Making final selections on your furnishings is an exciting milestone. But placing furniture orders isn’t the end of the design process. It’s the start of a whole new stage: implementation. A dynamic, live phase that sees your dream interior furnishings come to fruition. 

More than just ‘coordinating furniture deliveries’ implementation is an art and a specialist skill requiring strategy, negotiation, problem solving and live judgement calls. 

In today’s episode I’m sharing how I guide my clients through this phase and the difference a leadership approach makes to the final outcome.

In this episode I’m sharing how I create a Furnishings Investment Plan for my clients, using a design-led approach. 

What does a design-led approach mean?

✨ Understanding quality. Where to invest in the items that matter most, eg a custom sofa that lasts for years and your whole family loves

✨ Providing a ‘total investment picture’ of your furnishings before you go out and purchase anything 

✨ Looking at furnishings as a long-term investment in your overall well-being and quality of life

If this is something you’d like to explore - a beautifully designed and executed furnishings scheme that comes with an in-built investment plan - reach out via the link below or in my DMs. I’d love to hear from you.

If you’ve ever been tempted to click “buy now” on a piece of furniture you’ve only seen on screen - this conversation is for you. 

Today I’m reflecting on the reality of buying furniture online and how easily a well-styled photo can elevate a piece beyond its true quality. 

Understanding what you’re buying online, what it’s made of and how it’s produced sounds pretty simple…until you get it delivered and realise it doesn’t look anything like the photo. 

I’m sharing a real-life story of what happened to one of my clients when they bought furniture based on a few online images.

What started out as a personal journey to find beautiful lights for their forever home, turned into a love affair with lighting for Marie Botsis-Premici and her husband Gino Premici. While travelling in New York, they discovered their dream pendants in Montauk, at the tip of Long Island. 

Before long, after identifying a need in the market and keen to share their passion for lighting with others, Marie left her career as a commercial lawyer and, together with Gino, founded the Montauk Lighting Co - Australian luxury lighting supplier of designer lighting brands such as Visual Comfort, Tom Dixon, Tigermoth and more. 

I sat down with Marie to chat about the values that drive the company today, why lighting matters and how layering beautiful lighting in our home is not only practical but elevates our senses and supports our well-being. 

If you have ever fallen in love with a light fitting, or dreamed of finding the one, you won’t want to miss this heartfelt conversation with Marie.

“I have a good eye - I can just do it myself.”

I know. You have good taste already right? So do a lot of my clients. But having a “good eye” can only get you part of the way. The real challenge? Is implementation. 

If you’ve ever been let down by a trade, told ‘too small’, ‘too busy’ or had furniture just dumped at your front door, you’ll know exactly what I mean. 

Today on the podcast I’m sharing 5 common beliefs about design - thought patterns that instead of taking you forward, are actually holding you back.

Today I’m sharing the top 4 strategies I use when furnishing your luxury apartment or new home that save you time, money and stress. 

1. Be super-careful when viewing developer or real estate floor plans that show furniture - they’re indicative only and not drawn to scale. 

2. Get the original construction drawings. This will help you get millimetre perfect on your room sizes and what can realistically fit. 

3. Measure the lifts! Such an easy one to overlook yet can save you huge headaches on move-in day.

4. Understand your electrical plans so you can make changes to suit the way you live, and design your furniture around them.
