What does your job as Project Consultant entail?

As a Project Consultant, I work with everyone involved in a project to help things run smoothly and get the best outcome. Most of my role is guiding the project from the pricing stage through to confirmation. I also spend a lot of time working with designers, builders, and other stakeholders to make sure the product or service we’re providing is the right fit.

What do you love about interior design?

I love how interior design can completely change the way people feel in a space. A well-designed room can lift your mood, spark creativity, or just make you feel at home.

Who are your design icons?

New Zealand has some incredible design talent. I’m inspired daily by the architects and designers we work with, especially those pushing boundaries and putting craftsmanship at the centre of what they do.

What is one of the most interesting projects you’ve worked on?

For me, any project where the client is really passionate becomes interesting. When people care about the end result, the whole process becomes more enjoyable.

What do you love about timber?

I love how timber brings warmth and a natural feel into a space. It makes interiors feel more grounded and inviting.

What is your favourite VidaSpace product?

Love me some Oscar Ono!
