Is Hiring an Interior Designer Really Worth It?

It can be a difficult decision to take on an interior designer if you haven’t ever worked with one before. To help clarify how I can be a welcome support in your life, I’ve outlined below how my expertise, knowledge, creativity, efficiency and savvy budgeting will help deliver the home transformation you crave, without the stress: 

  • Having the right professional to work with is like having the best life partner (for the period of the project, at least!) – they’ve got your back 

  • With an expert on side the risk of getting decisions wrong is greatly reduced, as is the cost of making expensive mistakes. In fact, the cost of hiring a pro can be outweighed by the savings made in avoiding expensive mistakes

  • It’s a collaborative experience – I won’t railroad you into doing it ‘my way’.  This isn’t my home, it’s yours.  Instead, I’ll help you identify your own design style and support this with my technical knowledge of good design, my innate eye for aesthetics and my obsession with sourcing considered materials and objects

  • I’ll bring a fresh lens to your project and introduce you to some new, clever ideas to maximise the functionality, flow and enjoyment of your space

  • You won’t need to worry about budgeting and planning - a London School of Economics and University of Durham graduate will be doing that for you… me!

  • I take on the hassle – the research, the planning, the technical drawings, the sourcing, the (often boring) admin – and only involve you in the fun parts and the important decisions

  • I have resources that make the process slick, such as spatial planning software, relationships with reliable suppliers and an understanding and passion for colour science, the effects of light and the impact of interior design on wellbeing

  • The end result is a cohesive look that increases both your happiness and your property’s value
