How long have you been designing kitchens for? How did you get into it?

On and off for 15 years – following on from my interior design degree, basically walked into a kitchen studio and asked for a job.

Who inspires you?

Ilse Crawford is my absolute favourite designer, she focuses on design that makes our lives better by looking at how they make us feel, move, think – she’s a big inspiration to me.

Favourite kitchen trend

My current favourite trend is colour! I am obsessed with raspberry, terracotta and corals mixed with nudes. Also heavily veined worktops are appealing to me right now.

Top tip for designing?

Focus on the feeling, how do you want to feel in the space and work backwards from there.

Unpopular opinion

Don’t design for today. It is easy to think about life as it is now but things change so make sure you futureproof, it might feel counter-intuitive but you will thank yourself in the future.
