I love to write, it's my favourite thing - words matter. The right words can sell products, bring clarity to complicated subjects, explore trends and set you apart as an authority on your subject. I write interiors blogs and features and I’m available for commissions.

Public Relations is a service that I offer to all of my clients - either as a stand-alone offering or as part of a multi-layered marketing strategy. Content still matters and a well-crafted press release, alongside high quality imagery, well placed to the correct target audience, is invaluable.

Chinese wallpapers were imported as part of Sinomania – the fashion for all things oriental including lacquer, porcelain, silks and patterned linens from India.
