ABOUT
Oldani & Santiago is a Napa Valley–based design couple that began with a simple question the pair asked when they first moved in together: how will our styles come together?
That question continues to shape their work. Each project is an exercise in alignment—they have developed a skill for attuning their individual styles and talents to better understand how spatial
arrangements and crafted objects can support human activity and evoke a sense of synergy within an environment. The result is work that feels deeply personal, considered, and alive.
They design spaces and custom pieces with a focus on natural materials, craftsmanship, and thoughtful spatial flow. Style is considered from the beginning—their talent lies in harmonizing it with function and use, so the final result feels cohesive rather than assembled; built, not bought. The work carries a clear point of view:
refined, authentic, and original.
The outcome is environments that feel as good as they look, leaving a lasting, positive impression on those who move through them.
Brooklyn Santiago
I am a designer and creative director with an innate ability to translate personal aesthetic into physical space. With a decades-long foundation in the beauty industry, I developed my approach through years of close client work listening, interpreting, and translating individual preferences into a polished, cohesive expression of personal style. This experience shaped my ability to understand what people are drawn to, often beyond what they can fully articulate.
Today, I apply this perspective across design, retail staging and styling, home editing projects, event styling, and photographic art direction bringing thoughtful editing and a refined point of view to each.
Luigi Oldani
My path as a creator began early, accompanying my father—an artist and builder himself—on construction sites. I grew up watching raw materials transform into spaces and art through the hands of craftsmen.
This inspired me to earn a mechanical engineering degree from UC Berkeley and to found my own design and fabrication studio.
Working with natural elements, my passion for expressive craftsmanship, and a reverence for the artist’s ability to evoke emotion through medium are the driving forces behind my work.
