Interior Designer & Engineer
I have always had a passion for science and creativity. Growing up in the Caribbean, with its diverse range of colours, architecture and aesthetic influences from both eastern and western cultures, together form an integral part of my unique design language. With a natural affinity towards Scandinavian and Classic Minimalism, my approach is heavily calculative and utilitarian, with a pared-back palette for clean lines and muted colours. Meticulously selected pieces of furniture, furnishings and lighting are quietly introduced to produce unique, coherent and visually striking interiors.
An inescapable drive for design compelled me to renounce a career as Art teacher and Engineering lecturer to return to study. After qualifying in Interior Design from London Metropolitan University, I became a Home Colour Consultant for Fired Earth. Following my role as a Bathroom Designer for Porcelanosa, I was invited to re-join Fired Earth as their London Regional Kitchen and Bathroom Designer. By this time, the disconnect between presenting achievable design plans and what was being so badly built was clear. Determined to bridge this concept-to-reality gap for my clients, I consolidated knowledge and experience to establish my own practice. Collaborating with other like-minded industry specialists and building contractors, we deliver on Bespoke Residential Designs and Turnkey Project Management.
Combining an effective blend of furniture, lighting, materials and colours the ordinary is transformed into Extraordinary interiors.
Creating Beautiful Homes
What makes Design & Conker different is, as your designer, I personally look after the entire interior planning and design specification process. Collaborating with professional contractors unforeseen site issues requiring quickly resolves, with updated drawings, are provided. Monitoring design implementations for accuracy and quality standards save client valuable time and money. This requires interior design experience, precision project planning and strategic time management - long before the builders begin their scope of works. This may require a new phase planning structure but, in the end, all interiors look coherent and connected.
