Our philosophy

We creatively and coherently translate our client’s practical requirements and aspirations into sophisticated, inviting interior designs and living spaces that reflect their personalities and lifestyles.

No matter what or where the project may be – town house, family residence, holiday home or business – we endeavour to surpass your expectations of service, creativity and quality of work.

We listen to our clients, so the designs we create for you are beautiful, considered, reflect your personality and, above all, achieve what you wanted.

That so many of our more recent projects are from existing clients or from personal recommendations, we trust, speaks for itself.

Latest news

“Nicky’s greatest attribute is that she is able to visualise fully what the room will look like on completion, something I personally find impossible. This means that she knows which colours work together well, the furnishings that will complement the scheme and importantly the correct size/proportions if you are buying new furniture. Nicky’s designs are also very original, as she is able to think of those little touches that make your room look very individual. I have thoroughly enjoyed transforming my home into one which is a true reflection of my personality and am grateful to Nicky for making it possible.”
