INTERIOR DESIGNER SERVICES
how my Full Interior Design Service works
I offer a highly personalised service, which revolves around you. I work with you to establish your personal style, listen to your ideas and work with your budget to create a bespoke design scheme.
Why not make an appointment to visit my studio. It’s home to a superb collection of wallpaper swatches, fabric samples, paint colours, lighting and accessories.
Alternatively, I’ll come come to you – armed with a selection of samples to get your project started.
Next I’ll create a mood-board showing just how beautifully each different element of your new room could work together. And this will be accompanied by a full breakdown of costs.
Each of my projects is different – but my approach is consistent. I’ll meticulously plan every detail your transformation – selecting the most professional decorators and qualified craftsmen, and I will personally oversee every stage of the project.
But it’s not just about me – I work with the region’s most skilled cabinet makers, seamstresses, upholsterers, antique restorers and decorators – together with a multitude of specialist craftsmen.
Ian has provided inspiration for both our Georgian home and our London 1970's apartment. I am confident when working with Ian that he will present interior schemes that are interesting and vibrant, and which take cognisance of the client's own tastes.

Soft Furnishings
I work with a carefully selected range of product suppliers meaning I can source the most striking fabrics. Whether you’re looking for some of the finest printed cottons and linens, the most ornate embroidered silks, or perfectly coordinated voiles, I can source exactly what you’re looking for.
Once selected, the most experienced drapers and seamstresses will complete your project with professionalism and care.
Ian has the ability to listen well and then apply that to design recommendations. the end result was a beautiful living room that i feel reflects my personality. it has gone from a room that was hardly used to our favourite place to spend time.

Ian was a massive help in decorating our eighteenth-century house. Delighted with the result, a house that has been sympathetically updated without losing its period charm.

Ian worked closely with me to change the overall feel of my house, to make it feel more "finished" and more me. The overall finished look of the house was fantastic, much more "finished" than I could have done on my own.
