Realising that it is easier to make these choices in the comfort of your own home, I arrive with a fantastic array of designer fabric books. Time is spent getting to know you - your lifestyle, taste and budget. From a simple linen Roman Blind to more elaborate curtains and pelmets, I will happily give advice and work with you to achieve the perfect look for your home.
The complete service includes measuring and designing to the final installation and hanging, and those important finishing touches to complement the room with beautiful throws and bespoke cushions, window seats and headboards. With a background in commercial and residential Estate Agency in Central London I became very interested in buildings and interiors.

Drawing Room
Report
This gorgeous drawing room in a brand new house in Midhurst was a blank grey canvas. We chose curtains in beautiful embroidered Sanderson Angelique, this gave some gorgeous colours to work with and the flat padded pelmets really show off the fabric. Colefax wool and linen stripes were used to recover the sofas and chairs.
Art Curtains
Report
I love looking at clients artwork, whether from Children's nursery painting to valuable paintings it is great to try and incorporate them into the scheme. This lovely lady was the main point of interest in this otherwise rather bland hallway and Romo Black Kansai Velvet Curtains really worked well with her.
Curtain Pelmets
Report
In this beautiful new home in Midhurst, West Sussex with lots of tall windows, pelmets and curtains was definitely the best option so we decided to have some fun with them. Choosing stunning fabrics from the Jane Churchill Atmosphere Collections and less expensive co-ordinating plains for the curtains, this was a more economical way to use great fabrics which in no way compromised the style and final finish.
