Nautical theme is a style often associated with a beach like environment: pool houses, casual spaces, southern or even common in boy's rooms. Many people that like it have a hard time incorporating it in a sophisticated way.

I love the New Year as it is the fresh start to new beginnings. It is a time when I probably feel the strongest and most motivated and fully energized to make plans and follow through with them.

One of the most frequent enquiries and phone calls I receive are for wall colours, yet I always tell my clients colour on the wall is actually always the SECOND thing I select, not the first.

Pink is actually one of my personal favourite colours! Unfortunately, i don't get to use it a lot in designs as it is mostly a very feminine look. Even in children spaces, it tends to be a colour used more for younger children but why?

Basements are usually the space where the entire family congregates to either lounge, play or have fun. It is usually an open space that needs to suit the needs of multiple ages, interests and functions how to separate them?

One of the most questioned recommendations I face when designing for clients is the need for accessories! Clients always ask me if they really need accessories? How much of a difference will it make etc.
