This space skillfully combines work and play for the busy client, featuring a lounge area with a large frame TV for PlayStation entertainment and a practical workbench for his various hobbies. His treasures are elegantly displayed behind glass. The goal was to blend old and new elements, resulting in a space that is both functional and enjoyable. The fresco Caspian Sea waxed walls provide an ideal backdrop for a man cave atmosphere, while the bone French wash ceiling contributes to the inviting ambiance.

About the
Professional

I’m an Interior Designer passionate about creating stunning and functional spaces that reflect the unique personalities of my clients. My journey has been fueled by creativity and innovation, enabling me to transform ordinary environments into extraordinary experiences.

My approach to interior design is all about maximizing the potential of each home while ensuring that every space reflects the individuality of its occupants. One of my key specialties lies in reimagining existing layouts. By cleverly utilising the available footprint of a home, I create practical storage solutions and enhance smaller areas, ensuring that every corner of your space is functional and beautiful.

My commitment to originality sets me apart. I don't believe in cookie-cutter designs; instead, my quest is to find artisans to custom-build unique pieces that transform your house into a timeless sanctuary. Each element is thoughtfully designed to resonate with your personal style and to stand the test of time, both in aesthetics and quality.

I specialise in providing expertly crafted custom paint finishes, custom building and handmade bespoke tiles to create focal points that make your home truly one-of-a-kind. These textured and layered designs bring a sense of artistry and character that completely elevate your living space to that next level.

A skilled team of craftsmen is essential to the success of any renovation project. These talented individuals bring a wealth of expertise and a keen eye for detail, ensuring that every aspect meets the highest standards of quality. Their craftsmanship enhances the overall design and allows me to deliver flawless results that are customized to your vision. Together, we collaborate to transform spaces into stunning environments that reflect your style and meet your needs. With this dedicated team behind me, you can trust that your renovation will be executed with precision and care.

At the heart of my philosophy is the belief in investing wisely. I advocate for purchasing once and choosing quality pieces that you absolutely adore—items that won’t become outdated or worn in just a few years.

You’re not just buying decor; you’re investing in enduring beauty and functionality that will enhance your home and bring you joy for years to come.

Having had the privilege of working on a diverse range of global projects, I've collaborated with talented professionals and high-end brands, earning recognition for my contributions in marketing, events and design. My qualifications include diplomas in Interior Design as well as specialised fields, which empower me with a nuanced understanding of design principles and trends.

I offer a personalised design process with limited availability, ensuring that you primarily work with me throughout this journey. My goal is to create unique spaces that inspire, uplift, and feel like home. Whether you require a complete renovation or need assistance in finding those curated objects of desire, I am here to support you.
