ABOUT DESIGNER LYNDA LEE
"I have thoroughly enjoyed a career focused on creating award winning marketing, and now that I'm semi retired down in Devon in the UK, it's time to connect with, and unleash my abstract artist within. Wish me luck! But just know, I will never give up web design or home-staging, it's who I am."

LYNDA LEE
Lynda started her working career in the ANZ Bank in Hawkes Bay New Zealand, then along with her husband travelled and worked in the UK for 6 months, and once her three children were at school, Lynda created NZ's first farm based rural employment agency, specialising in farm management positions.
Within three years Central Employment had grown to 3 branches at which point Lynda sold the business and along with her husband and three children moved North to Cambridge New Zealand, where Lynda sold real estate on and off for a number of years.
Lynda fulfilled a bucket list dream, and created her first retail store in the early 90's, which sold after only being open for 5 months! With the sale proceeds Lynda then went on to import Dutch Colonial furniture and objects of art, which she retailed from her newly created and opened designer store, VIRTUS in Cambridge. Focusing on interior design and home staging for clients.
Early 2000 while living in Europe Lynda discovered her love of computers. Combined with her passion for architecture, design and marketing, she attended Farnham Art & Design University in the South of England, where quickly her intuitive skills for presentation shone through, and Dezign Scene magazine was born and created to present her course assignments.
Lynda returned to the Waikato in 2005 from the UK to become a grandmother, registered Dezignscene Ltd and worked from home designing and building websites for clients throughout New Zealand, whilst also operating her Bed and Breakfast.
In 2013 Lynda had a calling to go back to real estate, this time in Hamilton, and the timing could not have been more perfect. Lynda listed, marketed and sold property throughout the boom until 2022, and over this time was awarded many sales and marketing awards. Lynda provided her interior design and home-staging skills to all clients prior to the photographers arrival, and every property sold for record prices. Lynda's motto, "Must be a win win for all."
Covid changed everything, so Lynda then embarked on travelling around New Zealand in her 7.5m Burstner motorhome with Louis her cat for the next 3 years. Then last year being February 2025, a friend from the UK holidayed out to New Zealand to venture around with Lynda in her motorhome ... this journey had a profound effect on Lynda, and sparked her long held desire to return again to the country of her fathers roots, England, and in particular Devon.
"Now's the time to combine and continue all of my passions; property, business, interior design, web design, art & design in general, and, the long held-back unleashing of my abstract artist within. Exciting times ahead." Lynda Lee
