One of my favourite quotes: "Have nothing in your house that you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful" William Morris.

Not surprisingly the questions I'm often asked are:  "How does this work? How much will it cost?" And a fear often expressed; "Will you impose your taste on me?"  My role as your interior designer is to guide you through the options.  Ultimately the choices are yours.

Firstly I will call for an obligation free assessment. I will listen, observe and access your needs. From this conversation I compile a 'loose concept scheme'. As an independent designer I source far and wide for your project alone so you can be assured of a unique bespoke look.

Once these ideas have been discussed, honed and budget agreed - the next stage is overseeing the manufacture of competitively priced furniture. I supply and manufacture curtains, blinds and reupholster furniture using the best workrooms and I source directly from the manufacturer or importer. Liaison with contactors and other suppliers to make sure your job runs smoothly is a key  part of the process. All work is guaranteed.

As to my design fee, the good news is that a design scheme to make the best of your home doesn't have to cost the earth. I believe in making interior design accessible so strive to produce a quality product within budget. My typical fee for putting together colour, flooring kitchen, bathroom finishes, lighting, wallpaper options, accessories, through to art and rugs typically ranges from $800 to $1200.

I'll take great pleasure discovering your style and dreams, working with you to turn these into practical versatile and unique design schemes for you to live in and enjoy.

I look forward to helping you achieve the look you want for your home.
