Allowing you to express your style is extremely important. I want to design a space that reflects your personality, not mine.

Working closely with you, I'll outline your scope of works, get a sense the design direction and go from there.

Do you have trouble making decisions? Let me offer you some curated suggestions, based on what you like and I can help you choose. Not before chatting to you about how things age, date or wear, of course. I want my clients to be empowered with all the information they need to live happily in their spaces.

After all, it’s you who will be living there, not me!

I value each client and their individual tastes and personality. The best thing about my job is that each project is different and I find it exciting to work with any style or personality.

Engaging the Interior Designer early in the schematic planning stage is key to the best interior outcome, providing you with the best aesthetic and functional space.

What does an Interior Designer do?

If you’re renovating, we won’t hesitate moving walls or entirely gutting an interior if it means improving the function and overall aesthetics of the space. We will prepare plans, drawings and renders. If it’s a new build, we will often work with your architect from the beginning of the project.

Interior Designers focus on not just creating aesthetically pleasing spaces but also highly functional rooms, considering all elements such as light, acoustics, accessibility, materials and structural considerations. We also style the home to reflect the resident’s personality and needs, focusing on elements such as paint colours, floor coverings, furniture and fabrics. We work with you to design your bespoke kitchen, bathroom, fireplace or joinery. The list is endless

In the end, it's the little things that make the biggest difference, like whether the tiles line up properly, where the power points live and how many there are, choosing practical materials- like stone, understanding where the windows need to be and where the plumbing gets set out.

When tiny details are expertly thought out, they can entirely change how you use a space.
