He's here 🩵

Our little Thomas Charles was born on 12th July, 10 days past his due date. What an eternity that wait felt!

He's absolutely thriving, and we're soaking up every moment in our little family bubble. I'd forgotten just how wonderful it is to have a brand new baby to snuggle.

I'll be honest, my return to work plans are a little uncertain right now. Although my eldest will be starting preschool in September, I'll still be at home with two young children and need to work out how to find that balance between motherhood and my love for interiors... again šŸ™ƒ

That said, I'll continue supporting my existing clients and hope to take on smaller projects a few months down the line once I've found my footing as a mum of two.

In the meantime, I'll continue sharing updates from projects currently in progress, and I look forward to sharing this next chapter with you all.

Concept → Progress

This Staverton project has been, without a doubt, one of my favourite projects to date.

Set within a beautiful 1930s home and with clients who share my love for modern country interiors, it has been a dream to work on. The property was stripped back to its bare bones, and we were involved in everything from doors, trims and ironmongery through to the overall aesthetic and finishing touches.

Seeing the designs gradually come to life has been incredibly rewarding.

The window treatments in this guest bedroom are a particular favourite of mine. The subtle trim on the curtains beautifully ties back to the Roman blind, adding that extra layer of detail that makes a scheme feel considered and complete.

It's often the smallest details that have the biggest impact ✨

A little different from my usual residential projects, but no less exciting! ✨

One of my favourite things about interior design is helping people create spaces that truly support the way they work and live.

This project is for a lovely local business owner whose fabric shop was in need of a refresh. Together, we took a step back and looked at how the entire shop could work better for both her and her customers. How we could create a journey that clearly displayed her services in a welcoming and tactile way.

We improved storage while focusing on dedicated zones for browsing, making, and consultations. Every decision was driven by practicality while staying true to the beautiful country inspired aesthetic at the heart of the business.

āœØļø Staverton Project āœØļø

One of the things I love most about creating visuals like this is helping clients see the finished feeling of a space before anything is purchased or installed.

In this scheme I’ve layered warm neutrals, classic silhouettes and soft textures to create a calm, timeless room that feels elegant but still comfortable for everyday living.

Symmetry, soft lighting and natural materials all work together to give the space that relaxed modern country feel.

Visuals like this are especially helpful in new builds or renovations where it can be difficult to imagine how a blank room will eventually look and feel

I've gotten to the point where there is no mistaking that our next little project is well underway 🩵

Turns out the biggest thing I have been creating this year isn’t an interior…

Baby Monson-Smith #2 is on the way. Our family is growing, and our little cheeky Chester is going to be a big brother. Were all so excited.

I’ll be taking maternity leave from June, so I only have limited availability left before then and will mainly be taking on smaller projects alongside my existing workload.

Thank you so much to all of my lovely clients for keeping me so busy. It means the world!

Modern country living room plans āœØļø

Here’s the vision for my own living room šŸ‘€ I’ve always loved colour and how one bold choice can set the tone for an entire space.

My signature approach is to start with calm, greyed off tones as the base, then layer in warm woods and touches of modern black to keep everything feeling balanced and timeless.

Real life though… I have a toddler, so new sofas aren’t exactly practical right now. Instead, I like to plan ahead and design the full scheme so I can slowly invest in the right pieces over time.

There’s something really satisfying about knowing what you’re working towards. Saving for that one special piece, adding beautiful accessories along the way, and letting your home evolve naturally.

Homes don’t have to be finished overnight. The slow build is part of the joy šŸ¤

Ever noticed how some paint colours just feel calm?

I’m always drawn to chalky, greyed off tones. The kind of colours that quietly change with the light throughout the day. They never feel loud or overpowering, just soft and timeless.

These are some of my favourite, go-to blue paint shades. Muted, relaxed and perfect for creating that modern country feel I love so much.

Which one is your favourite?

Nursery scheme for an East Facing room šŸŒ…

The aim was to create something soft, warm, and full of character so this space didn't feel like a typical new build.

I’ve layered in v-groove panelling, the sweetest brown gingham wallpaper, a warm neutral paint, natural wooden furniture, and a textured jute rug to ground everything.

It’s calm, cosy and timeless… proof that even the blankest new build room can feel full of charm with the right layers.

P.s My top tip to all those expecting... get a floor bed for your little one once they transition from next to me. We have used this exact bed for my little boy, and he was in it from 5m to now nearly 3 years and beyond. One investment. And a bed we can snuggle up together in.
