Some words from Mary-Ellen:
“I can visualise your project from start to finish before the builders have even broken ground. My creative experience has taught me what really works in a home. From kitchens to bathrooms and everything in between, I will select top-quality fixture and finishes, lighting, wallpaper, paint colours and more to suit your style. Hello Saturday’s mission is to support busy people through their building process to help them make the right decisions that will create their dream home”.
Predominantly working in the central Auckland suburbs, Mary-Ellen can visualise your dream home while it’s still plans on paper. Working with you, she can help bring your ideas to life.
Mary-Ellen’s wealth of knowledge in the creativity industry has helped her establish a brand that is innovative, creative inspirational, and supportive while always continuing the pursuit of excellence not settling for second best.
