This service brings us on board at the earliest possible planning stage and takes through to final decoration and furnishing.

Having established what you want to achieve, we survey the property and draw up full pans. We work with you to reconfigure or extend your home, making the optimum use of the space. Working with other professionals such as structural engineers and party wall surveyors, we prepare for the work to be undertaken. We can also apply for any necessary permissions.

A full scope of works is developed for costing, and we can either work with your builder or draw on our experience to suggest companies that we have worked with previously.

As work progresses on the nuts and bolts of the building programme, we also develop full design schemes including lighting, furniture and finishes.

If you are looking to redecorate and refurnish, we work with you on furniture layouts and design schemes, sourcing everything from furniture to finishing touches and art.

We start with a full consultation, to find out what you love and hate, and how you want to use the space. We measure the space so that we can draw up options and be realistic about what will and won’t work.

The benefit of working with an interior designer is access to their vast portfolio of suppliers that would otherwise not be available. We draw on this and our close links with craftsmen to deliver a scheme that is wholly tailored to you.

The design elements that you don’t see are as important as those you do.

Intelligent and layered lighting will transform a space. We have a myriad of choices; making the right choice will make or break a room. We create comprehensive lighting schemes.

Similarly, making sure that the electrical points and cabling for TV and sound systems are planned for early on is key to a beautiful space that benefits from all of the latest technology.

We never install technology for the sake of it. If it helps, then it has a place. But only as part.of the scheme as a whole. We work with professionals whose expertise can make this simple and understandable.

Once designs are finalised, we work with the contractor and other trades and suppliers to deliver the fininshed scheme.

We are regularly on site, providing technical drawings and specifications, and arranging deliveries of materials and furnishings to avoid delays. Projects will often throw up the unexpected, so we are there to provide an overview and find a solution to keep up the momentum, liaising between clients and contractors as work progresses.

Working with Listed properties, and those in conservation areas, has its own particular challenges. These can prove frustrating but sometimes they can prompt designs that might never have been thought of without that extra nuance.

It’s important to know what you can and cannot do in a Listed building; what needs permission and how to apply; how to meld the ideal with the permissible.

We have worked in many projects in Listed buildings, taking them from the design phase, through planning permissions, the build and final decoration. We can advise you throughout, so that ultimately you can enjoy the original details of your home, without feeling stymied by the process.

Every home is different. One of the benefits of using an interior designer is that you home will be as individual as you are.

And to ensure that we are not constrained by what is available off the peg, we work with furniture makers, designers of lighting, rug makers and many others to create pieces that will are unique.

We also design and supply bespoke fitted and freestanding cabinetry, that will enhance the space, maximise storage and conceal the less attractive practical things such as air conditioning and technology.
