TWENTY QUESTIONS

QUESTION ONE : Describe yourself in three words.

Warm, Spirted, Independent

QUESTION TWO : Give us a quick run down of a typical day at Suna for you?

The morning starts off with the smell of coffee brewing whilst catching up with the team, and of course our furry friends in the office. Reviewing emails is always my first calling and a recap of my ‘to do list’ for the day, then depending on workload its normally a mixed day of designing where I enjoy selecting fabrics and wallpaper as part of this process and attending design reviews with the team. Alongside this there will normally be some projects in the’ Job file’ stage which depending on when they are installing this could be passing on the project information so the team can organise the install and logistics, detailed drawings for bespoke joinery or decoration or planning artwork and purchasing accessories.

QUESTION THREE : What’s your favourite Suna project?

I love the Blackwall Reach show home, I love the unique unexpected elements to the design.

QUESTION FOUR : Tell us something about you we would never guess?

I’m afraid I’m going to disappoint you on this as I literally can’t think of anything – I’m an open book!

QUESTION FIVE : If you had £1,000,000 what would you spend it on?

Pack a rucksack and travel the world

Grand Budapest Hotel – I love all of Wes Andersons films, I can’t get enough of those visuals!

QUESTION NINE : Favourite holiday destination?

QUESTION TEN : What are your top three pet peeves?

Noisy eating, being somewhere where there’s annoying music where you can’t escape it – supermarkets are a big one for me (always always have headphones on you!) which brings me to my last pet peeve…..being with someone who likes to take their time whilst food or clothes shopping. I’m a super speedy (get me out of here) kind of shopper (with headphones on of course!) 

QUESTION ELEVEN : What does an ‘ideal weekend’ look like for you?

A good weekend always starts with a great coffee and catch up with my favourite barista. This would be followed by browsing local antiques, auction and bric – a – brac shops, in the search of that perfect ‘gem’ that I’m currently obsessing over. A swim in the sea is always a must (of course it would be summer!) followed by a long stroll in the countryside and a pint at a cosy pub.

QUESTION TWELVE : What is your favourite possession/piece of furniture/interior item that you own?

My first piece of furniture I ever brought which was an old, beautifully weathered traditional dresser from an antiques shop, it has so many stories to tell and I am forever rearranging the crockery on display.

An old French farmhouse

Nothing beats a slice of proper Rye bread with salted butter
