How do you define your work?

Challenging, bold, quirky and fun!

How your ideas come up? Which ones are your sources of inspiration? Are you influenced by anyone?

Influenced by anything and everyone I encounter. Very much by fashion, architecture, colour plays an important part with my designs. I’ve just travelled back from India which will play an important part within my next collection.

I like clean cut, simple and angular and this comes out in a geometric form. Depending on inspiration I may explore other forms and designs.

I do design for other surfaces and always looking to take on new challenging projects.

Which ones have been the best and the worst moments of your professional life?

Best has to be my nomination for the ELLE Decoration British design awards 2012 – that was a big personal achievement. Hmmmmm worst?!…i’m not sure, but have days where balancing the jobs I have to do can get to much, that’s as bad as it gets though!

Have you ever had a mentor that has supported and guided you?

A wonderful mentor at university where I studied my MA, Sophia, she was a great support that year.

What is beauty for you?
