I work with busy families and professionals who are renovating or furnishing their home and want to get it right, without the stress.
My clients aren’t looking for shortcuts. They want a home that feels tailored, functional and well thought through, without needing to manage every detail themselves. They want a designer who can lead the process with clarity, experience and good judgement.
That’s where I come in.
I offer a high-level, end-to-end interior design service that’s customised to your needs and lifestyle. No generic packages. No DIY downloads. Just considered, professional design support, at the right level for your project.
Thoughtful, tailored design that brings clarity, function and style to everyday living.
Interior Design Services
Start with a Design Call
Every project begins with a free 20-minute design call.
It’s a straightforward conversation where you can tell me about your plans, priorities, and timescales, and I can explain the best next steps. There’s no obligation - it’s simply a way to clarify what you need and how I might be able to help.
Next, Book a Consultation
If you’d like to move forward, the next step is a 90-minute to two-hour paid consultation.
This is a working session where I take a full brief, we discuss your goals in detail, and I can offer initial advice on the best approach for your project. After the consultation, I’ll prepare tailored recommendations and a proposal for how I can support you.
If you choose to go ahead, the consultation fee is credited against your first design invoice.
Questions About My Full Interior Design Services
-
Ideally, at the start of the planning phase – around the same time as hiring your architect. Early involvement means I can help shape the design from the beginning, ensuring the layout, lighting and materials work beautifully for the way you want to live.
That said, if you already have planning permission in place or are partway through the process, I can still help. The earlier I’m involved, the more I can help you make confident, informed decisions.
-
Yes. I’m happy to collaborate with your architect, contractor or wider project team. Good communication between everyone involved is key to a smooth renovation, and I’ll make sure the interior design side stays clear, coordinated and aligned with what’s happening on site.
-
That’s entirely up to you. Some clients like to be very hands-on and collaborative throughout, while others are happy to share their vision at the start and leave me to take care of the detail. I’ll tailor the process to suit you, while making sure you're kept informed and confident at every stage.
Key design decisions will always be shared with you for sign-off, and I’ll guide you through the process with clear timelines, so nothing feels rushed or overwhelming.
-
At the start of the project, we’ll talk through your priorities and what’s realistic for your space and goals. I’ll help you make smart choices about where to invest and where to save, so your budget is used wisely and your home still feels considered, cohesive and personal.
-
It depends on the size and scope of your project, but I’ll give you a clear timeline after our initial consultation. The design phase typically takes a few months, especially if building work is involved but I’ll guide you through it step by step to keep things feeling organised and manageable throughout.
”Engaging Alison to help us through a substantial remodel and renovation of our family home was the best decision we ever made! Over the course of 16 months she transformed our home into a practical and beautiful space, and we are thrilled with the results!
Before commencing the project, Alison made sure we had a budget in place and provided advice on where to spend and save. As an interior designer she made sure the ‘bones’ of each room were perfect: layout, lighting, electrics, flooring, and cabinetry. Thanks to her expertise we avoided making costly mistakes and future-proofed our home by making good design decisions that will stand the test of time.
Alison created beautiful and imaginative interior schemes for everywhere from the bijou downstairs cloakroom to our large open plan kitchen-dining room and master bedroom. Alison was meticulous in her attention to detail and brilliant at sourcing everything we needed for the project.
On a personal level, Alison was lovely to work with: extremely personable, professional, and very focused on delivering an amazing result. Indeed, she really went above and beyond to help us create a lovely home, and we cannot recommend her services highly enough.”
