Frequently asked questions.
-
Hiring a professional designer provides you with a wealth of knowledge, and an eye for detail that seamlessly brings together a well-designed space that is unique to your aesthetic and brief.
I endeavour to take the stress away, removing the decision fatigue and keeping you true to your vision. I also take an objective approach to your space, and challenge you to consider all options that align with the overall aesthetic.
-
My signature style is characterized by a harmonious blend of timeless elegance and contemporary design. With a focus on creating spaces that exude comfort and sophistication, I strive to achieve the perfect balance between functionality and aesthetics. My design approach involves seamlessly incorporating natural elements, such as wood and stone, to bring a sense of warmth and serenity into each space, along with incorporating unique textures, patterns, and pops of muted colour to add depth and personality to every room, adding layers upon layers of texture.
-
I can assist with projects of all sizes, from cosmetic adjustments and furniture procurement for a singular space to a new build design and set of selections.
-
We begin with an initial design consultation which helps me to gain a better understanding of your project. From there, you are then presented with a comprehensive design brief which includes your initial budget, spacial planning and design concepts (aesthetic and colour scheme).
Once you are happy to proceed, I begin developing the design, finalising your material selections, procuring furniture and furnishings, liaising with trades and bringing your dreams to life.
-
Projects can vary is scope and size, so the timelines for projects can vary greatly.
A small scale renovation can take any where from eight weeks to twelve weeks, and a new build can be any where from six months plus, depending on external contributing factors.
-
Honestly, it is most beneficial to get a designer on board from the beginning and the moment you decide to build or renovate.
This allows a complete design and consistent aesthetic throughout your spaces, and ensures that every one is on the same page.
-
I highly value you input in the design process, as this guides me within the parameters of the project.
Some clients wish to be fully invested and there for every step of the way, although I can also take your brief and complete a set of selections and design suggestions for you to approve if you wish to be completely guided by me.
-
Absolutely! I love to liaise and work alongside your contractors to ensure that the interior design aligns with your overall vision for your project.
Whilst I don’t manage the build/renovation process (this is the responsibility of your builder/project manager), you can feel certain that I will take the stress away.
-
I typically work with clients that embrace and align with a healthy and sustainable lifestyle, and gravitate towards organic, muted palettes.
I work with middle to higher end budgets, and can assist in guiding you through creating the spaces of your dreams.
-
I pride myself in providing a personal design service and oversee all details relating to your project, which means I typically take on only a select few clients at a time depending on the scope of works.
-
I am located in Albury/Wodonga and can serve the surrounding areas, as well as I can offer e-design solutions for clients based anywhere in Australia.
-
All projects are charged at a fixed-fee based on the scope of works and brief (unless an hourly rate is requested), allowing me to communicate this up front.
Please note, that should the scope of works/brief change substantially, an hourly rate may be charged should you go over the pre-quoted number of hours.
-
After completing a number of questions around your style and project brief, we will meet to discuss your design ideas, budget and lifestyle in further detail.
I highly recommend in considering how you wish to use the space, timelines, and how involved you wish to be along with any other questions you may have.
I will also explain how we can work together and what to expect during the process.
