Think fairy godmother, but for your home...

I've been reflecting recently on what the special magic is in some of our projects, the ones that really soar. More often than not, it is when we work with bright, driven women who are ready to trust someone who has been doing this, and living this, for a very long time.


You've got a new home, a bunch of Pinterest boards, a vague sense of what you want your home to feel like, and no idea how to get there. You've walked into rooms that felt right - and you've walked back into your own home and felt that familiar low-level disappointment. You know it could be better. You just don't know how.

That's where House by Mia comes in

I'm not the intimidating designer with strict rules and strong judgment. I'm not here to strip your home of everything you love and replace it with something that looks great in a magazine but feels like nobody actually lives there. I'm the experienced and wise person who sits with you, asks you the questions to really understand how YOU live and what you yearn for, and then gets genuinely excited about making your space everything you've been trying to articulate.


Then, when it comes time to action your new designs the wider, highly experienced team make sure the process is as smooth as the finished result.

Think of me less as a hired professional and more as the stylish, straight-talking aunt you always wished you had - one who knows exactly where to source that perfect sofa, which paint colour will make your bedroom feel like a proper sanctuary, and why the rug you're considering is half a metre too small.


I Will Tell You the Truth - With Love


I'm going to be honest with you about the lamp. And the sofa. And whatever it is you've been holding onto since your last flat that really doesn't belong in this one. With warmth and zero judgment, because my job isn't to make you feel good about the wrong decision - it's to get you to the right one.

I Know Things That Will Save You Time, Money, and a Lot of Regret


With a decade of experience I've seen what works in real homes - not just on shoots. I know which trends will feel tired in two years. I know the suppliers worth trusting, the lead times to build in, and the corners you should never cut.


Every mistake I'm steering you away from is money staying in your pocket and stress staying out of your life.


Having me and the team in your corner isn't an indulgence. It's one of the smartest decisions you can make for your home.

This Doesn't End When the Project Does.


By the time we're finished, I'll know you and your tastes, we'll be in easy step. So when you're ready for the next thing - the new house, the renovation, the bathroom that's finally getting its moment - you won't be starting from scratch with someone new. You'll just call me.


So - Shall We?


If you've been waiting for someone who will listen, push back when it matters, bring your budding vision to life, and make the whole process a LOT more fun - I'm here.
