Tehilla Bennett
OWNER & PRINCIPAL DESIGNER
Our founder and principal designer, Tehilla Bennett, the heart and soul of Teela Bennett Design oversees our squad with a keen eye for detail and a deep understanding of how spaces can influence emotions and experiences.
Before launching her design firm in 2018, she spent time as a NICU nurse and studied interior design online at NYSAD. These experiences gave her a deep understanding of how spaces need to function for their lifestyle.
As a proud mom herself, Tehilla knows that a home needs to be more than just aesthetically pleasing. It should also be a place that provides comfort, functionality, and respite from the stresses of everyday life. This philosophy guides her as she works closely with her clients to create custom designs that reflect their individual style and meet their specific needs.
Her Bachelor's degree in psychology and her nursing background serve her well in this regard. They help her understand her clients on a deeper level, allowing her to design spaces that are not just beautiful, but also truly feel like home. Whether she's designing for her own young family, friends, neighbors, or clients, Tehilla approaches each project with both her head and heart.
Tehilla's dedication to quality extends far beyond the design process itself. She stays on top of current trends and keeps herself updated with the latest products on the market. This commitment ensures that her clients always have access to the best and most relevant design elements available. Tehilla personally guarantees the quality of Teela Bennett's vendors' offerings. She frequently visits showrooms and design industry markets across the country, ensuring that every piece of furniture, every finish, and every décor item lives up to her standards.
Today, she leads Teela Bennett Design from its Beachwood, Ohio base, creating tasteful and well-designed spaces that her clients love to call home.

Follow your dreams no matter how long and winding the path may be-don't let anything hold you back.
Elana Pollack
DESIGNER
Immerse yourself in the world of design with our designer Elana Pollack. She loves blending passion and creativity to create interiors that tell stories. Elana's love for interior design is not a newfound interest. It's a lifelong passion!
Elana has always been captivated by the world of interior design. However, life had other plans, leading her down the path of raising four boys and a girl. During this time, she found inspiration in her mother-in-law, a seasoned interior designer whose work left a lasting impression on Elana.
Once her children embarked on their own educational pursuits, Elana took advantage of the opportunity to follow her passion for interior design. She was fortunate to join Tehilla’s team and together, they've been creating magic in homes in Cleveland and beyond!
Elana's design approach is very personal. She believes every space should reflect the unique personality and lifestyle of its people. Her designs are not just aesthetically pleasing but also practical, catering to the needs of a bustling family life – a trait no doubt influenced by her own experiences as a mother.
When she's not transforming spaces, Elana loves spending quality time with her family and traveling. Her adventures serve as a source of inspiration, enriching her design palette with diverse cultural and artistic influences.
