Colour consultant and historicist designer

has a passion for art, historic design, craftsmanship and decorative arts. She is working on her first interior decoration project inspired by Victorian artists' houses, and designs maximalist, colourful, and historically-inspired stationery with her husband under the ShaCros brand. 

Her home was recently featured in The World of Interiors, no mean feat for a humble rental flat! Her proudest design moment is the kitchen mural she designed, inspired by the work of William Burges.

She is a member of The Furniture History Society, The Victorian Society and The Decorative Arts Society, and an affiliate member of the Art Workers' Guild.
