influenced her design philosophy, which centers on honoring traditional craftsmanship while embracing contemporary aesthetics.

"I believe that the objects we surround ourselves with should tell a story—not just of beauty, but of respect for the earth and the hands that created them. When we connect with the natural origins of our belongings, we create homes that nurture both body and spirit."

Marcus Chen

Operations Director & Co-Founder

Before co-founding setupfitdoor, Marcus worked in sustainable supply chain management for major Australian retailers. His expertise in ethical sourcing and producer relationships ensures that every item in our collection not only meets our aesthetic standards but upholds our commitment to environmental and social responsibility.

"The beauty of what we create extends beyond what you can see—it includes the entire journey from material to finished piece. By working directly with artisans and prioritizing sustainable practices, we're creating décor with integrity at every stage."

Our Values

These principles guide everything we do at setupfitdoor:

Environmental Consciousness

We make decisions with the planet in mind, from the materials we select to our packaging and shipping methods. Our goal is to create beautiful products that tread lightly on the earth.

Artisanal Excellence

We celebrate the human touch in an increasingly automated world. By working with skilled craftspeople, we preserve traditional techniques while creating contemporary pieces that can't be mass-produced.

Transparent Sourcing

We believe you deserve to know where your dГ©cor comes from. We maintain close relationships with our suppliers and artisans, ensuring fair practices throughout our supply chain.

Holistic Design

Our approach considers how each piece affects the overall feeling of a space—not just visually, but in terms of energy flow, tactile experience, and connection to nature.
