When we founded Patina, all we knew was that the key to a good life was surrounding yourself with a community that embraced the idea that ‘a rising tide lifts all boats’, who valued experiences over things, and who knew what it meant to live in the moment and be fully present. Also tacos, tacos are key.

We’ve won some pretty cool awards, both nationally, and internationally. While we feel incredibly honoured, we don’t see awards as an end point; instead, we love how they have opened doors and opportunities to meet some incredibly talented people, and how they’ve inspired trust from our couples to make work we believe in.
