I am always looking for ways to ‘leave fingerprints’ of the evolution that a house has witnessed. This subtle nod to the narrative of a home can be through the introduction of furniture, artwork, or textiles from different time periods in its lifetime.

Join me at Birdsall House on Wednesday 18th September for an intimate interior design masterclass. I will be sharing my creative approach and framework to weave your unique personality and style into your home, enhancing both its design and its effect on your wellbeing during a day long Blissful Home workshop against the backdrop of the idyllic Birdsall House near Malton, North Yorkshire.

There’s something about period homes that captivates. Perhaps it’s the sense of history, the layers of life woven into their walls, or the way they simply belong to their surroundings. They hold beauty, romance, and a quiet, enduring presence. But they also bring complexity. Unlike modern homes, they ask more of their owners, more care, more understanding, more patience.

When you prioritise quality, you can create a home that is timeless and aligned with your values. A home that will not only enhance your daily life but also stand the test of time, with minimal environmental impact and provide flexibility for future updates.

Stained glass is not only a design feature, it's an experience, a way of bringing artistry and emotion into the home.
