How did your company start, and how long have you been in operation?

The company was formed in 2002 and the store in Umhlanga opened in 2009.

What does you company specialise in, and what services do you offer?

We specialise in turnkey projects, renovations and high-end residential.

What is the most exciting project that you have ever completed?

Each project is a challenge, so each evokes the same feeling for me.

What is your favourite item in your home and why?

I love the vogue chair in my lounge covered in Nguni hide.

If you could give home owners two pieces of advice about decorating their interiors, what would they be?

Don’t be scared to place a large piece of furniture a small space, but keep the furniture simple with clean lines. Keep to naturals and colour with accessories.
