How I Work

Step 1: Initial Consultation

The process begins with an in-depth consultation to understand your ideas, project scope, and budget. This two-hour session at your West End home costs $495 (inc GST) and includes travel.

Step 2: Design Proposal

For larger projects, I will provide a Scope of Services and Fee Proposal, outlining the design process and associated costs. Once agreed, I will prepare a Design Schedule featuring space plans, item descriptions, and visuals.

Step 3: Concept Presentation

We meet at your home to review the design concepts and gather feedback, ensuring the final plan aligns with your expectations.

Step 4: Implementation

Once the design is approved, we oversee the implementation, coordinating furniture orders and collaborating with skilled tradespeople to bring your vision to life.

 

Testimonials

Karen & Phil Tonkin: “We engaged Gary to assist with decorating our Newstead unit last year. Gary was fabulous! He is SO good at what he does: listening to our vision, learning about our lifestyle needs and creating a space that is both comfortable and beautiful. Gary is very personable and professional. We thoroughly enjoyed working with him and love spending time in our city home when we visit from the country. Gary, we look forward to completing the final touches to our unit with you soon.”

Glenda & Lindsay Mann: “Whilst I had my own ideas, Gary was able to gently steer me toward other options that were always a much better choice. I had a number of furniture items custom made that I really love; Gary designed these pieces making sure the size and dimensions were perfect for our space. Judging by the number of positive comments I receive from visitors to our home, I know it was well worthwhile having somebody with such great style involved in its creation.”
