Full interior design from concept to completion

  • Develop a cohesive vision that sets the tone for your space, guided by the design brief. This includes mood boards, a curated colour palette, and high-level spatial planning to establish the foundation of the design.

  • Building on your feedback, this stage explores aesthetics, function, and spatial planning in more depth. You'll receive initial concepts tailored to your space, including mood boards, 2D plan sketches, and early ideas for FF&E (Furniture, Fixtures and Equipment).

  • Refine the concept into a fully realised design. Incorporating your feedback throughout, we’ll produce detailed 2D floor plans, elevations, and a final FF&E proposal, ready for procurement.

  • Source quality materials and pieces that align with the creative vision. Every detail is considered to ensure cohesion, craftsmanship, and design integrity.

  • Oversee the implementation to ensure the design is delivered to the highest standard. We work closely with contractors and artisans to bring everything together seamlessly, right through to the final installation.

The transformation has been incredible

“Laura was pivotal in the redecoration of our home, offering invaluable advice on colour schemes for every room. She made what could have been a stressful process feel easy and even enjoyable, helping us refine our ideas and explaining the reasoning behind her suggestions. We learned so much from her about the art and science of colour along the way.  One of the unexpected bonuses was Laura’s ability to act as a diplomatic mediator when my wife and I couldn’t quite agree! Thanks to her guidance, we chose colours that work beautifully in each space, and the transformation has been incredible. We couldn’t be happier with how it’s all come together.”

— John, Private Client in Cobham, Surrey

How Does Interior Design work?

1 Creative Direction

Creative Direction is the foundation for the entire project. Great care is taken to assess the clients’ needs and wishes and to develop the vision for the project ahead.

Laura starts by setting the scope of the project and assessing design preferences. It is important that every member of the household is included in this phase so that everyone’s voices are heard. When children are included in this phase they feel a sense of ownership over their built environment, and everyone can share in that joy.

If required, an Architectural review will be completed. Laura will work alongside the architect to create the master plan.

In this stage Laura will develop the design vision, style direction and spatial flow, and define the budget for the project.

2 Concept Design

 Concept design takes the project further, defining what the client is looking for and what is possible within architectural restraints.

  •  Concept design includes:

  • Space planning (scaled 2D sketches)

  • Mood boards, materials and finishes

  • Furniture, fixtures and equipment concepts, with statement pieces presented

  • Indicative costings

In the detailed design phase Laura is confident in the preferences of the client and is able to fully realise finished interior designs using technical tools and industry contacts available to her.
