Trading Places

Stand Alone Service

When you cannot be there yourself, whether you live overseas, travel often or simply work full-time, I act as your eyes, ears and trusted representative in your home.

Trading Places is a bespoke service where I provide new ideas or feedback on chosen schemes or oversee your chosen decorators.

Over the years, I have built a small network of certain reliable tradesmen. They are careful, respectful and skilled, and I can put you in touch with them, to deal with directly.

The fee for this service is quoted per project, and it includes:

liaison with you and your decorators
• design-led decision making
• progress checks

If you would like help overseeing your decorating project, you are welcome to call me or you may enquire using the link below.

I had done the basics - bed, chairs, sofas - but I let Francesca loose to work her magic with the bits and bobs I had collected. Within a few hours, a house had become a home. Every room had character, looked welcoming and 'worked'. I shall always be amazed and grateful for that transformation.

Francesca critiqued my drawing room which had doors and fireplaces in difficult places. She saw a natural flow through the room that meant losing some pieces of furniture and replacing them with neat stylish items she found at flea and antique markets...now we can comfortably host large gatherings or small family evenings... The investment in lovely pieces was minimal but transforming and she gave new life to existing much-loved items...the feeling in the space is fresh yet familiar and comfortable.

Francesca, while being really enthusiastic about my drawing-room, immediately saw small changes I could make that transformed the room. She has a wonderful natural eye and a sense of style that comes quite intuitively without any hint of pretension or formula. She is an absolute natural, nothing will look provincial or contrived, she has a completely original, magic wand.
