An ethics-forward interior design studio that marries quiet luxury with timeless practicality.
Studio VAE is a full-service interior design studio serving the San Francisco Bay Area and led by our talented Principal Designers, Veronica Jurist and Aggie Revane.
We offer clients our 40+ years of experience in high-end hospitality, residential design, and interior architecture, along with a steadfast belief: luxury isn’t a number or an aesthetic.
Luxury is found in quality materials that endure time and age beautifully. It’s found in every space feeling rich with meaningful purpose—the painting that whispers of your travels, the sofa that cocoons you and your family in comfort, the colors that inspire you to breathe deeply, gather close, or create more boldly.
At the heart of work is you. Renovating and furnishing isn’t only about creating a “look.” You want spaces that reflect your values and meaningfully impact the way you live.
That’s why every design decision we make for you is so meticulously thoughtful, designed to support your life in a way that is polished yet real, controlled yet freeing, perfect yet gloriously imperfect.
As we all are.
Because when you live in a home that resonates with the most important facets of who you are and how you live, it lifts you up. You care more, connect more, and ultimately, live more.
A Versatile Team

Veronica Jurist is the Principal Designer and Co-Owner of Studio VAE, where her two decades of experience allow her to orchestrate every aspect of the design and renovation process for our distinguished clients.
With formal training at the Academy of Art and an early career with several large, renown luxury design firms, Veronica co-founded Studio VAE in her pursuit of spaces that forge a more meaningful connection with the people who call them home.
Her design approach and values are rooted in sustainability, storytelling, mindfulness, and personal growth—all of which are inspired by her own life. Growing up in the country, antiques stores and hundred-year-old shops whispered their stories to her. As an adult, travels through Asia and Europe unveiled another world bright with history and culture.
Veronica’s personal and professional experiences have resulted in a rich pool of design possibilities, one she loves dipping into to achieve our clients’ visions, to create homes that you feel deeply connected and supported. When not in the studio, she can be found exploring the Pacific Northwest with her husband and their adventure pup, Loki.

Aggie Revane is the Principal Designer and Co-Owner of Studio VAE. She is NCIDQ-certified, holds a Bachelor of Architecture from the California College of the Arts, and earned her chops at several prominent San Francisco design firms.
Born in Sacramento to a general contractor father, this Bay Area native has been immersed in architecture, construction, and interiors all her life. Her own professional portfolio spans hospitality, healthcare, workplace, and residential design, which allows her to design homes that are uniquely mindful, wellness-driven, and functional for our clients.
Like Veronica, Aggie shares a strong commitment to sustainability and environmental responsibility. Our clients especially love the ideas she shares for sourcing renewable materials, minimizing waste, and lowering energy consumption.
Outside of work, Aggie can be found cheering on Bay Area sports teams, relaxing with her two cats (Sleepy and Chula) at her Russian River cabin, or seeking inspiration in cities around the world, forever fascinated by how people live, work, and thrive.
