The Weekly Edit

This week has been full of dramatic transformations (and yes, I still get excited every time we reveal a 'before and after'!), but today I wanted to share something a bit more personal...


You see, what fascinates me most about design is how every space holds its own story. This week alone, I've watched:

• A powder room become a jewel box that makes my client smile every time she opens the door

• A dining space ready itself for years of family gatherings

• A bedroom transform into a dreamed-of sanctuary


But the real magic? It's in those quiet moments: when a client's eyes light up seeing their perfect wallpaper in different lights, finding exactly the right finish after careful consideration and understanding how each space will transform daily life. Because while beautiful spaces matter, it's the stories they'll hold that truly make a house feel like home.



1. The Story Behind Every Space

Have you ever wondered why some spaces just 'feel right'? It's because they tell a story - your story.


This week's powder room transformation wasn't just about stunning wallpaper and copper finishes. It was about creating a jewel box that makes guests smile and homeowners proud.


The magic happens when design meets daily life. When that 'just a powder room' becomes a conversation starter, a tiny luxury in your everyday routine. Those 'aha' moments when we successfully blend your style and your room so that you love walking through your space, pausing to appreciate those little details that make every day feel special.


2. Pattern Mix

Mixing Patterns Confidently🎨


Pattern Play: Client Space Reveal


How do we mix patterns in a room? This recent project reveals the secrets! It's all about balance, scale, and confidence. Here we've combined tones from the artwork in a range of florals and plains to create a space that's both bold and harmonious, fun and inviting.


Pro Tip: Start with a dominant pattern, then layer in complementary designs at different scales. Adjust cushion sizes and features such as piping or flanges for interest.



Need help mastering the mix? That's what our styling consultations are for!


 3. Living In The Details

You know what fascinates me most about design? It's those tiny details that most people might overlook, but they're actually everything.


I noticed something beautiful during this project - it's not just about the dramatic 'after' photos (though I admit, they're stunning!). What really makes our team so happy is seeing how our thoughtful designs and touches weave into our clients' daily lives making each morning brighter and every evening more peaceful.


You see, while we love creating beautiful spaces, what truly matters to us is how you'll live in them. A bedroom isn't just a room to photograph - it's where you begin and end every day. Those moments matter.

Design Tip

Layer textures at different heights in a room - from plush velvets at seat level to subtle wallpapers above. It creates beautiful depth without overwhelming the space, and looks even more stunning as the seasons change.


Excited About...

The subtle shift to autumn - there's something so refreshing about these changing seasons, even if our summer barely made an appearance!
