Interior Design Workshop Ticket
£225.00

It's time to put your stamp on the place! Swap the 13 paint patches on the wall for a crystal clear design plan you’re itching to implement, with absolute confidence.

You’ve moved in, you’ve pinned, you’ve saved the screenshots. And yet... the vision still isn’t coming together. You’ve already got great taste. You just need the confidence to trust it. And the clarity to turn ideas into a cohesive scheme you're ready to action.

If you want to walk into your space and feel uplifted and inspired - not overwhelmed by unfinished decisions or underwhelmed by safe ones - then this is the moodboarding masterclass for you.

This whole day session for just 6 people includes bottomless tea & coffee and a nourishing vegetarian lunch, so you can dedicate the day to designing an entire room in your home - and learn a method to repeat on all the others.

Led by award-winning interior designer and experienced workshop facilitator Zoë Hewett (seen on BBC show My Unique B&B), you'll be in safe hands, and warmly welcomed.

This is for you if...

✏️ You’ve tried to ‘just figure it out’ but end up circling the same Pinterest images

✏️ You love interiors but fear making an expensive mistake, so you don’t commit

✏️ You love but feel daunted by colour - so get stuck playing it safe

✏️ You want a home that reflects your personality - not the latest trend

✏️ You’re willing to let go of your mother-in-law’s opinion to discover your own

✏️ You ready to swap stalemate with your partner for unanimous design decisions

What We’ll Cover

  • Setting Your Design Brief
    → Clarify your goals - the needs, nice-to-haves and non-negotiables.

  • Planing Your Space
    → Make every metre matter. Learn what to place, where, and why.

  • Colour Confidence
