Skills
I'm offering
To tell you a little about myself, I have a background in high-end property management in Geneva, Switzerland, and gained extensive experience organising renovations and refurbishments there. In 2015, having moved to London, I graduated from KLC. After a couple of years working for others, I set up as a freelance interior designer and have worked on a wide range of projects since then from a bijou garden cabin to a central London penthouse.
At the moment, I am working on a large project in London: a 5-storey new-build Kensington townhouse. This involves intensive co-ordination with architects, QCs, and an army of contractors. I have also recently helped clients giving a second life to a charming cottage in Robin Hood's Bay on the Yorkshire coast that needed some love. The clients kept all their furniture but we worked on a new colour palette and harmonised with indirect lighting and soft furnishing to create a cosy, welcoming home.
To give you an idea of my work, please take a look at the links below where you can find images and reviews:
