Initially assisting with selections and design at the architectural planning stage of a modern Hamptons inspired new build. She worked with us on everything from design layouts, bathroom selections, kitchen cabinetry, floor coverings and paint colours.

Then secondly she assisted us in selecting and installing a whole new house with coastal/ hamptons inspired furniture and decor. She was able to balance our love of hamptons within a modern house. Jodie is personable and thorough and is happy to try and try again to make sure she finds something you really like. Thank you Jodie for everything you have done to give us a house we love and are proud of! read less

My study was the junk room and Jodie has changed it to a space that I love to work in.
The new furniture and shelves Jodie suggested are perfect and the addition of prints on the wall, a rug and items on the shelves just bring it all together. This is the first room Jodie has started with a blank canvas and everything she chose down to the desk trays and folders are perfect.. I saw my chair on The block! Good choice! My daughter has used Jodie as well for choice of window coverings throughout her home. read less

Based on Jodie’s website and the reviews that she received, I decided to contact Jodie. I was quite nervous as I had never used an Interior designer before and wondered if this was going to be a waste of time and money in our already tight budget. Fortunately, I had nothing to fear. Jodie put me at ease, was punctual and efficient with the time that we had. She was able to get my thoughts onto paper and with her additional suggestions we now had a design for the wall cupboard that not only looked great but saved us money. I would definitely use her again read less

The design had to include a kitchen island and walk in pantry and allow flow to the external area. The design from Jodie, will allow the area to be well utilised and allow space for a family of 5 to all be in the same location. The space has been well used to allow a large island, plenty of bench space & additional storage which the house was lacking. Overall the recommended finishes and design will have the "wow" factor. read less

When my husband and I decided to renovate, the design process was more challenging than I anticipated. Then came decisions around colours and materials, and it was simply overwhelming. At that point, I thought we need help!

After some searching on Houzz, I came across Jodie's details and was immediately drawn to her style. After a short consultation, we were able to quickly narrow down our choices to a couple of options. Jodie followed up with samples and we made decisions on benchtop colours, kitchen cabinets, splashback, as well as internal flooring and the deck outside. I couldn't believe how easy the process became with her help and I certainly felt confident we were on the right path. It saved hours of looking at photos and deciding on a style. Also, the way Jodie presented our final choices made it very clear for our kitchen designer and builder to source materials.

A few months on, we are loving our renovation and the way everything came together. I would highly recommend Jodie for her great style, professionalism and advice. read less

Enter Jodie. With a modest budget she was able to transform our house into a home we love. She followed our brief to a tee while introducing us to new ideas that we thoroughly embraced.

The key objective was to utilise the small spaces I had in the most effecient way. The response to my brief was 5 star. Jodie provided design layout options to review and discuss, along with recommendations of furniture and design pieces. We focused on a front sun room, living/ dining and back play room. Jodie always went above and beyond to ensure we found the right pieces to finish each room as per her vision. Jodie is highly professional and a real joy to work with. I used Jodie again to do my daughters bedroom and the master bedroom after we completed the first round. I would highly recommend her to any one who is after a high quality and completely down to earth interior designer. read less

Having downsized to a duplex we wanted a new look for our living areas plus ideas on how to get the most functional use out of some smaller spaces.

Jodie took the time to get to know our likes and dislikes and to answer our many questions. Working within a modest budget she offered creative solutions and alternatives to achieve a great look with a practical design. I have learnt so much working with Jodie, and couldn’t be happier with the end result. It was also a pleasure working with Jodie’s professional team of trade partners.

Jodie’s work has added value to our home as well as to our enjoyment in living in a beautiful space. If you want a home that reflects your personality plus works well for your daily living, Jodie will create this for you. We still have more to do and I look forward to continuing to work with Jodie in the future. read less

I knew I wanted to put my own mark on the property but not having any contacts in the area, I asked around. Jodie's name was quickly mentioned several times - so I gave her a call to start the ball rolling.

I was instantly impressed by Jodies warm approach, as she took the time to understand me, my likes and dislikes and ideas I had in mind for the property. Jodie came up with some beautiful designs & styling which quickly elevated the final results.

From a business perspective I was very impressed at how responsive she was, answering all emails and calls very promptly. Once we narrowed down the choices, the top 2 or 3 were then summarised into a spreadsheet, which meant I knew every detail about the selections at a glance. Colour, dimensions, cost and delivery dates were all clearly outlined making it very easy to keep track everything. Brilliant for our busy lifestyles. Furthermore, I was impressed by her generous business model of passing on trade prices for all the furniture, artwork, rugs and decorator items you purchase as part of the project. Double bonus ! as this helps to stick to your budget easily.

So far we've completed stage 1 of our project and I have no hesitation in hiring Jodie and her team again to move forward with stage 2. read less

I had contacted a number of designers from Houzz as well as from friends' recommendations. I spent a lot of time interviewing them and hearing their suggestions. Eventually, I had chosen Jodie. The project took about 10 months from design to completion with a budget about A$250k. As I am overseas in Hong Kong, I have to rely on Jodie to do all the minor details of everything for me. Apart from controlling the budget, I have given her almost a free hand from design to completion. When I saw the decorated apartment, it was exactly how I envisioned and better. We had a lot of communications at all stages of the project, which I think is a very important factor of success in this project. I would recommend Jodie to all her prospective clients as I am so fortunate to have her in designing, supervising and selecting accessories for the apartment. read less

Whether you have definite ideas on design or need complete guidance, Jodie will be as involved as needed. She works within specified budgets and still achieves a quality finish.
Jodie will make sure your home flows with a theme and colour palette that still suits you and the way you and your family live.
We've worked with Jodie twice now, once on a 4 bdrm Penthouse apartment, built from scratch, which was ultra modern, styled to New York Penthouse, and most recently, a complete renovation of the interiors of a 2 storey, 4bdrm + study Federation home, styled to Hollywood Regency.
Both times Jodie led the design direction, but was open to our input, as after all, we were to be living in these homes.
We couldn't have been happier with the outcome of both projects and highly recommend Jodie to anyone considering using an Interior Designer. read less

We just moved to Sydney and didn't know who to use as our builder/contractor or where to shop for furniture/fabric/materials/fixtures/fittings/appliances.

Jodie managed the entire project from start to finish and was constantly on top of things. She was always on time and her communication skills are truly incredible.

We provide a professional service working with children with speech, language, learning and developmental difficulties. It was important that our working space provided a calm, friendly and functional space where staff and clients could feel at ease.
Jodie was very attuned to our needs. She created a design that was modern, relaxing and most importantly functional.
In all my dealings with Jodie, I found her to be reliable, honest and very upfront about her charges. She encouraged us to become involved in project management to minimise costs. She ordered all our furniture and fittings and was able to negotiate competitive prices through suppliers she regularly dealt with.
We are thrilled with the final result and have received outstanding feedback from staff and clients about our beautiful work environment.
I have already recommended Jodie to my hairdresser and would happily recommend her to anyone. read less

I am delighted with the results for the whole project.
