A home has a story. I help you bring it together

Since living in France, I’ve become increasingly interested in the different architectural styles and eras of its houses – their exteriors, architectural details and the history of the buildings themselves. What were they originally built for? What has happened within their walls? How have they changed over time?

I’m equally fascinated by what lies inside: the furniture, paintings and objects, their origins, their journeys and the stories they hold about the people who owned them, collected them and brought them into the home.

It’s the coming together of a building’s history, the stories behind its contents and the people who live there today that makes every home unique.

It’s about finding the thread that connects everything and creating a home that feels considered, personal and very much a reflection of the people who live there.

I bring this perspective to my work with homes across Normandy and beyond, helping their owners see the possibilities in the spaces they call their own.

 

Not quite happy with your home?

Sometimes you look around your home and feel that something isn’t quite right. You know it could be better, but you’re not quite sure what needs changing or where to begin.

Perhaps the furniture isn’t sitting quite right, the colours aren’t working together, or the room just doesn’t feel as you’d imagined.

You might have lovely things, furniture you’ve collected over the years and pieces you wouldn’t want to part with, but somehow they don’t seem to come together.

You don’t necessarily need to buy more or start again. Sometimes it simply takes a fresh pair of eyes to see things differently and recognise what’s already there.

That’s where I can help.
