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 […]
A grand design for a child’s bedroom – project flashback
Sometimes you have to stop and look back at what you’ve achieved, when working as an interior designer (just as in many industries). Those little Instagram memory reminders stopped me in my tracks this morning as it popped up with the wonderfully playful project I worked on for Grand Designs Live back in 2018. This […]
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.

5 Tips for making travel more sustainable
I’m completely conflicted when it comes to travel, air travel in particular. My favourite thing to spend my money on is a trip somewhere new or somewhere I’ve been many times before but love (looking at you Norway), it’s always been this way for me. When I got my teenage partying days out of the […]
Modern Rustic Airbnb in Spain
Last year I completed an epic remote interior design project, a 3 bedroomed townhouse with 2 bathrooms & a garden. The property is used as a holiday let so all planning, budgeting and shopping lists needed to be completed remotely…from the U.K…for a property in Spain!

Holiday Let Spain – Interior Design Project
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.
