Trained at the world-renowned Inchbald School of Design, and with years of experience with a top-100 interior designer, I’ve developed my own approach to design.
I MAKE INTERIOR DESIGN FUN
My approach to interior design means you’ll actually enjoy the creative process, without feeling overwhelmed. And I’m excellent at guiding couples to reach a consensus — skillfully mediating their differing tastes and preferences to ensure balance.
DISCOVERING YOUR STYLE
A great design starts with listening. I take the time to understand your family’s lifestyle, tastes, and the things you love — all the elements that help to define your unique, personal style. Together, we’ll explore colour, texture, materials, and shapes. The result? A thoughtful design brief that you’ll love, and a home that feels like you.
A PERSONAL DESIGN EXPERIENCE
You’ll always work directly with me — from the very first sketches to the excitement of the final reveal. I guarantee bespoke designs, outstanding quality, and my reassuring attention to detail. This personal approach ensures your style and tastes are central to every decision I make. I manage the whole design project for you, and because I don’t employ a big team, you’ll find my overheads are much lower too.
SOMETHING DIFFERENT
A home isn’t about design fads and trends — it’s a feeling. Every fabric, rug, or picture should have a reason for being, earning its place in your home. I create my interior designs with care and individuality. I tap into my network of exceptional designers to commission bespoke furniture, handpick fabrics and one-of-a-kind accessories, and other pieces that you won’t find anywhere else. Imagine an effortlessly eclectic mix of beautiful new brands and finds, sitting seamlessly alongside your own existing pieces.
TRADE DISCOUNTS & MY LITTLE BLACK BOOK
I always pass my generous trade discounts on to you, and you’ll often find the money you save will cover my design fees. I also only work with trusted suppliers and craftsmen from my carefully curated Little Black Book — the very best names in London.
