Designing Across Borders: A Busy Season for Me!

🏡 Working with Abroad Clients: As an interior designer, I’m thrilled to collaborate with clients from around the world. Lately, I’ve been assisting clients who own apartments in but are based abroad. They entrust me with transforming their spaces into beautiful, functional homes.

🎨 Furnishing: From selecting furniture pieces to arranging layouts, I meticulously curate interiors that reflect their tastes and lifestyle. Distance doesn’t hinder our creative process—I communicate virtually and ensure seamless ex*****on.

🎨 Painting and Decorating: Walls come alive with color! I advise on paint choices, textures, and finishes. Whether it’s a cozy bedroom or an open-concept living area, I make sure the walls tell a story.

🎨 Tiling Magic: Tiles add character and elegance. My clients’ bathrooms, kitchens, and entryways receive special attention. I explore patterns, materials, and grout options to create stunning tile designs.

📆 Busy Season: This time of year is bustling! Balancing multiple projects, time zones, and cultural nuances keeps me on my toes. But the joy of seeing a client’s vision come to life makes it all worthwhile.

🌟 Another Successful Interior Design Masterclass! 🌟

We spent a day full of creativity and inspiring ideas at our latest interior design masterclass! It was a fantastic session where passion and innovation flowed freely.

It was lovely to see a familiar face and catch up with Asta with whom we did abstract painting classes a decade ago.

We had the pleasure of welcoming a participant from Canada, who is building a new house and looking for inspiration. By the end of the day, she found clarity, narrowed down her style preferences, and gained the confidence to make design decisions quickly and effectively.

We were also thrilled to host a budding interior designer who travelled all the way from Cork, Ireland, for a day trip. His enthusiasm for starting a career in interior design was truly inspiring. Watch this space for incredible talent emerging from our classes!

Our masterclasses are designed to empower individuals, whether they’re looking to pursue a career in interior design or seeking to transform their own homes. Join us and discover the confidence to bring your design visions to life!

Inspiration can be found in the most extraordinary places! Recently, I had the pleasure of exploring the stunning East Coast of Scotland. On the second day, I visited the V&A Dundee and was mesmerised by the Kimono exhibition. The intricate designs and rich history were truly captivating.

But the inspiration didn't stop there—the V&A Dundee itself, designed by the brilliant Kengo Kuma, is a masterpiece. I loved spending time in this beautifully designed space, where every detail was carefully considered ✨

Whether it’s a coastal landscape or an architectural gem, inspiration is all around us, ready to be woven into our next design
