Introducing the limited edition "Smells Like...Shazza in Reception"
Things have been way too serious lately, so I’m lightening the mood (literally) with a cheeky limited-edition candle drop: the “Smells Like…” range. First up? Meet Shazza—a soy wax tribute to 1980s Tootgarook, where musk perfume, Big-Ms, and freshly extinguished Holiday cigarettes swirl together in one iconic scent. She’s bold, she’s brassy, and she’s only here for a good time, not a long time. Plus, you could win one AND help create the next scent! Head to @_dmpcreative on Insta to get involved.

Thinking of Going Bold With Wall Colour? Here's How to Start (Without Freaking Out)
Choosing the right wall colour can be daunting—especially if you’ve been told to “play it safe” with neutrals. But paint is one of the most affordable, high-impact ways to transform your space. I’m encouraging clients to explore tonal layering: using multiple shades of the same colour to add depth and drama without overwhelming a room. It’s a fresh twist on the 90s feature wall, but with a far more sophisticated payoff. In this post, I break down how to choose your colours, test them properly, and create a stunning palette that works. Check it out and get inspired to ditch the beige!
Turning that interior design problem into an opportunity!
Whilst all of us would love to rip everything out and start again with a cache of high-end designer knick-knacks, more often than not it’s not just not possible. It’s at this point many people give up. But it doesn’t have to be this way!
Power Decorating
The 1980s are back, and interior trendsetters are already embracing this era's bold influence, from Jardan’s plump Valley couches to Bohinc Studio’s artisan designs. This trend spans everything from minimalist to more daring interpretations, allowing it to fit almost any space. Colour palettes reflect this broad approach, with options like Riot Red and Blue Cadet for the brave, while more subtle shades like Neo Mint and terracotta offer a calmer vibe. Concrete, stone, and marble bring in the textured greys, moving away from the flat greys of the 80s. For a successful look, try mixing bold statement pieces with simple, neutral backdrops, complemented by art and track lighting for added style.
Details, details.
Interior styling is all about the little things.
Sure couches, paint colours and surface finishes are critically important. But what makes a space inviting are the small elements of hospitality you can add that welcomes people into the space. Whether they actually avail themselves of said gratuity doesn’t matter. It’s the thought that counts
#i_hate_scandi
I have a confession… I’m not a fan of Scandi. While it’s soothing and stylish for many, it’s been a bit too ubiquitous for my taste. Enter "Cassis," a moody twist on dusty pinks that’s been quietly gaining traction. This sultry hue, paired with forest greens, brass accents, and tactile fabrics, offers a bold, androgynous alternative to the light, airy Scandi look. Embrace the darkness!
