Approach to design

Interior design is very personal. It is important to get a comprehensive brief at the initial stage of the design process and building a good working relationship with the client is key to this. I pride myself on building that good working relationship and it has served me well in the past.
I am very visual in my approach. I like to provide my clients with initial drawings, floor plans and renders to provide a working basis for moving forward. I am contemporary in my approach to colour and to style trends and I work with leading manufacturers across the design spectrum.
