With over 30 years of experience in the industry, I am a qualified colour consultant and interior decorator offering professional advice for both interior and exterior projects across the Central Coast. I specialise in colour consultancy and the soft furnishings side of design, helping clients create cohesive, harmonious spaces through carefully considered colour palettes, fabrics, window treatments, furniture, and decorative finishes.
While I do not provide structural design services such as kitchen or bathroom layouts, my expertise lies in transforming interiors through thoughtful styling and attention to detail. I believe it is the layering of colour, texture, and furnishings that truly brings a home to life.
Whether you are building, renovating, updating your curtains, or simply applying a fresh coat of paint, I will recommend a beautiful and appropriate colour palette that enhances and brings out the best in your home.
If you’re unsure which colour to choose between a few options — or don’t know where to begin — I am here to guide you with confidence, clarity, and expertise.
Classic and eclectic interior design combines timeless elegance with personal expression. It blends traditional foundations — balanced layouts, refined colours, and quality furnishings — with carefully chosen statement pieces that add character and individuality.
Through the thoughtful layering of colour, texture, fabrics, and decorative elements, this style creates interiors that feel warm, curated, and uniquely personal. The result is a space that is both sophisticated and inviting — designed to stand the test of time rather than follow passing trends.
With over 30 years of experience in interiors and soft furnishings, my colour consultation service goes far beyond simply choosing a paint shade. I provide expert guidance in selecting cohesive colour palettes, fabrics, patterns, textures, and finishes that complement the architecture and style of your home.
I carefully consider how colours interact with natural light, existing furnishings, flooring, and fixed elements to ensure a balanced and harmonious result. Whether you are updating a single room or refreshing your entire home, I help you make confident, informed decisions that feel timeless and beautifully suited to your space.
With 32 years of hands-on experience working with curtains, Roman blinds, bedding, cushions (including outdoor fabrics), bedheads, reupholstery, and wallpaper, I understand how fabrics and materials work together to create warmth, texture, and personality within a home. I work with trusted fabric houses including Warwick, Mokum/James Dunlop, Zepel, Charles Parsons, and Maurice Kain, giving you access to high-quality textiles suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications.
My goal is to create a cohesive look where colour, texture, and furnishings come together effortlessly — resulting in a space that feels refined, comfortable, and uniquely yours.
Preparing your home for sale is about presenting it at its absolute best to attract buyers and maximise its value. I help homeowners transform their properties into welcoming, appealing spaces that photograph beautifully and create a strong first impression during inspections.
I assess each room objectively, identifying simple yet effective improvements that can significantly enhance presentation. This may include recommending updated paint colours, refreshing soft furnishings, decluttering and rearranging furniture, improving layout flow, and suggesting cost-effective styling updates.
My focus is on highlighting your home’s strengths, creating a sense of space, light, and cohesion that allows potential buyers to emotionally connect with the property. Whether you require a full styling plan or guidance on targeted improvements before listing, I provide practical, achievable recommendations designed to increase appeal and support a successful sale.
Creating a well-balanced interior is not only about colour — it is also about selecting the right furniture and placing it thoughtfully within your space.
I work closely with you to understand your style, needs, and lifestyle, helping you choose furniture that complements the proportions, layout, and character of your home. Whether you are furnishing a new property or updating an existing room, I ensure each piece suits the space in scale, comfort, and overall aesthetic.
Through my trusted network of suppliers, I can source quality furniture and furnishings that align with your design vision and integrate seamlessly with your chosen colour palette and fabrics. I also provide professional guidance on furniture placement to enhance flow, maximise functionality, and create a space that feels cohesive, comfortable, and beautifully finished.
Whether you’re in a residential suburb or a coastal property, I bring professional guidance, experience, and a tailored approach to every project. My aim is to make your space look cohesive, harmonious, and full of personality, wherever you are located.
