LARGE SCALE
Full renovations & new builds
We work collaboratively with architects and other specialists to create an exceptional interior design scheme, as part of an ambitious renovation or new build project.
From hard finishes to soft furnishings, we bring our unique perspective as interior designer to the overall design process; we believe that there is massive benefit to bringing us on at the beginning of the project alongside your architect team.
Once the project itself is built, if required, we offer full furniture sourcing services, to include installation and styling.

Our services
We provide residential and commercial interior design for urban and rural projects of all sizes: from large-scale renovations and new builds, to mid-scale refurbishments, and smaller design consultancies.
Every project is distinct, and we always begin with a thorough conversation to find out how best to tailor our services to your vision, needs and budget.
WHAT TO EXPECT
How we work...
LISTEN
Our approach will always be collaborative, empathetic, and centred on you. Every project begins with an engaged conversation. We’ll meet you on site and ask lots of questions to help understand your needs, values, and routines – ensuring we then have a detailed brief and clear sense of the budget needed to transform your space.
DESIGN
This is the fun bit. We’ll scope out ideas, map the room and furniture layouts, and bring lots of creative energy to the project. We suggest colour palettes and outline room schemes, proposing exciting, thoughtful choices and opening your eyes to design possibilities. At the end of this stage we aim for clarity of overall design concept.
DEVELOP
One step closer to your ideal interior. We evolve the concept design, getting into the fine details so that everything is priced up and planned for. We often work alongside architects at this stage, supporting with final drawings for joinery, kitchen or bathroom designs and creating any tender packages for contractors.
DETAIL
Furniture, fittings, and equipment are purchased, stored and delivered. Meticulous attention to detail ensures everything is flawless. We’ll make sure your space is exactly as you want it and resolve any snagging issues. Product manuals are shared. And finally, styling and finishing touches, down to the last light switch...
CONSULTATIONS
Single rooms, styling & bespoke advice
Affordable interior design services that can help you transform one or more rooms by providing colour or lighting schemes, furniture layouts and purchasing options.
We also provide advice on a wealth of supplier resources, from flooring manufacturers to sanitaryware suppliers, to lead you in the right direction towards revamping spaces in your own time.
Consultancy packages from £480
MID SCALE
Refurbishments & multi-room design
On our medium-sized projects, we often work with an architect (either with our in-house architect or with your preferred architect) as these projects tend to require minor structural remodelling as part of a building works package.
Focusing on the redesign of several spaces, including kitchens and bathrooms, we ensure that every room in your home or business is thoughtfully designed.
We provide the full drawing package required by a contractor and can then oversee building works on your behalf. We also offer a procurement service sourcing furniture, fittings and hard finishes.
