What’s your interior design process?
Whether you come to us with a comprehensive project brief or not, our initial focus is on building a deep understanding of our clients needs. We believe in forging a connection before immersing ourselves in the design process. We don't believe in design trends; instead, we are dedicated to crafting spaces that blend timeless beauty with practical functionality.
For businesses seeking our expertise, it is imperative that we grasp the message you intend to convey to the world and how you wish to be perceived. If you already possess a strong brand identity, our commitment lies in fortifying and enhancing it through meticulously designed spaces that effectively communicate your message.
As a homeowner aspiring to elevate your living spaces or make strategic investments, we are resolute in our mission to create designs that harmonise aesthetics with the essential comforts your lifestyle demands.
Our studio operates as a comprehensive service, providing guidance from the project's inception and extending our support well beyond its completion. We are here to transform your vision into timeless, functional, and aesthetically pleasing surroundings.
Which interior design styles can you cater for?
We can cater for:
- old-world charm meets modern age
- contemporary decorative
- contemporary minimalist
- maximalist spaces
- Wabi sabi style
- Tone-on-tone, in other words very natural and highly textured spaces
What do you love most about your job?
The environment we inhabit significantly influences our psychology and behaviour, evoking a range of emotions from basic happiness to more nuanced feelings like inspiration, courage, or even intimidation. As an interior designer, I find immense satisfaction in harnessing creativity and vision to shape emotions within a space. This ability is particularly valuable for businesses aiming to appeal to specific demographics or homeowners seeking environments that authentically align with their lifestyles and aspirations.
What inspired you to start your own business?
Having spent a decade in leading positions of numerous successful interiors projects, ranging from mid to large-scale in both the luxury commercial and residential sectors, the evolution towards establishing my own company felt like a natural next step. This transition allows me not only greater control over the projects I undertake but also offers the opportunity to forge deeper connections with prospective clients.
Why should our clients choose you?
If you're looking for timeless designs that offer beauty and comfort in equal measures, we're the studio for you. We possess the expertise to guide you throughout the entire project journey, collaborating with various team-members like architects, engineers, contractors, and suppliers. Our commitment extends to keeping you well-informed and involved in our design proposals and processes.
Given that surprises are inherent in every project, we recognise the importance of maintaining a flexible and solution-oriented mindset. This approach ensures that we adeptly navigate unforeseen challenges without losing sight of the overarching project goals.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
We can definitely offer online/remote services.
We've already worked with many clients in this format and I would always advise in holding weekly/monthly meetings for either a catch-up, design presentations, design workshop sessions and general feedback.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
Covid-19 should not be an issue if the services you require from us can be done 100% remotely. In the event that a client needs us present on-site, or wants to have face-to-face meetings with them and/or their team, we'll take all the necessary precautions to ensure that we're fit and free from any symptoms, even if only a mild flu.
