I’ve just received the most beautiful leather samples from .editions. Their pieces are like art works and I can’t wait to have them in a project.

The detail that makes a bathroom feel expensive has nothing to do with budget.

It’s consistency.

The finish on your tapware matches the towel rail matches the toilet roll holder matches the shower screen frame.

When those four things are cohesive, the room reads as intentional. When they’re not, something feels off and most people can’t name why. This is one of the things we work through in The Edit. It’s a small detail that makes a significant difference to how the room lands.

If you’re in selections right now and you haven’t checked this yet, check it today.

A question I get asked often: what actually happens in The Edit?

Here’s exactly how it works.

You reach out and tell me where you’re at. Maybe you’re about to start selections and don’t know where to begin. Maybe you’re mid-build and something isn’t sitting right. Maybe you just want a designer to look at everything together and tell you honestly if it works.

You send through your plans, your selections schedule, any samples or images you’ve been working with, and a summary of where you’re stuck or what you want me to look at. The more context you give me, the more useful our time together will be.

I review everything before we meet so I come to the session already across your project. You’re not spending the first twenty minutes explaining the background. We go straight into the work.

We meet and go through it together. Your questions get answered. The decisions that aren’t working get flagged. The ones that are get confirmed. If something needs to change, we talk through what the options are and what the impact will be on the rest of the project.

After the session you receive a recording so you can go back and listen to anything we covered. You also receive a written summary of everything we discussed, the decisions we landed on, and the next steps that came out of our time together.

You walk away with clarity. Not more to think about. Not a list of new problems. Just a clear picture of where you’re at, what needs to happen next, and the confidence that the home you’re building is going to be right.

That’s The Edit.

You’ve done the hard work. You have your plans. You have a builder. You’re moving.

And then the selections process starts and it feels like a second job.

The tiles. The tapware. The handles. The benchtop. The lighting. The joinery finishes. The grout colour. The shower screen frame. The mirror. The flooring. Every single one of them a decision, every single one of them permanent, and most of them due at the same time.

And underneath all of it is a quiet fear that you’re going to get something wrong. That you’ll spend a significant amount of money on a home you’ll live in for years and somewhere in there a decision you made under pressure, or without the right information, is going to cost you.

Maybe you’ve already felt it. Standing in a tile showroom being told you need to decide by Friday. Staring at three samples that all look the same under fluorescent light. Saying yes to something because you ran out of time to keep thinking about it.

This is the moment The Edit was built for.

Not a full design service. Not ongoing management. One focused session with a designer who has looked at hundreds of selections schedules, caught the decisions that don’t work together before they’re ordered, and knows what questions to ask about your specific build.

You bring your plans, your selections, and your questions. We work through them together. You leave with clarity, a written summary of what we covered, and the confidence to move forward knowing the decisions you’re making are the right ones.

One session. Before it costs you more than it needs to.

The question most people forget to ask their builder. And it quietly costs them thousands.

“What’s included in your allowances?”

Every builder’s quote comes with allowances for tiles, tapware, fixtures, appliances, and finishes. These are estimated costs, built on assumptions about what you’ll choose. They assume a certain price point, a certain weight, a certain level of complexity to install.

The problem is most people make their selections after the contract is signed. And by then, the budget is already set. Here’s what that means in practice.

You choose a stone benchtop instead of the engineered stone the allowance assumed. The material costs more, but so does the installation. Stone is heavier, harder to handle, and often requires additional support. That difference isn’t just in the product price.

You choose a freestanding bath instead of a built-in. The tapware moves to the floor or wall, the waterproofing changes, and the labour involved is different from what was quoted.
You choose large format tiles instead of standard. The wastage rate is higher, the laying time is longer, and if your floor isn’t perfectly level, additional prep work is needed before a tile can go down.

None of these are problems on their own. They’re only problems when the builder has already priced the job assuming something different. Getting your selections made before your contract is finalised means your builder can price the actual job, not an assumed version of it. It protects you from variations you didn’t see coming, and it gives you a realistic picture of what your home is going to cost before you’re committed.

It’s one of the most valuable things you can do at the start of a build, and it’s exactly what The Edit is designed to help with.

There’s a tap placement detail that’s easy to miss, and it’s worth knowing before your plans are locked in. The spout of your tap needs to reach the centre of the basin bowl, not just the centre of the bench.

These two things sound the same but they’re not. Especially on a wall-hung basin, a vessel style, or any basin that sits forward of centre on the bench. The position of the tap on the wall needs to account for the actual depth and position of the bowl, not just the midpoint of the vanity.

And then there’s spout length. A spout that’s too short will drip water onto the front rim of the basin every time you use it. A spout that’s too long reaches past the bowl and hits the back. The right spout length is determined by the basin you’ve chosen, and that decision needs to happen before tapware is selected, not after.

This isn’t a builder problem. It’s a sequencing problem. Tapware and basins are often selected separately, sometimes by different people, and the relationship between them doesn’t always get checked until it’s too late to change without cost.

It’s exactly the kind of detail that gets resolved early when you have a designer reviewing your selections together as a complete picture rather than as individual pieces. Worth a look at your plans if you haven’t already.

People assume interior design is about picking pretty things.

And yes, that’s part of it. But here’s what the rest of the week actually looks like.

Reviewing joinery plans the night before a site meeting so I can walk in knowing exactly what questions to ask and what to flag before anything gets built wrong.

Updating the finishes schedule after a client changes their mind on the bathroom tile, then cross-checking every other selection it touches because nothing in a build exists in isolation. Communicating those changes to the builder clearly and in writing, because a verbal conversation on site is not a paper trail and a paper trail is what protects everyone.

Chasing quotes from three suppliers on the same product because lead times have shifted and the original order is no longer going to land in time for the tiler.

Calling a client to explain why the tile set out has changed. Not because anyone made a mistake but because what was found after demolition meant the waste had to be slightly moved. Knowing how to explain them without panic is part of the job.

Locking in orders before the window closes, because some products have eight to twelve week lead times and if you miss the cut-off, you’re either waiting or you’re compromising.

The pretty part is real and it’s the part I love most. But a home that feels beautiful and works properly is built on a hundred small decisions and conversations that happen long before the styling goes in.

Hot take: mood boards are the most overrated part of the design process.
Hear me out. A mood board shows you a feeling. It doesn’t show you scale, proportion, material texture, how light changes throughout the day, or how your choices interact with each other in a real space.

Clients fall in love with mood boards. Then they stand in their finished bathroom and wonder why it doesn’t feel like the image.

Good design is built on decisions, not aesthetics. The mood board is the starting point, not the plan.

Do you want to know what I use instead?

Your shower niche is probably in the wrong spot.

It’s one of the most common things I flag on plans before anyone starts tiling.

The niche needs to sit within a single tile run. If it doesn’t, your tiler has to cut tiles to make it work, and that cut line is going to be visible every single day. The right position depends on your tile format, your grout lines, and exactly where that run starts on your wall.

This is the kind of detail that a good designer resolves before the waterproofing goes in. Not after. If your plans are still in progress, this is worth checking right now.

But if you have space go with a shower shelf like we did here. Same rules apply, height needs to align to your tiles.
