A HOME THAT WORKS FOR YOU
When I’m designing a home, I’m not just thinking about how it will look, I’m thinking about how it will feel to live there every day. Sometimes, before adding anything new, it’s worth looking at what’s already in the room. What do you love? What do you actually use? And what is simply taking up space?
A room doesn’t need to be minimalist to feel calm, it can be full of colour, pattern, books, photographs and all the things that make it yours. But when everything has a purpose and a place, the whole room feels easier to live in.
That might mean better storage, fewer pieces of furniture, clearing an overcrowded surface or simply leaving a little more breathing space.
For me, good interior design is about finding that balance between beautiful and practical. Not creating a show home, but creating a home that feels like you and works for the way you live.

Choosing the right bed is about proportion, material, and longevity.
Start with scale - Always opt for the largest bed your room can comfortably accommodate, ensuring there’s still space either side for bedside tables. A bed should anchor the room not float awkwardly within it.
In larger children’s bedrooms, there’s no rule that says you must choose a single. A double bed can sit far more harmoniously in the space and allows the room to evolve as they grow.
Material choice matters.
An upholstered bed introduces softness, texture, and warmth — ideal for creating a layered, restful feel. A wooden frame offers structure and timelessness, working beautifully in more architectural or pared-back schemes.
A headboard is essential. I’m never convinced by a bed without one — it gives presence, defines the bed, and visually completes the room.
Styling details make all the difference:
– A king-size duvet on a double bed allows the bedding to drape generously, adding depth and comfort
– On a king-size bed, a super king duvet achieves the same considered, hotel-like effect
– For king beds and above, king-size pillows fill the width far better than standard sizes and enhance balance
Finally, invest in the mattress.
A well-made mattress should last around eight years, and when you consider the hours spent in bed, comfort becomes non-negotiable. Materials, firmness, and construction all matter.
Personally, I chose a Harrison Spinks mattress with 16,000 springs, designed to be flipped seasonally — wool for the colder months, a cooler surface for warmer nights. Thoughtfully made, and designed to last.
A well-designed bed isn’t just about sleep — it’s about creating a room that feels resolved, calm, and intentional.
