I’m delighted to be included in the Summer Gardens Special this month.

In a feature by exploring designers' own gardens, I talk about architectural changes, borrowed views, and how I created a relationship between my home, its garden, and the wider setting of where I live.

Six more designers share the secrets of their own spaces, and as our gardens are starting to show signs of Spring, this feature and the whole issue are a great read.

A long and hard day with my fellow judging panel members yesterday, deciding the winners of this year’s of the year awards.

Brilliant presentations and an incredibly high standard of design. Great to catch up with and , and despite hopes of new panel members and bringing calm and order to the proceedings, it was not to be.

We argued all day just like we always do. 😖😤😩

Huge thanks to London’s for hosting us and looking after us in their beautiful designed showroom.

Not long to wait now… the winners will be revealed on 2nd March at the awards ceremony in Birmingham.

We usually work with our clients for months helping them with their projects, and in some cases for years on large or multiple projects.

We go through a lot together!

So to receive feedback like this is very special 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

I'm thrilled that the Journal of Biophilic Design has featured two of our interior design projects in their recent issue.

Themed around sound and acoustics as a key element of biophilic design, the whole issue is a fascinating insight into how considering sound and our perception of it can have a profound effect on our experience and wellbeing in interior spaces.

I was delighted to join the British Institute of Interior Design's panel talk on artificial intelligence (AI) in design at Decorex towards the end of last year.⁣

The full video of our discussion is now available, if you’d like to learn more about “Balancing Creativity and Technology: The Role of AI in Interior Design”

As the use of artificial intelligence continues to grow in many sectors, interior design is no exception. We explored the implications of integrating AI into the practice of interior design: the pros and cons of trying to incorporate it in the design process, how to get the most out of it, and the possible pitfalls to be aware of.

And the big question… will it replace us? We concluded that our human qualities, our understanding and our critical thinking will remain essential to our role. I’d like to hang on to the creative side for as long as possible – it’s the hardest part of the job but also the most rewarding!

I'm thrilled to announce that I’ll be chairing the British Institute of Interior Design panel discussion at Futurebuild 2025 next month: AI, Smart Tech, What Next? The Shape Of Technology In Interior Design.

I’m looking forward to a thoughtful discussion on the ways in which technology is shaping our interiors, from the creative process to the end product. What’s the most effective technology in our studios? How can technology help us with communication, collaboration, and sustainability?

I’ll be joined by Tolù Adẹ̀kọ́ of Adẹ̀kọ́ & Co and Valeria Senkina of Dseesion Interiors to explore this hot topic and answer your questions.

Come and join us on Tuesday, 4th March 4.30pm – 5.15pm on the Energy Stage at ExCeL London

I look forward to seeing you there!

I’ve just contributed to the BIID’s new article on AI in interior Design.

Now live on their website, ‘AI in Interior Design: the Pitfalls and the Potential’ collects my thoughts on this topic, along with those from my fellow panel members from our recent Decorex Design Talk at Olympia.

Lots to think about!

Another jam-packed year, and with the added excitement of two projects completing this week! (Never again 😝)

I’m so very grateful for everything that I've been involved with and everybody I've had the pleasure of working with this year.

New challenges await my return in 2025, but first some much-needed R&R.

We wish everybody happy holidays and a healthy and prosperous New Year!
