Let’s Get Your Apartment Furnished 🪑

I’ve furnished hundreds of rooms in my 13 years and I can tell you one thing for certain: designing and decorating an apartment is SO different than working on a larger family home.

From spaces that need to do double-duty, choosing versatile furniture, laying out items in small spaces and navigating tight elevators/doorways - I’ve done it all.

If you need help designing or decorating your apartment, comment ‘apartment’ or drop me a DM and let’s get your home looking like a stunner and functioning even better.

We have a few spots left for new clients before the end of the year - let’s do this 🕺🏼

We had privacy-free pools. We had w**e cellars with a view of the car boot. We had fireplaces you can't sit in front of. It was a disappointing week on The Block, and I'm dropping all of my truth bombs in this honest design recap.

I'm dropping my truth bombs on this week's reveals.

You love me, you really love me 🖤

I cannot tell you how rewarding it is when a client trusts you with their home, believes in your vision, and lets you drive the journey from initial consultation right through to final cushion chop.

I have furnished and designed hundreds of rooms in my 13 years as a designer and the common thread that keeps appearing in a successful project is trust.

When you trust the expert you brought in, let go, and allow the process to unfold, it really can be a phenomenal result (as these client reviews illustrate).

Are you ready to let go? It really is a life-changing experience when you let me take the reigns - I promise 😉

If you have more than four guest over I guess someone is eating their steak in the sauna? 🤦

We had some wow moments, and some womp-womp ones.

The redo rooms changed, but I have to wonder if it was worth the effort. And kids rooms that weren't kids rooms; that is some defiant Blockhead activity right there! My honest recap is here and I'm keen to know if you agree.

Redo rooms and kids spaces left a lot to be desired this week.

We have so much to talk about after this week's Block rumpus and laundry reveals. From that sofa appearing yet again to the placement of the laundry appliances, we're going there!

Chris gives his designer critique and addresses the big sofa issue.

Is the goal a great home or the cheapest home possible?

Tales from a real phone call…

A potential client called me up. After talking them through our entire process and how we work with our interior design clients, the inevitable question came up about how much it would cost to fully furnish the rooms in their new home.

I gave them honesty: what they should invest to fully resolve every space. This is not based on vibes. This is not based on guess work. This is based on 13 years experience designing homes of all different sizes, styles and budgets.

Their response: ‘’Other designers have come in way lower - why is that?’’

So I gave more honesty: ‘’They’re either low-balling you to win your job - and you’ll discover the truth halfway through, or they’re going to put cheap crap in your home that won’t last’’ 🤷🏻‍♂️

There is no other answer. And I get it; lower prices sound appealing. But what is the goal here? A beautiful home or a race to the bottom on price with a result that looks OK but doesn’t last?

I’m always 100% transparent about pricing before I work with clients so there are no nasty surprises (whether they believe me or not is a different story).

And no, I’ll never be the cheapest interior designer. But again, what is the goal here, because you’ll never get phenomenal AND cheap 😎

Don’t get this wrong with your walk-in-robe design…

The best walk-in robes follow one of two formulas:

➡️ They either have a cavity slider door installed at the entry to the robe - with doorless cupboards inside.

➡️ Or, there’s no door at the entry of the robe, but every cupboard inside the robe has a door front.

You never want to be in a situation where there’s no door into the robe AND no doors on any of the cupboards inside.

That, my friends, is a recipe for visual chaos - and something you definitely don’t want to be looking at when you’re lying in bed.

Which formula did you follow when you designed your walk-in robe? I’m hoping you didn’t make the big blunder of having no doors at all 🫣
