INTERIOR DESIGN - WALES & SOUTH WEST ENGLAND
Swansea, Gower, Carmarthenshire, Pembrokeshire, Brecon & Powys, Vale of Glamorgan, Cardiff, Monmouthshire & Bristol.
Spaces that
change how
you feel about
being in them.
I work with homeowners, hospitality businesses, and wellness operators to create spaces that are creatively distinctive, functionally considered, and deeply personal. From the first conversation to the moment you walk in and know it's right.
Creative.
Not restrained to any aesthetic — my creativity is in how I listen, how I solve problems, and how I find the unexpected answer that, in hindsight, feels obvious.
Grounded.
My confidence comes from having done the work. Every project, every lesson, every hard-won decision — that experience is what you're engaging when you work with me.
Confident.
Quiet confidence is its own kind of authority. I know when an idea is right, and I know how to tell you something you might not want to hear — and have you trust me for it.
ABOUT SHELLEY
I don't give people a room.
I give them a place where
something important happens.
I came to interior design through an unconventional route — and that is one of the most important things about me. Years of proving myself in professional environments, a master's degree, and a business started during a pandemic because it felt right. Every chapter gave me something I bring to this work.
I'm a gifted listener. Clients tell me things they haven't told anyone else. That listening is what makes the design feel like them, not like me.
WHAT I DO
Three sectors. One standard.
The same creative rigour, the same grounded approach, the same commitment to getting it exactly right — whether I'm designing a family home, a boutique hotel, or a wellness retreat.
Residential
HOMES THAT FEEL LIKE YOU
For homeowners who know what they want to feel but can't get there alone. I take away the overwhelm and give you something more valuable than a beautiful room — I give you your time back, and a home that is entirely yours.
Hospitality
SPACES GUESTS REMEMBER
Design that works commercially and creatively. I understand guest experience intuitively and bring genuine creative ambition to briefs that lesser designers would make safe and forgettable.
Wellness
SPACES THAT DO THEIR JOB
A wellness space has to do psychological work. I design for how space affects the people who use it — because the best treatment room isn't the one that photographs well. It's the one that makes someone feel safe enough to let go.
“Good design is about getting the fundamentals right first. Everything else follows from that.”
No unnecessary complexity. Just a clear, considered journey from first conversation to finished space.
Other, more simplified design services are available, which will meet you wherever you are in the design journey.
