  • Why should I hire an interior designer?

    Interior designers bring expertise in spatial planning, colour coordination, and design principles. They can help you optimise your space, save time and money, and bring your vision to life while avoiding common pitfalls.

  • How do you charge?

    Fees are bespoke to each project. The process starts with an initial design consultation, when you’ll be given lots of initial ideas, and we’ll be able to get a good idea of the scope of the project. 


    Some people find the initial design consultation is sufficient for what they need and are happy to move forward on their own, while other clients prefer hands-on support for particular elements of their project or a tailored end-to-end service. 


    Once we have a better idea of the scope, we prepare a fee proposal for additional work you might need help with.  The cost of the initial consultation is deducted from on-going work.


    We offer a few slots a week for consultations, so please contact us to make a booking.

  • What is the difference between interior decorating & interior design?

     Interior decorating focuses on aesthetics, furniture and decor choices, while interior design involves a more comprehensive approach, including spatial planning, architectural elements and creating functional layouts.


  • How can I communicate my design preferences to the designer?

    We love to hear your ideas. These can be shared through images or discussed when we meet to chat about your lifestyle and any specific requirements you have. It’s a process we can guide you through.

  • Do you have preferred suppliers or vendors?

    We have established relationships with suppliers, vendors and contractors, but we are not tied any one shop. We choose our suppliers based on the requirements of the project. These connections can help streamline the procurement process and sometimes result in discounts for clients.


  • How involved do I need to be?

    As much or little as you’d like. Your involvement is essential at the briefing and decision-making stage, but you will receive regular updates. A good interior designer will adapt their approach to one that suits their client.

  • What if I don’t like the initial design?

    Always highlight areas you’re not happy with. Sometimes they have been missed out of the brief or have been confused in communication. The design isn’t signed off until you’re happy, and a number of changes are included in the process.

  • Can I implement the design in stages?

     Yes, this is a good way to control the budget, although often it’s more cost-effective to build the budget to the point the project can be developed all at once, to prevent doubling up on tasks.
