FAQs

What is included?

Me and my expertise for the duration of the project. This includes consultations, developing a style guide, specifying materials & finishes, and liaising with construction teams during the build. It may also include drawing up concept plans, furnishings and shopping trips too if you choose. After our initial chat, I’ll prepare a custom proposal with the recommended inclusions and everything you need to know about working together.  

How much will it cost? 

In short, it depends. Because each home is so unique in space and style the price will vary. The best thing to do is get in touch to discuss your project. I can often provide a rough price over the phone before preparing a custom proposal outlining fees and inclusions tailored to your goals.  

How long will we be working together? 

Depending on the size of the project it might be a couple of months to a couple of years! I pride myself on building long-standing and honest relationships with every client, so if I’m not the right fit, I’ll let you know from the start. 

Can I work with you on just one room in my home? 

Yes, my complete package can be applied to an entire home or tailored to a single space. If you’re renovating a kitchen, bathroom or any other room in the house, I’m happy to work with you to make that aspect of your home perfect.

Do you work on new home builds? 

Yes. I highly recommend engaging an interior designer early in the process too. A good home must consider how you want to live in it and that can only be executed well when the interiors are considered first.  See some of my recent new home projects here. 

Do you work on renovations?

Yes. I love transforming homes and have worked on many renovation projects, including my own home. See some recent home renovation projects here. 

Do you design for commercial projects?

Yes. While designing homes is where my heart is, I’ve worked on a range of commercial projects that align with my aesthetic too. I would be happy to learn more about your business to see if I’m the right fit. Please complete my enquiry form here or view some of my recent commercial build projects here.
