So when you decide you need a home update, enlisting the help of an Interior Designer or Stylist could feel a little daunting. Will they force to you have something you don’t like? Will it end up costing too much money? Are they silently judging your choices? Do you want to invite them into your home, after all its personal, right?

1) Give you confidence in your choices

Our goal is collaborate and help you refine your choices while creating a space you will cherish.

If however you are really unsure and don’t know what you want, that’s ok too. We will help you to discover how you want to feel in your room (which is a big factor in the design) as well as all your needs from colour scheme, to furniture to layout.

2) Save You Time (& your sanity)

An Interior Designer and Stylist can definitely save you time. Casting an expert eye over your home to create designs that suit your tase, needs and budget. We enjoy working out room challenges and giving you the best solutions.

An Interior Designer and Stylist will not only save money through budgeting, trade discounts and expert decisions, but can also add value to your home. While this is a luxury, a professional will help you avoid expensive errors which is invaluable. If a home has been curated with an expert eye (from space saving solutions to colour schemes to fixtures and fittings) it will be more desirable to potential buyers, which is always a plus.

4) Trained Eye

An Interior Designer will bring a wealth of knowledge and resources. We look at the finer details from the architecture of your house to layouts and space planning. We guide you on how to use your existing furniture and advise you on how to make your home feel the way you want it to feel. We can articulate creative and practical ideas especially with other trades (this may include moving walls, doors and windows, bespoke furniture). We design and create lighting and electrical layouts for refurbishment and new-build projects. And can also oversee and project manage projects from start to finish.

5) Unique Ideas
