Sam
I recently hired Grazia to renovate and change the layout of my home. She listened carefully to my needs and preferences and worked tirelessly to create a design that was both functional and aesthetically pleasing. Her use of a minimalist, contemporary, and also Mediterranean style was exactly what I was looking for. Big attention to detail. The finishes, fixtures, furniture, etc are all amazing. She also managed the architectural drawings and planning application for the change of use for my big garage to an annex. I couldn't be happier with the end result. More...

Laura
We never can recommend her enough. Grazia is very patient and always available. She was able to manage all design stages creatively. She changed the layout of our ground floor and also added a rear extension. Our house is very functional now and also wonderful thanks to the interior design she provided. Very precise and keen for details. We love the final result. More...

What’s your interior design process?
We will start to work with the client to schedule a program in terms of time and steps to follow so the starting point will be a meeting for an initial consultation and speaking about the client's needs and all aspects of the project. We’ll undertake a survey of the house so we can have a base for drawing the existing house. Preparation of the proposed drawings will be the third step. The existing drawings will form the basis for a series of 2d and 3d sketches proposals, in which we will explore the property’s development potential and see if we can come up with a solution that ticks all the boxes for function, additional space, and aesthetic appeal.
Which interior design styles can you cater for?
Minimal, Contemporary, Scandinavian, Mediterranean, casual, japandi.
What do you love most about your job?
I have a proven ability to design by finding the right solution for clients, I love creating tidier and more functional homes, for me, it's like a game. I love to see the happiness of a single customer incredulous that his needs are not achievable. I always try my best to make the customer's dreams come true. Every project I've worked on in my career has always exceeded all client expectations.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I started my current business because I felt there was an opportunity to provide more with Lavika. While the classics have their place, I want to offer my customers a different and surprising experience. I studied and also worked in Italy and this opportunity gives me the possibility to have a different point of view. I am very precise and always keen to details. I am a creative and original thought. I started my career very early so I have 15 years of experience in the field. I'm sure you will be surprised by the unimaginable final result whether it's an architectural project or an interior design one.
Why should our clients choose you?
I have over 10 years of experience working on residential projects. I approach each project as a path, a narration of the client's personality and – in part – of mine as well.
In my projects, I try to find a meeting point between functionality and aesthetics. But I'm more interested in the soul of each house and the client's needs, which are my real starting point. The house today is a special refuge: it must be designed carefully. Each project I've worked on in my career always passed all client's expectations.
