''I have made some mistakes that I now live with'' a homeowner said to me recently. Interior Design isn’t decoration—it’s strategy in disguise! I get it, design services inherently is a luxury, perhaps—a “nice to have” once everything else is sorted. But here’s the truth: thoughtful design is the starting point, not the afterthought. It defines how a space looks and how it lives. And here’s the thing (and I say this with love): Money alone can not buy taste. That’s where a qualified interior designer brings immeasurable value. I have tried to narrow this down to 7 key points - really because it's my favourite number 1️⃣ You don't need more stuff, you need a smarter space. Getting the layout right is essential, a smarter space works with your lifestyle (home) or business needs (office projects) and not against it. When layouts are planned, every inch serves a purpose, pieces belong and overall flow enhances how you live, work and relax 2️⃣ Fewer Costly Mistakes – we can help manage the hundreds (yes hundreds) of decisions so you don’t have to. Example, picking out a countertop alone has at least 7 big decisions -read more on our website 3️⃣ Perfect Scale & Detail – we can ensure architectural elements and furniture items fits cohesively, from layouts to lighting. I cannot stress enough that it is about scale and proportions. 4️⃣ A Space That Reflects You – Not a pinterest copy, but an interior that tells your story. 5️⃣ Design That Goes Beyond Aesthetics – we consider light, flow, materiality, function, meaning—and your lifestyle. 6️⃣ Boost Property Value – strategic design helps property sell faster and at a higher value. 7️⃣ Access to Trusted Resources – we can help source quality pieces at different budgets from responsible manufacturers. For those wanting more bespoke, we have designed and collaborated with local and global craftspeople to create timeless pieces that last and can be past on to generations to come. Design is not just about what you see—it’s about how it makes you feel, live, and thrive. If you’re considering a project, I'd be delighted to explore how we can work together.
