Westoe
About
The clients wanted a sanctuary, a bedroom befitting this graceful home. We explored installing elaborate cornicing and ceiling detail, in keeping with the Italianate style of the home. Westoe is said to be modelled on Osbourne House, Queen Victoria and Albert's retreat on the Isle of Wight. I've used cool greens here, and strong textures, classic Sanderson curtaining, teamed with a Cole & Sons wallpaper. All beautifully contrasting with the dark timbers and grand scale of the room. The fabrics are naturel fibers, including linen, a herringbone woolen headboard and a woolen plaid teamed with Tasman leather on the stately Montreux armchairs

About the
Professional
I specialise in thoughtfully crafted interiors, coordinating key design elements to create enduring, unique, life enhancing spaces.
Recycled textiles, the sourcing of fine art, restoring classic furniture, and salvage are a particular focus - bringing depth and story to the spaces I design.
Textiles, lighting, art, furnishings, flooring, and finishing touches are sourced internationally and locally (where possible).
I take great pleasure in the collaborative journey, discovering your personal style, understanding how you live, and working together to realise your dreams with versatile and bespoke design. Whether a new build, full renovation, or just a wee zhoosh up, please contact me.
