The E-Design Option

All services are available in-person or remotely, known as e-design. This is a great option for those who may be outside of the UK.

Keeping the same tailored approach as in-person clients, e-design gives you flexibility to implement the design plans on your own time and as your budget allows.

E-design clients are responsible for providing accurate measurements of their space, photos and videos, reflected in the budget-friendly price. This is all done via the client portal. E-Design is best suited for clients who are comfortable communicating online, ordering all items themselves from a digital shopping list and implementing the design plans on their own.

E-Design Client Testimonial

Melissa was amazing at listening and understanding what I wanted. She helped to guide me and offered an excellent virtual consultation via Zoom. She stayed within my budget and advised the best solution for my interior.

My design was delivered remotely, through the client portal and I enjoyed having the time to consider, ask questions and make changes. My experience was 10/10 and I could not ask for better. I am looking forward to working with Melissa again for my next home interior design project. I highly recommend her professional and trustworthy services – thank you Melissa!

The  Interior  Design  Process

I believe that your space should be an authentic extension of who you truly are so every design decision is made with you in mind.

No two designs are the same because as a holistic interior designer, I use your personal taste and style as my guiding star throughout our design journey together. You will be professionally supported and guided to confidently make the right decisions for your space throughout the design process.

PHASE ONE · DESIGN CONSULTATION

We start with an in-depth consultation to discuss your vision and determine your needs for your space. We’ll chat through your inspiration and personal style, as well as your budget and functional needs.  For local clients, we’ll walk through your space while I take detailed measurements and capture reference photos. For e-design clients, you’ll provide me with measurements, photos and videos of your space. Don’t worry, you will be guided through exactly what to measure and how.

PHASE TWO · DESIGN VISION

During this phase, I take all of the info I’ve discovered about you and your space and use that to craft your design concept. This is known as the “creative direction” for the space. Here you will be presented with a concept mood board to portray our design intent. Together we will discuss and develop these initial creative ideas of how to transform your space to achieve your goals.

PHASE THREE · DESIGN DEVELOPMENT

Now the is concept decided on, sourcing begins! This phase is all about the details. During this time I will source/design all of the furniture, fabrics, decor, art, lighting, paint, wallpapers and window treatments to bring our vision to life. You will be presented with finish and fabric samples as well as preliminary plans and technical drawings. There may be some back and forth here, as we develop the final design and plans with which to move forward.

PHASE FOUR · DESIGN IMPLEMENTATION

In this phase we wrap up the creative portion of project and it’s time to execute it in real life! My final deliverables to you will include a detailed specification document, floor plans, technical drawings and a style guide with directions for assembling your space.  For local clients, once all of your items have been delivered and assembled, I will come to personally style your space to ensure the final design is completed perfectly! 

Please Note: Purchasing, order management and installattion is available as an add-on service for clients who want a seamless, full-service experience. 

I  offer  services  to  fellow  business  owners:  from  adding  the  finishing  touches  to  your  space,  to  comprehensive  holistic  interior  design,  branding  and  web  design  packages.

Melissa is a very talented lady with fantastic eye for detail. The new look she created for my business was amazing.

From early contact, through the design & planning details, to the finished project she was very professional. She gave me confidence that the trust I was putting in her would be reflected by the reaction of my customers when seeing the finished article. I was not disappointed.

Thank you Melissa!

Office Interior Design

harness the power of holistic office interior design to encourage connection, boost creativity and increase revenue.

Are you a business owner who is looking to relocate or transform your existing workspace? Are you interested in how holistic interior design can boost employee performance and well-being?

It’s no secret that in the aftermath of the pandemic, peoples’ attitude towards work and their working environment has changed.

As holistic interior designer, I am passionate about creating workspaces that elicit a sense of calm. Creation of a workspace that evokes a sense of calm is a key factor in getting the best out of people in the workplace.

Office Client Testimonial

“We gave Melissa a complete blank canvas to work with and ended up with everything we asked for in our brief.

She also added quite a few things that we would never thought of that have really added to the feel of the office including a central glass boardroom and a colour scheme we would never have chosen that looks amazing.

Highly recommended.
