Frequently Asked Questions
1. What services do you offer?
I offer full-service interior design and consultation packages tailored to your needs. Whether you’re looking for a comprehensive redesign or just need some guidance to refine your space, I can help you transform your home into a vibrant, welcoming reflection of your style and personality.
I also offer a personalised design blueprint, often referred to as E-design, which is perfect if you’re ready to take on the implementation yourself. This is the highest level of support for those who don’t need help with project management but want a meticulously crafted design plan to execute.
I’ll provide a design experience that immerses you in every intricate detail, allowing you to bring it to life at your own pace. I go above and beyond to create a truly personalised journey, taking care of elements that may not have even crossed your mind.
2. What makes your approach different from other designers?
I specialise in creating bold, personality-filled interiors using colour and pattern to bring spaces to life. I also manage projects from concept to completion, ensuring a seamless and stress-free process, so you can focus on enjoying the transformation. I’m also a lot of fun, upbeat and informal so if this is your approach, we’ll have a lot of fun creating your dream home.
3. What should I expect from the initial discovery call?
Our first call is a chance to get to know each other. I’ll ask about your style, needs, and what you want to achieve. There’s no need to show me around your home just yet—this is all about understanding your vision and seeing if I’m the right designer for your project.
4. How long does a typical project take?
It depends on the scope of the project. A single-room makeover might take 6-8 weeks, while a full-home redesign could take several months. We’ll discuss specific timelines during our consultation to make sure we’re aligned on expectations.
5. Do I need to have a clear vision before we start working together?
Not at all! I’m here to help refine your vision and bring it to life. Whether you have lots of ideas or aren’t sure where to begin, I’ll guide you through mood boards, samples, and suggestions until we’ve nailed a look that feels perfectly ‘you.’
6. How do you work with busy professionals who have demanding schedules?
My full-service design is tailored for busy people. I handle everything—coordinating tradespeople, managing timelines, and overseeing installation—so you can focus on your work and home life while I take care of all the details.
7. Do you manage trades and suppliers?
Yes, for full-service projects, I handle all the logistics, including liaising with contractors, suppliers, and tradespeople. My goal is to make the process as smooth and stress-free as possible, so you can simply look forward to the final reveal!
8. How do I know if you’re the right designer for me?
If you love bold colours, interesting patterns, and want a home that feels vibrant, welcoming, and full of personality, we’re probably a perfect match! But it’s also about connection—I want to make sure we get along and that you feel confident and excited about working together. That’s why the discovery call is so important—it’s a chance for us to see if we ‘click’!
9. Can I keep some of my existing furniture and art?
Absolutely. I love working with pieces that have a story or hold sentimental value. We can integrate your favourite items into the new design or suggest ways to update them to suit your new look.
10. What areas do you cover?
I work with clients in Surrey, Berkshire, Hampshire, and SW London. If you’re based elsewhere, I’m happy to discuss options for virtual consultations!
11. How do you charge for your services?
My fee structure varies depending on the scope and type of service. For full-service projects, I charge a design fee based on the size of the project, plus a separate project management fee. We’ll go through all the details during our initial consultation, so you have full transparency.
12. What if I don’t like the final design?
I take great care to ensure you’re involved in the process and love each stage of the design. We work collaboratively, so by the time we get to the final design, it’s a true reflection of your vision. If there’s anything you’re unsure about, we can discuss adjustments and make it work for you.
13. How do I get started?
It all starts with a discovery call. Book your slot, and we’ll take it from there! If we’re a good fit, we’ll discuss the next steps and begin turning your vision into reality
14. What’s your design style?
My style is all about creating bold, vibrant, and personality-filled spaces using a confident mix of colour, pattern, and texture. However, it’s ultimately about your style. I work closely with each client to understand their tastes and preferences, ensuring that the end result is a space that feels uniquely you—one that’s both luxurious and welcoming, with a sense of sophistication and fun.
