Affordable Decorating & Design Ideas

To me, decorating & design is more than a piece of furniture or an attractive fabric, it's about combining the 'rhythm of your daily life' with colour, form and light to bring together the unique atmosphere of your home.

Over the years, I have learnt that in my business, it is not just about choosing colours, fabrics or furniture, it is about getting to know my client personally and being able to give them an individual style that suits their needs and lifestyle.

If the ever-increasing world of decorating options gets too confusing for you, let our decorator service, steer you through the myriad of choice to create your own personal sanctuary.



What is a Colour Consultant?

Colour Consultants specialise in developing colour schemes for commercial, exteriors, interiors, residential and retail properties, by understanding colour and how it affects humans in their day-to-day environments.

A colour consultant is able to support their clients by reflecting the latest look or trend in colours, colour schemes and decorative painted finishes.


What is an Interior Decorator?

An Interior Decorator works with the existing interior space and, with the client develops a coordinated look for a room, home or office space.

They can specify colour & fabrics, flooring, furniture, lighting to produce a tailored environment that is aesthetically pleasing, efficient and comfortable to your purpose and needs.


What is an Interior Designer?

An Interior Designer is a professional that plans and details commercial and residential building interiors.

Their main purpose is to design and plan efficient living and working environments by organising building services, furniture and surface fixtures, space allocations and traffic flow. Interior Designers can custom design or specify colour and fabrics, flooring, furniture, lighting and wall partitions.

An interior designer can work with architects at the design stage and can often recommend trades people in the areas of custom cabinetry, kitchen and bathroom construction.


Why do I need one?

A colour consultant, interior decorator or designer provide specialised, objective support in the areas of aesthetics, flow and space - freeing the client to oversee the project objectively.

They save time, anxiety over the decision-making process and money, whilst adding value to a fit-out with their experience, flair and professional touch.

In each case, they can recommend custom made interior products like bathroom fittings and fixtures, blinds, curtains, furniture, paints, sofas, tap ware etc, from leading national and international suppliers.
