About

Hi, I’m Somayya

I’ve always loved beautiful things,  beautiful spaces, good style and those little details that make everyday life feel a bit more special.

But I’ve also always been a believer in getting the look without paying the price.

My own career has taken me through education, recruitment and marketing, but I’ve always had a creative side and a love for discovering ideas, inspiration and ways to make things feel a little more elevated.

That’s what inspired The Founderess.

I wanted to create a place where women could come for inspiration, discover affordable ways to make their homes and lifestyles feel more luxurious, and find practical guides that make it easier to actually put those ideas into practice.

The Founderess is my little corner of the internet for beautiful ideas, clever finds and affordable luxury.

And if you love a beautiful home, a good bargain and making something look far more expensive than it actually was…

I think you’re going to feel right at home here. ♡
