Interior Designer + Construction Experience

From refined kitchens and bathrooms to full-home transformations, I bring a layer of real-world construction and property development insight, ensuring every design choice is intentional, achievable, and adds real value, whether it's a forever home or future sale.

I collaborate early with architects and builders to refine floorplans, consider joinery, service locations, and material choices before things are locked in. This reduces variations, speeds up construction, and ensures your home is designed with both beauty and buildability in mind.

I unlock the full potential of dated and compact spaces by reworking layouts, improving circulation and enhancing natural light. My construction background allows me to factor in practical plumbing relocations, structural constraints and shared services to give you cost effective and future-proofed solutions.

Take the headaches out of searching yourself. Curated furniture and lighting elevate your space and tell your story. I have broad access to trade-only discounts and suppliers with options to customise, making your interior timeless, intentional and long-lasting, not just trend driven.

Full-Service Interior Design

It begins with a conversation. Share your ideas, goals, timelines and budget, and we’ll meet onsite or over Zoom. I'll outline how I can help, define a scope, provide a return brief and a fee proposal, giving you clarity from the very beginning.

I’ll visit your site, take measurements and understand it's context. Ideas will be explored and a concept package developed, including early spatial planning, mood boards, material palettes and design direction. This establishes the look, feel, and key ideas, welcoming your feedback before we refine.

With a concept established, I'll prepare 3D models, floorplans, joinery designs, products and material selections, This stage brings clarity, refines ideas, and locks in details, showing the design really come together for your residential or commercial interior. 

A detailed documentation package is prepared for quoting, approvals and construction. Documentation includes plans, elevations, joinery details and finishes schedules. This provides clarity for trades and suppliers ensuring the design is executed as intended.

5 | Contract Admin & Project Assistance

During construction, I can remain involved as much or as little as needed, comparing quotes, reviewing shop drawings, answering trade questions, recommending alternatives, and checking-in. My role is to maintain alignment between design intent and the realities on site, keeping everything coordinated stress-free.

Standalone & Partial Interior Services

Bespoke details often define a space, whether a kitchen, vanity, statement joinery, or a unique piece of furniture. I create detailed 2D and 3D documentation showing not only lines and measurements but that trades can bring to life the overarching design intent.

Ideal if you’re moving home or reworking a floorplan, needing clarity around flow and furniture sizing. I create functional layouts that consider circulation, storage and lifestyle, so that your space works beautifully before ordering something that doesn't fit!

Sometimes you just need help navigating the world of furniture and fixtures. Let me show you some of my favourites and what to look out for. I'll guide you through materials, proportions, and durability, as well as show you trade-only suppliers.

Whether you’re doing it yourself or just want to bounce some ideas, let’s jump on Zoom and chat colour palettes, materials, layouts, joinery, construction or anything else you need clarity on. It’s a flexible way to access expert guidance no matter from anywhere.
