My dream material or product to work with
Antique textiles, without question. There is nothing that brings the same warmth, history, and irreplaceable character to a room as a piece of fabric that has been somewhere and done something. I find them everywhere, markets, dealers, trips abroad, and they find their way into almost every project I do.
My favourite hack as an interior designer
The details. People spend carefully on sofas and floors and then rush the finishing. But it is the pillows, the lampshades, the artwork, the objects on a shelf, those are what actually make a room feel complete or not. I tell every client: do not treat the accessories as an afterthought. That last layer is where a room either comes alive or falls flat. Invest in it, take your time with it, and get it right.
The one thing I always tell my clients
A home should feel like you, not like a designer. My job is to listen first and design second. The most successful interiors I have created came from understanding how a client actually lives, not how they imagine they might.
Trend I love and one I avoid
A trend I love: Color. It is the single most transformative tool in any interior and the most underused. People are often afraid of it, but color used with care and intention, the right combinations, the right depth, the right light, can change everything about how a room feels. I have spent my entire career working with color and I am still discovering what it can do. A trend to avoid: The disappearance of color from interiors. So many beautiful rooms have been quietly flattened by the fear of committing to something. Neutral does not have to mean colorless, and restraint does not have to mean absence. A room can be calm and still have warmth, depth, and personality. I always find myself hoping people will be a little braver.
