A Little Bit About Me…

 

My love for interior design began while working at Habitat in Bristol, where I was part of the shop floor team, assisting with displays and styling. It was during this time that I discovered the joy of transforming spaces to create beauty and harmony.  

Later, while traveling and eventually settling in Sydney, Australia, I often visited a friend living in a charming old townhouse in the leafy district of Woollahra. The elegant architecture, thoughtful use of space, and clever design left a lasting impression on me. This experience deepened my fascination with interiors and sparked a passion for observing and studying the character of people's homes.  

Upon returning home, I completed small renovation projects and helped friends recover from decorating mishaps, which gave me the confidence to pursue formal training. I enrolled at the National Design Academy, earning a diploma in Professional Interior Design, and later graduated from the Interior Design Business School.  I have also studied The Advanced Guide to Interior Design at the Create Academy in 2024.

Today, my designs are inspired by the natural beauty of the North Devon coastline where I live, my travels across Europe, and my enduring love for art and design. Each project reflects my belief that interiors should evoke a sense of mindfulness, joy, and peace.  

For me, the most important aspect of every project is ensuring my clients are happy. I love involving them in the design process as much or as little as they prefer, ultimately leaving them with a space that is restful, meaningful, and beautifully crafted to suit their lifestyle.
