It seems like ages ago when we started Rev but it's really only a matter of weeks, Team Moregeous have done amazingly well under Marcin's strict guidance to get this huge six bedroomed property stripped out, re-wired, re-plumbed and plastered in such a short time. We have a good team going right now, I'm very... Continue Reading →
I think that’s college out the window. Again.
Three years ago I thought it would be a good idea, as the injury to my back had put paid to any ripping out of fireplaces and skip filling, to get some interior design qualifications. It's all very well having pulled apart tens of houses and put them back together again, but some clients like... Continue Reading →
Upcycling an old bookcase with Farrow & Ball Dimiti and wallpaper
As would any interior designer worth their salt, I started to panic a little about the filming the other week, especially given the lumps of plaster randomly falling off walls and large damp patches dotted around my house.

Maybe it's a man/woman Mars/Venus thing because I don't know many women who salivate with delight when the conversation turns to sound quality,... Continue Reading →
Saucy wallpaper, vintage shoes and halloween cupcakes!
Inspired by the AWFUL landlords on last week's Panorama, we've been busy catching up on all the little jobs and to-do's for our rentals this week. Ok, I've been in the office doing the accounts but also making lists as Mr M valiantly works through them. God, I love him. As a 'Happy Halloween' and... Continue Reading →
Design: Hotel bathrooms – why so little thought?
Why is it that, unless you're staying in a eye-wateringly expensive boutique venue, hotel bathrooms are so relentlessly poor in the UK? When Head Office allocates the budget, £x for glossy brochures, £x for fancy foyer, £x for bland corporate decor, what voice in their head says Naaaaaa, don't bother putting any real thought into...
