Services

Beyond her core interior design service, Samantha also offers interior styling – where you can benefit from her design expertise and ideas as part of a one-off consultation.

Interior Design

The heart of what I do: creating beautifully liveable homes through bespoke interior design, followed by end-to-end project management that makes the process as easy as you need it to be.

Whether I’m transforming an entire home, or helping you solve a few problem rooms, I firmly believe that to create a home that fits your lifestyle, I need to understand you: what you love, how you live and how you plan to use the home (as well as your ballpark budget). That’s why all my projects start with a complimentary one-hour consultation.

Focus on the fundamentals

From there, I create a project brief and proposal, often starting with mood boards that help you pick a style and overall feel you like. Once that’s agreed, I then focus on two fundamental aspects of great design: spatial planning, which is all about making sure you use the space you have in the best possible way, and lighting, which really shapes the mood.

As much input as you want

I’ll also develop a comprehensive project plan so you know exactly what you can expect, when. You can have as much, or as little, input as you want, from approving overall designs to making specific decisions about textiles, paints and wallpapers. We can even arrange joint shopping trips to source art and accessories.

Managing suppliers and contractors

To make the design a reality, I'll appoint and oversee specialist suppliers and skilled craftspeople, both to work on site at your home and if we're commissioning bespoke furniture or joinery – something that I find can really make your home distinctive. Of course, if you have a trusted team of architects, builders and tradespeople, I’m also more than happy to work alongside them.

Samantha was super to work with from our initial meeting to our now completed home. She has a great eye for detail, she is fun to work with as well as maintaining a professional service. Her team are reliable, hardworking and definitely took great care of our belongings and home.

Interior Styling

Focused, professional design input for a fixed fee: a great way to kickstart your project or get some new ideas to change up your home.

Looking for inspiration to start your home design project? Or in need of some fresh thinking to re-energise a job that’s stalled? My Interior Styling service could be just what you need.

For a fixed fee, you have four hours of my time and professional input to focus on your design challenges. Though I can do it online, it works best – and is most fun – in person at your home. We’ll work through some ideas on the iPad, then get hands-on rearranging furniture and trying alternative looks and styles.

Typically, we can cover up to 4 rooms in a consultation; as well as suggesting instant ways to make better use of space, I can propose changes to décor, colours and fabrics that you can then take forward. I can source items on your behalf,  or we can even arrange a personal shopping trip to help you pick the right pieces (at the right price – I’m a happy haggler!)

And once you’ve got the ideas, I’ll also give you a complimentary copy of my “Essential Home Design Guide”, which is full of tips and some handy tools to help you apply some professional interior design techniques in your own project.

Samantha was recommended to us by a friend and she helped us with the interior design in our current home in Berkshire. With our second home in Mallorca, we were delighted how she pulled the property together working with some of our existing and new furniture and making it feel homely.
