Colour, quite possibly, is the most important attribute which threads all design elements together. With over 20 years experience as a Colour Consultant, I advise on paint colours, textural finishes and surface covering materials. Recommendations are appropriate for the room's purpose and offer years of wearability. Working with superior quality paints, fabrics, wallpapers and other interior decorative specialists, these 'cosmetic design' proposals are effective, resilient and responsibly sustainable.
Interior Planning
♦ I have builders. Do I need a designer?
Yes you do.
A qualified interior designer understands the fundamentals of space, ergonomics, surface materials and colours and, of how to manipulate these in tandem to get aesthetic results.
♦ What is their role in my project?
A designer will create beautiful, functional and user-specific concepts for living. Similar to that of an architect or builder, an interior designer's role is a specific area of expertise.
♦ How does it work?
We discuss your brief and I collate relevant site information. New floor plans and designs are created and presented for approval. These are then translated into annotated working drawings and detailed design specifications for installation.
♦ How much does it cost?
On-site Design: From £2000 per room
Online E-Design: From £1000 per room
Full Interior Design: 10% to 20% of the total project budget
Specialised in designing kitchens and bathrooms, I also spearhead on Turnkey Residential Projects. We start by establishing your expectations, budgets and timelines before outlining my recommended services, fees and the next steps forward. Following the acceptance of a quotation, we meet to further discuss the project and carry out a survey of the respective rooms. Documented site findings are used to develop new spatial plans and photorealistic design visuals. These drawings illustrate why the design proposals are most suitable to your space and provides an opportunity to make changes before the building works start. This entire process gives you insight, information and thus full autonomy on your project. It also saves valuable time, energy and money to rectify inefficient installations.
What Is In Your Design Pack?
Dimensioned and annotated floor plans and elevation drawings.
Clear instructions as they relate to specific design installations.
Any bespoke furniture design specifications and dimensional drawings.
Computer Generated Images (CGI's) of the room taken from various angles.
A list of recommended furniture, furnishings, surface finishes, samples and mood boards.
This Interior Design Service is also available remotely as E-Designs and follows a similar format as the On-site Design process.
Design Management
♦ What is design management?
It's a professional design implementation monitoring service - carried out by an experienced, on-site interior designer.
♦ Why choose this service?
It gives you full insight into the quality and accuracy of your design installations. This means you are always in the know and can make informed decisions at any point in the project.
♦ How does it work?
I make ongoing checks to the design installations. Following regular site meetings with the contracted teams, clients are updated and advised accordingly. This process ensures that the design specification standards are upheld - at all times.
♦ How much does it cost?
Room or Project specific.
Ranging from 10% to 20% of the total project budget.
Managing any renovation project is not for the faint hearted. It is hard work negotiating with the trade, solutionising, communicating industry jargon with building contractors, and coordinating procurement deliveries to meet with installation timelines. As an experienced on and off site designer, I can help you through the entire concept planning and design installation process. Collaborating with other like-minded industry specialists, I am available for continuous design advice, drawing modifications and innovative solutions as site conditions change. Working alongside building contractors, I act on behalf of my client as their Liaison Representative to keep the project on its trajectory.
I engage only a few large projects simultaneously. This means I am always in control and readily available to my clients with updated information.
