I’m a proud Norwegian whose been in the UK since the Spice Girls dominated our Walkmans. My style is British country with all the light, quality and practicality of the Scandinavian design I grew up with and love. My parents brought a (big) slice of the West Coast with them when we moved here, and I’ve kept that with me.

All my projects start with understanding who you are, the experience you want to create and developing the story you want to tell. I will share the excitement of the build journey with you and take care of the component parts so you can focus on what you do best.

Want someone to validate your ideas and bring an expert design perspective? That’s me. I will be your biggest supporter, and I cannot wait to see your dreams realised!

Residential Projects

Your home should set the tone how you want each day to start and finish. It’s also the backdrop for entertaining, family moments and where you negotiate the practicalities of life. It’s a physical reflection of your personality and values.

Whether you are creating a home for life, or investing gradually to meet your needs I’d love to hear all about it!

Commercial Projects

Unique commercial projects are where I excel. When a really interesting one comes along I do a proper happy dance!

I’ll interrogate your values and business goals to design a space that your clients and staff don’t want to leave.

That’s my benchmark for success. Every detail will work hard to earn its place and drive your brand.

A bit about me

I’m pretty no-nonsense and easy to deal with. I’ll tell you what I think and once I’m working on something you’ve got my laser focus on all the details.

I’m fuelled by coffee and easily won over with a croissant. My passion is renovation and interior design, but I’ve got hard won architectural qualifications (and experience) for when we want to roll out the big guns and knock walls around or add new elements.

Working Together

You’ve got a vision for the end result and a Pinterest board full of amazing images. Not quite sure where to go from there? Worried about getting your money’s worth? That’s normal and a very good place to start a conversation.

I’ll be your design BFF from initial ideas through to lighting the candles and arranging the flowers when the builders dust has settled. If you’re waking up at night with a great idea but no-one to tell, I’m at the end of a Whatsapp (in the morning).
