CLIENT PROFILE:
Single professional male; first home he has owned; South West London two bedroom ground floor Victorian apartment; east facing.
The client had no furniture when he moved in except a deck chair! The whole apartment needed to be painted, decorated and filled with furniture and accessories. His brief was for a stylish and comfortable design as his previous abode had been a real bachelor pad! And all on a very small budget.
30 something professional couple; first home they have owned; South West London first floor two bedroom apartment; south facing; adding a loft conversion to give them a master suite.
The clients initially sought my help with paint colours for the whole flat but I ended up providing a full interior design service for many of the rooms.
One of the biggest problems with posting my projects on my website is the fact that the projects are ongoing. My clients are all residential and the projects don't have a start and end date mainly due to budget restrictions or the time it takes to source a particular item(s). I'm happy to roll with it - dip in and out of the project as and when the client needs me but it makes it difficult to share the finished article with you. So I've decided that I'll share my projects with you as a work in progress.
CLIENT PROFILE:
Large Edwardian family home in Tooting, South West London, with a well established bed & breakfast Parklands Bed & Breakfast.
I was contacted by the client to revamp the guest suites and communal areas with new colour schemes and to restyle each room with different accessories. In most instances I was able to recycle all the accessories in the property.

The trend for grey interiors continues, at least in south west London where I and most of my clients live. Most paint their interiors in various shades of grey and then wonder what they can do to brighten them up. After all, it's grey outside most of the year in London so why would you want to bring that indoors?!
I decorated and styled the ground floor living spaces of a Victorian home in South West London. The clients love the colour grey but weren't averse to pops of colour.
It's so important to create an instant visual impact because people form an opinion of your home within the first 20 seconds of entering. Here's another beautiful stair runner I created.
Finding quirky items and ways to use them in the home can be a source of great joy. See my recent finds and how they're featured in my house.
This 80s-styled bathroom was in need of a makeover. Find out how I made the transition to a more modern, sleek look.
Found a piece of perfectly good furniture discarded on the side of the road? Take it home and give it a little love and a coat of paint.
“I am inspired to brighten up our home with more flowers around the house. Angela taught us to gather foliage, herbs and flowers from the garden and mix it with bought flowers to make lovely arrangements.”
Eve, Bristol
“Angela’s ‘Power of Colour’ course was a real treat. It combines theory and experience with practical in-depth discussion based on swatch-based colour/fabric/wallpaper schemes designed by each person in the group. Angela gently challenges your concepts and pushes you to really think about achieving something that is interesting and right for your space. The real gem is actually being in Angela’s inspiring home which is even more fantastic in real life than in the photos. Lovely surroundings and an encouraging atmosphere with tea, coffee and delicious snacks. It’s a lovely way to spend a few hours and start interior planning with confidence.”
Katie, London NW6
“I had a great day painting with Angela, I had always wanted to try my hand at furniture painting as I had some old pieces that needed revamping but never had the confidence to take the plunge! Angela showed us some great techniques and suggested colours that I would never had thought of. I am so pleased with the mirror and stool that we painted for my little girl’s bedroom and it’s the opposite colour that I would have chosen myself. To my complete surprise, I love it! The whole experience was so relaxed and Angela made it really good fun. Her beautiful home was such a perfect setting. Since doing the course I have painted another 2 mirrors and a dressing table, I have got the painting bug!”
Laura, London SW12
“I'm mad about colour and fabrics and was in total heaven at Angela's Power of Colour workshop. I gained so much knowledge in what colours to put where in my home. It was a super fun day and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I came away with lots of swatches and samples and raring to go with my project.”
Abi, Leicester
"Your course on flower styling was not only very enjoyable but also made me think outside the box when it comes to choosing receptacles and dealing with a variety of flowers. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and for the warm welcome. I would recommend the course to anyone who wants to learn/enhance their confidence dealing with flowers."
Pascaline, SW17
“Angela was a great help throughout the process of redecorating my home. From a simple brief of ‘sophisticated homeliness’ she was able to help me with colour schemes and in suggesting and sourcing individual items of furniture to fit my rooms and preferred style, all done with a smile and a good splash of humour.”
Martin, London SW12
"We sought Angela’s help initially with paint colours for our flat, but Angela ended up helping us with everything from paints, carpets, wallpapers, blinds to finding a good decorator. We really couldn’t have done without Angela and her excellent (and money saving) suggestions!”
Rav, London SW12
"Thank you so much for an amazing colour workshop. You have inspired me beyond belief. I will definitely be adding some more colour to my life now. No more dark gloomy hall for me."
Christi, London SW16
"I had a wonderful morning on Angela’s colour workshop. She offered so many interesting insights into how to add colour into our homes and has given me the confidence to do so. Angela has an abundance of fabric, colour and wallpaper swatches to look at and create our room schemes. It helped to have all this in one place, whilst having her to advise and reassure on which worked most successfully. It was very inspiring."
Roz, London SW12
"I couldn't be more delighted with the work Angela did for us, our house is transformed. She has cleverly used colour throughout the house, where each room is different but complements each other and the space flows beautifully . She really has a great talent with colour, knowing what will work in a light, dark cool or warm room. I couldn't recommend Angela more highly as she really did tailor a look that fitted withour style and personality."
