DESIGN OBJECTIVE
To turn a dark and black dominated interior, into a light and bright space, with a glamorous and sophisicated coastal vibe.
SOLUTION
As with all projects, I started with a mood board, showcasing a new colour palette of white, pale timbers and gold accents. The new interior was achieved by replacing the original black curtains with light sheers. We started with the addition of a white grand piano as focal point in the home’s entrance, accompanied by new art. The dark timber floors were given a lift with a beautiful new area rug in the living room, and the dining room was transformed with a new timber dining table with gold legs, and upholstered dining chairs.

DESIGN OBJECTIVE
To create a unique and memorable interior for an inner-city BnB that would generate repeat bookings and set a new standard for short-term holiday accommodation in Newcastle.
SOLUTION
By combining classic and luxurious pieces, with eclectic and quirky accessories, I created a space that became one of the most in demand BnB’s in The Hunter. Attention to detail was key to the success of this project, creating luxurious and inviting spaces and leaving no stone unturned with regards to anticipating guests’ needs.
Project: Residential
DESIGN OBJECTIVE
To update a tired and dark interior, where natural light is limited and the budget was tight.
SOLUTION
Working closely with Josh from Painting by Josh, we created a grey specifically for this project for all interior walls. A cool tone was needed to reflect light and add a sense of space. New hybrid flooring was laid in a wide plank which made the interior much brighter without the need for removing walls or adding windows. Finally, the styling touches brought the new interior together for this beautiful family home.

DESIGN OBJECTIVE
To replace the existing, dated bathroom with a light and bright new bathroom with a modern aesthetic that suited the rest of the home’s interior. The client wanted the toilet to be discrete, so as not to see it when you enter the bathroom.
SOLUTION
A soft, timeless colour palette of light blue and white was selected with a mixture of textures, timber and brushed gold accents. The feature wall behind the bath features a square tile, with multiple shades of blue, playfully bouncing light across the room and adding a luxurious focal point to the bathroom. A curved partition wall was added to give privacy to the toilet, whilst still allowing light to filter through the room from the window above the bath.

Merewether
DESIGN OBJECTIVE
To create a luxurious, spa-like experience in the large ensuite off the master bedroom. The inclusion of a large spa was a crucial part of the design for this hard working client who loves a long soak at the end of the day.
SOLUTION
Whilst keeping the footprint of the ensuite the same as the original ensuite, we were able to save on costly plumbing expenses and splurge on luxurious amenities. The partition wall screening the toilet was removed and replaced with floor to ceiling fluted glass, creating both privacy and light-filled spaciousness in the ensuite. A walk-in shower created more room for showering and a custom painted wall-hung double vanity, accented with twin arch shaving cabinets and a feature fluted glass wall sconce elevated the space to one of sheer luxury.
