Designing a New Build? Here’s How My Services Turn Turnkey To Homely
A new build is a beautiful blank slate, fresh walls, modern layouts, a chance to put your own stamp on it. Perhaps you bought the property turnkey which meant you didn’t get a choice in choosing the kitchen, flooring and sanitaryware from the beginning. And lots of new homeowners tell me the same thing: “We don’t know where to start.”
That’s totally normal. Without guidance, it’s easy for decisions around furniture, lighting, layout and finishing touches to feel overwhelming or disjointed. In fact, many people get stuck right at the beginning or make choices they later regret. Bringing existing furniture with them, they find their furniture pieces don’t look quite right in the space.
That’s exactly why my interior design services exist, to take that pressure off you. Together we build a clear design direction that reflects how you live, what you love, and what will make your home feel warm and complete.
Whether you’re furnishing your forever home or just on the property ladder there’s a level of support designed to fit you.
Let me walk you through how I can help.
New Builds: Turning a House Into a Home
New builds are wonderful, modern layouts, energy efficiency, and a clean slate. But they also come with their own unique challenges:
Rooms can feel a little “boxy” or lacking character
Layouts need thoughtful furniture planning
Lighting, window treatments and storage are often overlooked
Everything needs to be chosen at once, which can feel daunting
Without a plan, it’s very easy to make costly mistakes or end up with a home that never quite feels finished.
This is where a design service really comes into its own.
From the very beginning, I help you create a clear vision for your home. We look at how you actually live, how you want each space to feel, and what will make day-to-day life easier and more enjoyable.
Then I take care of the details:
Space planning so furniture fits perfectly
Cohesive colour schemes from room to room
Sourcing furniture, lighting and accessories
Window treatments and finishing touches
Managing everything so the process feels calm and organised
The result? A beautiful, comfortable home with that all-important wow factor, without the stress of trying to pull it all together yourself.
