McKenna & Co – A Story of Style, Practicality, and Personal Touch

Founded by Paul McKenna, McKenna & Co began with a simple but powerful idea: that style and visual impact shouldn’t cost a fortune.

With a background spanning decades in creative direction, operations, and client-focused services, Paul saw a gap in the market for affordable home and business makeovers—offered with honesty, flair, and a hands-on personal approach.

Starting out by helping friends and neighbours prepare their homes for sale, Paul quickly developed a reputation for delivering magical yet practical transformations—especially in the areas of interior styling, lighting, outdoor design, and space optimisation. His services naturally expanded to include hospitality spaces, where his eye for ambience and atmosphere helped cafés and restaurants attract more customers and elevate their brand.

Today, McKenna & Co proudly works across Melbourne and regional Victoria, offering a full range of services from:
Home styling and pre-sale makeovers
Café and hospitality upgrades
Outdoor and feature lighting
Security lighting and design consulting
Event styling and management for adult-focused gatherings

While the services have grown, the heart of the business remains the same: personal service, creative thinking, and delivering real value for every client.

Whether you’re preparing to sell, launching a venue, or hosting a special event, McKenna & Co is here to help you make a lasting impression.
