About

I am a highly experienced commercial and residential interior designer specialising in creating distinctive, high-impact spaces for global retail and lifestyle brands and private clients. With a strong conceptual approach grounded in commercial awareness, I design spaces that balance storytelling, craftsmanship, and strategic function.

I am particularly drawn to projects that prioritise quality, sustainability, and a genuine connection to nature. My work spans flagship retail stores and experiential retail concepts, educational establishments and premium residential property - all aimed at expressing identity and practicality through beautiful, purposeful, and memorable spatial design.
