As a designer I adore beautiful design, but functionality is also of critical importance. My focus is to work with you to create a kitchen that is visually inspiring as well as being a joy to work in. I believe this is my greatest strength and how I think I'm different to many other designers.

If all you require is a design, I can provide this or if you prefer to have the entire project managed from design to installation, then I recommend Kitchen Studio, NZ's most trusted kitchen brand. If on the other hand you prefer your own cabinet makers/installers, I can work with you to help achieve your vision.

How does your bedroom make you feel? Is it a haven of tranquility, a place you can feel at peace, or is it simply a place to sleep? For too may of us, the master bedroom is hidden from guests and so there's a tendency for the bedroom to be overlooked from a design perspective. So why not create your own special sanctuary? Let's start by removing clutter!

The tidying guru Marie Condo advises that if an item doesn't bring you joy, dispose of it. So if you have any clothes you've not worn in the last 12 months, perhaps it's time to have a clear out?

If you can't bring yourself to dispose of an old favourite, the alternative is to organise your wardrobe space. Who wouldn't want a beautifully organised wardrobe/vanity space? The design can be understated and discreet, or as a joyful display of fashion.

So many more people are working from home nowadays, and while this sounds ideal situation for many, it does have its challenges. The biggest is separating your home from the office, so you can focus on work when you need to. A computer in the corner of the living room or bedroom just won't cut it!

Having a dedicated space where you can work or study will make you so much more productive.

If you love watching movies on the big screen, with surround sound, then why not recreate that experience at home with your very own media room.

After all a giant flat screen TV tends to dominate a room and doesn't suit everyone. While a room dedicated to entertainment, leaves the living room for simply relaxing or socialising with family and friends.

This is an area of huge potential, rather than using your garage as a storage area (a place to hide junk), why not transform it into something more useable?

There are so many inspirational ways in which you can use your garage space, for example You could convert your garage into a studio, craft workshop, a gym, an office or even organise it as a proper home for your car.
