Expert guidance — without the full-service waitlist.
Smarter choices. Fewer mistakes. Beautiful results.
We created The Foundation and The Edit as a way to bring our design expertise to more people, in a clear, focused format that meets you exactly where you are in your project. Whether you’re just beginning and need a confident, strategic starting point (The Foundation), or you’re mid-way through and ready to refine what’s already in motion (The Edit), these sessions are designed to complement your lifestyle, clarify your thinking, and elevate your home.
Each session is a one-on-one with our director, Elizabeth Parker — ensuring a highly personalised experience, shaped by years of hands-on expertise in creating thoughtful, enduring homes.
These are not generic consultations — they are deeply considered design collaborations. We listen closely, ask the right questions, and guide you with practical, aesthetic and architectural insight to avoid costly missteps and missed opportunities.
Most importantly, we believe building and designing a home should be joyful. With the right advice at the right moment, it absolutely can be.
