Creating the ultimate living experience for you starts from the floor up

With a background in flooring, interior painting, and a diploma in interior design, Bridget has a natural eye for style and colour. Bridget embraces her love for midcentury furniture and quirky décor so you’ll find her spending her weekends perusing antique stores or rearranging the décor in her home.

What is your best styling tip?

I like to use rugs, cushions, and throws to tie areas together and put a ‘bow on top’ of the space. These elements offer layers and texture to your area that take it from furniture in a room, to a curated thoughtout corner of your home. I favour textiles comprised of natural fibres and surfaces made of raw timber and stones to achieve calm and nature-inspired spaces.

What’s trending in the world of flooring?

I believe as a result of the Covid hangover, people are spending more time at home. We’re entertaining more, and more inclined to invite friends over than go out. Simply, we have adjusted to staying in! Because of this swing, laminate flooring has become an increasingly requested option (in more open areas too) as it’s more resilient to the wear and tear of life and can sustain the foot traffic of a busy household.

Why do you think the trend is going to continue?

New builds especially are getting smaller but smarter. Homes are more diverse when the same type of flooring is used in open spaces to utilise the area. You have free reign to move your furniture from whichever corner of the house to wherever you wish.

What is the best hard flooring for your home?

I have two active dogs and a partner in trades, so my house is hectic to say the least! Laminate is my preferred product for our home as so far it has withstood claws, dirty boots and the sun through my floor to ceiling bi-fold doors.
