After ten years of running my studio, it felt like the right moment to pause, reflect, and breathe new life into my online home.  Just as every space I design evolves over time, so too has my work – maturing with me, gaining more depth, warmth, and intention.

When I first started, my website was simply a portfolio: a place to share finished projects and a few words about what I do.  But as the years passed, I realised that what truly drives me isn’t just creating beautiful interiors  – it’s crafting spaces with soul.  Spaces that tell stories, hold memories, and feel deeply lived-in.

This new website is a reflection of that growth.  It carries the same essence I try to instil in every home – balance, character, and meaning  – while also giving me a space to share more openly: design insights, behind-the-scenes musings, and perhaps a few personal reflections along the way.

You’ll also notice a new addition: the Shop.  Over the years, painting has been my creative escape –  a way to express colour and emotion beyond interiors.  I’ve decided to bring that part of my world here, offering my paintings (and soon, curated furnishings and small decorative pieces) to help others add a touch of soul and individuality to their own homes.

A special thank you goes to Steves&Co., who have so carefully curated this new website to reflect my personal style and the spirit behind my work.

So, welcome – to a refreshed space that feels a little more like me.  A space that celebrates beauty, imperfection, and authenticity.  I hope you’ll stay a while.
