This blog will cover interior design much more extensively, including design ideas, current interior trends and design news. Think of it as a huge addition to this web site, which will still be updated regularly with information on current trends.
When a new product is offered designer's minds immediately start turning over imagining how the material might be used, and what effect it will have on the feel of the home. Where do our design team draw their inspiration from?

When customer’s visit me in Studio m they are constantly asking – how do I make my home look so inviting as your displays? This all comes down to fine details.
Whenever you plan to build a new home or undergo an major renovation – it is important to have a theme for the home – it maybe a chic, modern feel you like or perhaps a tropical Balinese tone. Once you know how you want your home to look – stick to it. When visiting our displays it is clear the design teams have remained consistent throughout each home. This is a simple rule to follow. Choose your colour scheme and remain true to this.
As I mentioned earlier – small details will be what makes your home really stand out. Something I personally love is feature tiling in the ensuites and bathrooms. This really gives your home a luxurious feel and something that is also affordable. A great example of this is the Nelson on display at Alamanda.
Including double vanities in the master ensuite is also proving to be popular. Double vanities not only look stylish but also add to the ensuites convenience. Again this is something that is affordable – but will also add to the homes re-sale value.
Finally I believe you should consider the bedrooms when renovating or building. By adding mirrored doors to robes within your home you can really open up a small bedroom. Mirrored robes help add depth and dimension to a room.
There is so much you can do to your home to give it a designer’s edge – but remember it is all in the planning.
