I know, isn’t it just gorgeous?!

I know, isn’t it just gorgeous?!

Rosehaven.studio was born out of a lifelong dream to undertake an entire renovation design project…….and in 2017 we sold our draughty but beautiful Victorian semi and bought 'Rosehaven', a rundown 1930’s wreck that had not seen a paintbrush, never mind a plumber or electrician since the 1950's. This once loved family home needed totally gutting and renovating, but with the space to extend I could see (just about....) that it could become something rather lovely.

We decided to keep the name the house had been known as for years, and a year later, Rosehaven had undergone quite the transformation. So now I want to help you. With a background in visual merchandising, fashion buying and retail management, the aesthetic, colour, texture and how a space makes you feel has always been important to me. I’ve always been passionate about interiors. I’ve studied an interior design qualification, have designed and renovated previous properties (on varying budgets), and have sourced and designed for friends and family. In 2016 my Instagram account attracted attention and I was asked to do a ten page feature for national interior design magazine ‘Good Homes’ , featuring our previous property. In addition, in 2019 I was fortunate to have Rosehaven featured in the August issue of Real Homes. Then in August 2020 it also featured in Homebuilding and Renovation magazine, and most recently in Woman’s Own interior segment. Rosehaven has now been sold onto new owners, whilst I embark on an exciting new project……

 I believe interior design should be for everyone, wouldn't you like to feel happier the minute you walk through your front door?........whatever that might mean to you; inspiring, invigorating- full of colour and pattern, a calming and soothing palette of neutrals, cosy, rich and intimate dark decor or ready for entertaining with a bold statement space or, like me, a bit of an eclectic mish-mash of all those things, with some added vintage and mid century furniture thrown in. Even if it’s just one room you can retreat to, life is so fraught in the current climate, home comforts are more important than ever, and I’d really love to help you achieve ‘that’ feeling in your home. 

'Interior Design' as a concept, can seem intimidating, insanely costly and inaccessible. Rosehaven. Studio was created with a desire to do interior design differently.

I can help you with friendly, informal interior consultations at your home, whether you are planning an entire renovation or just a room refresh, or anything in between. I also create abstract artwork, originals, prints and homeware that can complement your new space, or accentuate the space you have already created. 

Get in touch, I'd love to have a chat.
