How to work with me

We'll start with a conversation about your goals, challenges, and vision. From there, I normally recommend an initial home consultation so I can recommend how we might work together on your affordable interior design project.

Not sure where to start?

The Home Consultation is the best place to begin. It’s a standalone service or the perfect first step. If you’re considering working with me longer term this is a great opportunity to see how we work together before making any commitment longer term. I offer virtual or hands-on support services depending on where you're based. I can offer a combination of the services below depending on your needs.

I will help you make smart, intentional investments that avoid unnecessary costs. Instead of rushing into expensive renovations or unnecessary replacements, we’ll work together to assess what works, what can be improved, and where your budget will make the biggest impact. Every decision we make will add functionality, style, and value to your home.

Take the first step towards your home transformation

Whether you simply need a few ideas in a Love your Home Consultation, or want my ongoing support and guidance throughout your home improvement project - I’m here to make the process easy and enjoyable - offering sustainable design solutions that keep money in your pocket, and waste out of landfill. 

Let’s chat and explore your options, and figure out the best next steps for your home. It’s the perfect chance to get your questions answered, learn more about how I work, and see if we’re a good fit.
