Sofia was amazing, very professional, organised and quick. She jumped straight in on the right wavelength for us. We will certainly be asking for her help again - and I hope soon.

As a client of mine I’ve had the pleasure of working with Sofia on three different projects, all involving various building and decorating tasks. From the outset, it was clear that Sofia was not only confident in what she wanted but whose instructions were always clear and precise, making the objectives and expectations for each job easy to follow. What stands out most about Sofia is her meticulous approach to project management. She pays close attention to every detail, ensuring that the work is executed to the highest standard. Her commitment to quality is something I greatly appreciate, she genuinely cares for every project like her own. Sofia also has an impressive ability to quickly grasp the processes involved in each project. When faced with new challenges her flexibility has been a key strength, contributing significantly to the success of our projects. Beyond her professional abilities, Sofia is also a kind and fair leader. She has always treated me with respect and the working environment has therefore been positive and collaborative. Working with Sofia has been a rewarding experience and I look forward to working on future projects with her. More...

Having been completely lost how to redesign my home, Sofia came in like a breath of fresh air. She uses her years of consultancy experience to provide a first-class service. We started with a decluttering exercise and I was able to remove multiple suitcases of clutter to free up space. Sofia took the time to understand my needs, budget and timelines. Following this, I was presented with beautiful and practical design ideas and product listings that have transformed my flat in Bermondsey. Throughout the improvements, she was an excellent project manager, highlighting key deadlines and arranging for work to be completed at convenient times. I’d recommend Sofia to anyone looking for interior design, whether for a single space, or their entire home. You’ll get an amazing service and Sofia works really hard to ensure everyone she works with, is super comfortable and has a home they are really proud of! More...

What’s your interior design process?
My interior design process begins with an initial call to discuss your requirements and is followed by a questionnaire to help me understand your needs and preferences for the space. Afterwards, I’ll develop a customised design plan, complete with the concept board, furniture layout and a comprehensive shopping list with clickable links. I will then hold a consultation to go over my recommendations and answer any questions you may have.
Please note my interior design services are delivered remotely / online at the moment and I do not provide detailed architecural drawings.
How the process works
- Discovery call and questionnaire
- Complete design developed for your space
- Design pack presented and reviewed together
- One round of consolidated feedback before finalisation
Important to know
To keep the process efficient and focused:
- The design is delivered as a complete scheme (not in stages)
- One round of feedback is included
- Feedback is requested within 48 hours
- Additional sourcing or alternative options can be added as a separate service
Which interior design styles can you cater for?
Minimalist, elegant, traditional, contemporary, modern, pops of colour and eclectic. These styles emphasise clean lines, a clutter-free approach and often incorporate multifunctional furniture, aligning well with my design philosophy of balancing beauty with practicality.
What do you love most about your job?
I love transforming spaces and seeing clients' joy.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I have a passion for creating spaces that inspire a sense of calm and pride. I have a genuine desire to make my clients' space both beautiful and functional, and where they can feel comfortable and happy.
