DESIGN DAYS
Lots of people don't want or need an interior designer - preferring the fun and satisfaction of doing it themselves. But what happens if you get stuck? Where to start? How to finish off? When is it worth splashing out (& when isn't it)? How to tackle a tricky space? How to break out of a rut? How to make the most of what you've already got? Why hasn't it worked?
Design Days are bite sized advice that can help with just these kinds of problems. I'll spend a whole or part day with you, helping you work through your interior design dilemmas, offering advice, know-how and ideas to suit your budget. I'll follow up with a clear set of recommendations, making it easy to act on what we've discussed.

Architects and builders have suggested an unaffordable 'vanity project' extension...
