  • "She is one of those rare individuals whose impeccable interior design skills are coupled with outstanding project management skills… She listened carefully to what we wanted, rather than steering us towards what would be most fashionable… From an unfinished new build all the way to turnkey — open the front door, and you are home!"

    — Sue, Kilkenny (new build)

  • "I had the pleasure of working with Liz on my current house renovation project, and she was absolutely fantastic. She helped me find clarity with colours and layout, and guided me through the design process with kindness and insight. Liz took the time to truly understand my personal style and showed me how to bring that into my new home."

    — Siobhan, Kilkenny (house renovation)

  • "She listened to our requirements... and our needs resulting in a beautiful blend of artistry and practically. Liz’s talent and expertise made the entire process seamless and enjoyable. Her creativity and attention to detail is impeccable. We 100% recommend Liz’s work."

    — Lorraine, Laois (kitchen & sitting room)

Consultations

Whether reviewing a single room or an entire home, the focus is on understanding what the house needs, which decisions matter most, and what should happen first — so you can move forward with greater clarity and ease.

A consultation provides expert design advice tailored to your home, your priorities and the stage you are at.

Building & Renovating

Building or renovating a home involves hundreds of decisions, from layouts and lighting to finishes and furnishings.

By evaluating the home as a whole, I help ensure individual decisions work together and support the long-term vision for the property.

The Design Process

Every project begins with understanding the home, the priorities and the decisions that will have the greatest impact. From there, the level of involvement can be tailored to suit the project.

Consultation

01 /

Every project begins with a focused consultation. By understanding your space, I can clarify what matters most, and I can provide specific and considered design direction for the space before further decisions are made. This 90-minute session gives you clarity with choices to move forward.

Design Map

02 /

Following the consultation, I provide detailed package options in order to complete the full design for your space. Each Design Map is tailored to the project. Beginning with a full Design Concept, it may include spatial planning, joinery concepts, and detailed colour and material specifications, depending on the agreed scope. The Design Map brings together all aspects of design into a cohesive plan.
