A little vision, a lot of hard work… and one very happy garden lover. 🌿

Creating this Mediterranean-inspired patio has been such a rewarding project, and it’s now my favourite place to sit with a coffee, read a book or simply enjoy the sunshine.

Designing my own outdoor space reminded me that the best spaces aren’t always the biggest or the most expensive—they’re the ones that make you want to spend time in them.

Proof that great design doesn’t stop at your back door. 🤍

A little design concept I’ve been working on recently ✨

I’ve been exploring how this coach house could be reimagined through the lens of my signature Coastal Modern aesthetic; creating a home that feels calm, timeless and effortlessly elegant.

Across the exterior, gardens and interiors, the vision centres around warm taupe and cream tones, natural timber, beautiful textures, Mediterranean-inspired planting, layered lighting and thoughtfully designed spaces that blur the line between indoors and out.

These images have been created using AI as a visualisation tool to help bring ideas to life and explore different design possibilities during the concept stage. While they’re not final designs, they provide a powerful way to test materials, layouts, colours and overall design direction before any decisions are made.

I love combining traditional interior design principles with emerging technology to communicate a vision and explore what’s possible.

Coastal Modern living, reimagined. 🌿

A bold evolution of an already exciting project.

While designing the interiors for this substantial new-build home, I proposed an alternative neo-classical exterior direction to align more cohesively with the interior vision. The clients embraced the concept wholeheartedly, resulting in a redesigned façade and updated planning approval.

Delighted to finally share these stunning visualisations.

From an empty roof space to a fully realised sanctuary 🔨☁️.

This project was more than just a room design—we built this entire loft conversion from the ground up. It’s been a journey of structural transformations, floorplan reconfigurations, and finally, the fun part: layering the soul into the space.

I wanted this new room to feel like a warm, modern coastal escape. I used neutral linens and sun-bleached textures to create a ‘cocoon’ effect under the new eaves. To tie it all together, I painted the bespoke coastal piece specifically for this renovation to bring in that calm, elemental energy.

Design Note: Used a bit of digital magic to tidy the linens so the focus stays on the custom textures and original art! ✨

I was commissioned to paint this piece as part of a bedroom I recently designed. Ready to be hung just above this lovely headboard.

A calm, abstract seascape.

Designing the space and painting this piece felt like a natural extension of the same vision — soft, fluid, and calming.

I love creating artwork that’s made specifically for a space — it always feels more personal and considered.

New project on the grid ✨ (even though it’s been a year in the making behind the scenes)
Seeing everything come together on site like this is the best part—progress has been incredible lately. So much more to come…

Yay ✨ The worktops are now installed at our Banstead project.

The worktops are made from a quartzite called ‘Taj Mahal’ and it’s finished in a honed leathered texture. I specified a mitred drop edge of just over 6cm on the island to make it feel chunky and luxurious. We would have gone even thicker but this type of installation does require the island to be of a higher height than standard and as my clients are not super tall and they also have a growing family, we decided to keep it functional. The side run is 30mm thick so is also proportionally aligned with the islands thickness. We have a 100mm upstand around the edge and a huge back splash behind the hob within the bespoke canopy hood. And to finish it off, a stone capped pop up socket, secretly concealed within the island worktop with a simple push to open mechanism.

Thank you once again to Affordable Granite whom I have worked with for years and their craftsmanship, quality product and amazing customer service are second to none.

They said describe your style so I built it…straight out of my imagination and into your feed. Hope you like this concept I’ve been working on.

From tired and dated to modern and functional ✨

This full transformation included a complete refurbishment and a knock-through of the old dining and living rooms to create one seamless, open-plan kitchen space — perfect for everyday living and entertaining.

We also created a brand new utility room for added practicality, and transformed a former toilet into a luxurious, fully finished shower room 🚿

A total reimagining of the space, designed to bring light, flow, and functionality into the heart of the home.
