Before & After

You’ve Found Your
Design Wingwoman

I wasn’t always an interior designer—but I’ve always been obsessed with space. Think childhood floorplan sketches, stolen real estate catalogues, and daydreams of rooms that told stories.

Somewhere along the way, I tried to squeeze myself into the conventional mould—chasing career paths and making life choices that looked good on paper but felt like someone else’s idea of success. Spoiler: it didn’t stick.

P.S. Word on the street (a.k.a. from several lovely clients) is that if I say something’s cool, give it a year—everyone (and their dog) will want it.

Fast forward through a soul-sapping stint in the EU (my undergrad was in politics), a subsquent detour into film, fashion, and advertising, and a master’s in the psychology of design—and I finally gave in to the pull of interiors. Not just any interiors, but the kind that feel like a creative awakening.

Now, as a Brighton-based interior designer, I help people like you design spaces that feel like freedom: bold, story-rich, and wildly personal.

Because I’ve made the leap from trying to please others to living creatively unchained, I know exactly how to guide you through your own transformation—with vision, empathy, and a healthy dose of rebellion—one room at a time.

How Much To Make The
Magic Happen?

Rebel Rooms follows a phased process—like a choose-your-own-adventure, but with moodboards and floorplans.

Prices per room start at £900, with the full design journey typically coming in at £2,000–£2,500, depending on how many hats your space needs to wear—or how deep you want to dive into the design rabbit hole.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Interior design is such a personal thing. It's vital to find a designer that you vibe with visually, as well as personally. It's that initial "click" that means so much from a project management perspective. Our initial consultation is where I get familiar with you, and your hopes for the project. Based on our conversation, I will also walk you through my process and what I think the best approach to your project would be, so you know exactly what to expect if we decide to make magic together.
