BRAND STORY
I create beautiful, considered design with feeling
I believe that any space can be made to look and feel amazing. My designs always play with a collage of colour, pattern and texture. It’s this combination of interesting and intriguing elements that deliver the transformative power of great design. I like spaces to tell a story and lift the imagination.
PORTFOLIO
Every room tells a story
The transformative power of colour, pattern and textures enable exciting, inspiring and tantalising interiors. From vibrant colour palettes and pattern, playing with perspective and proportion to carefully curated furnishings, I infuse every project with creativity and unexpected details, And I love the details. Details add the layers and layers add the interest. Oh and the best schemes don’t take themselves too seriously, the most memorable interiors have an element of fun!

Why should I hire an interior designer?Hiring an interior designer has become much more affordable and accessible than it used to be. And many of us are used to outsourcing things that we don’t have the time, experience or energy to do ourselves. Many people want to create a home they can feel proud of but are not sure where to start, or start but find the whole process overwhelming. That’s when it pays to work with a trusted professional to deliver a home that you absolutely love. Living in your home should be a fun, happy experience, with rooms that make you feel well and that you are proud to show others.

How do I choose the best interior designer for my project?Recommendations are important when it comes to bringing someone into your home, but also looking at a portfolio of their work and meeting in person to know that you are a good fit. As well as loving the previous designs of an interior designer, it is also really important to find someone that you feel comfortable with and someone with whom you can communicate openly. Some interiors projects can last for more than a year, so you need to feel comfortable and confident that you have found the best interior designer for you!

How much does an interior designer cost? (Or is there such thing as an affordable interior designer?)A lot has changed over recent years in the interior design industry. Whereas once people saw hiring interior designers as only for the rich and famous. This is simply not the case now. Affordable interior design is now much more commonplace. I provide really clear pricing for my packages. I have a fixed price for my 2-hour consultations, and for larger projects, I offer a free, no obligation visit to chat about your requirements, so that I can then price your project and send a fixed price quote for you to decide if you wish to go ahead. Remember as well, that hiring an interior designer should save you money overall. I ensure that you ‘buy well, buy once’. That means that we are investing in furniture that proportionally fits perfectly into your home and that lasts the test of time. I make sure that you don’t waste money on the wrong choices. And we only buy things you absolutely love!

Hiring an interior stylist?An interior styling service is great for people who have a room/rooms in their home that need ‘pulling together’. Perhaps people already have the larger pieces of furniture, and know what they like, but aren’t sure how to source the finishing touches, or don’t want to waste money on the wrong choices. Not everyone needs a full interior design service. Sometimes just moving furniture around, and introducing some new colour, bright new lamps, a rug, or eye-catching curtains is all you need to breathe fresh life into a space and really get it working for you. With my interior styling service, you can create great interiors from the comfort of your own home, with a friendly expert at hand to help you make the right choices. In just a 2-hour in-home visit, you’ll get paint colour choices, layout recommendations and a full sourced accessories shopping list of everything you need to transform a space of your choice. All you’ll need to do is place the orders online and then sit back and wait for your newly curated style to arrive.
