An interior designers weekend in Morocco
Morocco is a feast of inspiration for any creative traveller, from the food to the architecture to the people…it’s a country that whenever I visit I learn so much from. Our most recent visit was for a weekend in late May, we caught the fast ferry across the Gibraltar strait from Tarifa to Tangier. The […]
Jungle bedroom for an 8 year old boy
We’ve been super busy working on our big renovation project & getting that ready to Airbnb when we aren’t in Granada. That project has taken all of our energy leftover after daily life and work commitments but now it is almost there we can start thinking about smaller projects at our full-time home in Estepona. […]
A grand design for a child’s bedroom – project flashback

An interior designers day at the Alhambra Palace
The Alhambra palace is the most visited monument in the whole of Spain whilst also being one of the best preserved pieces of Islamic architecture in the world.

This Spanish townhouse on the Southern coast of Spain has been a holiday rental for some years but was in major need of some updating. I used the traditional base of marble, terracotta and white paint to build a tropical rustic vibe for the house that perfectly suits its 5 minute walk proximity to the […]
2019 Goals – 90 Day Progress
After attending a goal setting workshop at Wizu workspace Leeds with the brilliant Kat Horrocks (listen to her podcast if you don’t already it’s fab!) I completed a goal setting workbook for 2019 which really made me think about what I was focussing my time on and what I wanted to gain from life/work/myself. At […]
Making everyday items in your home a design feature
While we can perfectly plan and design a room to look beautiful, homely, comfortable and stylish, there are some everyday items that you wouldn’t want to remove, and thanks to some simple tweaks you can make the design feature in your home too. My personal pet hate in a room is a T.V, it needs […]
Interior Design Project – Barbers Shop
This industrial barbers shop project was one of the first commercial projects I took on and remains one of my favourites. The inspiration for the design came from 90s factory conversions that paired industrial features with bold uses of primary colours. The space was a shell when we took it on, a shop unit in […]
