Her own personal desire to lessen the pressure on the earths natural resources has lead her towards eco-design and she now offers all her clients sustainable alternatives for their design schemes.
“In my interior design practice, I began to look into sustainable materials several years ago and found that it wasn’t that easy to find stylish, well-made, desirable products for the eco-friendly home. Further research and the passage of time has helped me to find more, but they are often very rough in finish and bland in colour. I wanted to offer my clients products for their homes that were not only elegant and stylish, but also beautiful in their composition and production “
