There are a few things that light me up in my work and in design generally. Obviously aesthetics are a huge attraction but ever since designing my first kitchen I have been enamoured with anything that surprises with its functionality.  

Real ‘James Bond’ stuff where televisions are revealed out of cabinets or doors seamlessly glide over the face of their neighbouring panels. Any product that adds functionality to the room, but in a really considered and surprising way, is what I always wanted to know about.

Now, to be working with the world leader in this type of technology for the home, from kitchens to cupboards, robes to entertainment areas, I feel grateful that I have the inside info on all of the latest and coolest fittings for designers and home owners alike, and i can share them, now, with you.
