The chillier weather is settling in, Autumn Melbourne colours are on every corner and I’m stoking the fire most nights.

It took me a while to get used to calling May a cooler month (I’ve lived most of my life in London) and I think of May as the promise of summer, not the cosy hunker-down month it is here…🍁

But, there is a certain beauty in Melbourne in this late Autumn, more inside living and early to bed nights. I find myself standing at windows, coffee cup in hand looking out at the views, pondering my next steps. Inspiration comes often at those moments.

It’s also a great time of year to start the design process for a renovation. A reflection on what is working and what isn’t, a plan for evolving your home and feeling inspiration for the look, feel and actual outcome we want to create. The ideal kitchens for entertaining in the summer months, or the cosy nooks for the cooer ones…

If you are renovating this year, now is the time to get in touch and start the ball rolling. The winter months are perfect for creating a plan, starting a concept so by the time the warmer months come around, a design, momentum and even better a plan to action….

If this sounds like you, then reach out, I’d love to chat. I’m offering May 15 minute calls to get you started and figure out your best next steps…

Set the Mood…

Moodboards are used to define a vibe, an aesthetic, introduce key pieces and show how a space might “feel” to be in at the end of the project.

Don’t overthink it - go with your instinct. 😊 Tell me your favourite in the comments…⬇️ I’d love to hear!

My recent clients were feeling overwhelmed, unsure and well, let's just say there was a bit of "tension" over choices. There were oodles of choices to make, but my clients did not know where to start.

With a kitchen, bathroom and en suite, how were they going to choose the right things, make the new home look great and get everything to the builder on time and with confidence?

Well, that my friends, is what they used Designer for a Day for...

The result?

✅ Tiles, fixtures and finishes chosen
✅ Paint colour selected
✅ Benchtop selected
✅ Sanity saved

If you find yourself spinning your wheels on your renovation, worried about the choices you are making and needing the help to select things that will look amazing, then it's time to reach out.

Please call me on 0423 595 768 or send me a DM and I look forward to helping you. 🩷

With design projects all encompassing, I feel it’s time for a little reintroduction -

I’m Anna, Melbourne Interior Designer, business owner and creator of timeless designs for beautiful homes.

I am:

➡️ qualified, with a Diploma in Interior Design, meaning I understand my craft, the origin of good design, the technical aspects behind good planning as well as how how our finished homes affect our mood, energy and how we approach life
➡️ a lover of spacial planning - good spacial planning, you will never be able to make the most of your home
➡️ a believer in investing in custom cabinetry - not only does it set your home apart from the ordinary, it solves storage issues, creates a sense of balance and utilises every corner
➡️ appreciative of the fact that all my previous life experience, raising a family, working in the banking sector in London and being a Personal Assistant to challenging entrepreneurs are what gave me the skills to do my craft even better now.

Is there something else you would like to know?

I’ve been showing a little of this project on my stories, but I wanted to chat through the importance of spacial planning.

With an Annexe design, spatial planning creates good flow and good flow is everything about making a space feel liveable.

A space has to feel right when you walk in.

✅The proportions must be sound.

✅It must have zoning, or specific areas for specific tasks.

✅And there must be visual balance.

Without those principles, the space will just feel wrong.

In this design, the brief was to transform an under utilised annexe into a liveable home for a young adult son, and eventually have this as a space for guests of all ages. The kitchen, living and study area are all open plan, creating distinct areas for each activity. Relaxing on the sofa, easy dining area at the bench and a space for study and work.

Having the bedroom area separate means that the occupants can “retire” for the evening, good for circadian rhythm, good for study and good for life.

If in an area in your home doesn’t feel right, then good spacial planning is probably missing. This is all part of the all important Concept Phase of a project.

Have you any areas in your home, that aren’t feeling quite right? Let me know, or send me a message with your question. I’d love to hear from you!
