AN INSPIRATIONAL SELECTION BOX OF STYLE CHOICES TO HELP YOU DISCOVER YOUR PERSONAL STYLE AND CREATE AN ASSURED, COHESIVE INTERIOR

Discover your style

I have created the Interior Design Toolkit to help you decorate and style your home successfully.

Inside you will find over 70 inspirational cards depicting beautiful interiors in a variety of styles. The kit examines ten styles in detail and your results might be a mixture of any of them. You will be surprised. You might be contemporary, coastal or boho.

Create a mood board

Use your favourite images from the toolkit as a starting point to make a fabulous mood board for your home. Gather wallpaper, fabric and paint samples and pin them all together to create a stunning interior.

Once you have discovered your style – for example, you might find that you are industrial/contemporary - follow the advice but don't feel restricted by it. Try looking for metal flooring, but it doesn’t have to be real metal; it could be a hard wearing lino in a metallic colour. Scaffolding planks are available from salvage yards, but if they are out of your DIY comfort zone, find a coffee table made out of a palette on Etsy. Anglepoise lamps come in all shapes and sizes and prices and exposed brick can be bought in convenient rolls.

My mission

I am Alison Gibb, interiors writer and stylist. I have been creating features for interiors magazines for over twenty years. I want the Interior Design Toolkit to help you make your home exactly how you want it to be!

Putting a home together is a joy, but brings with it the challenge of having to make long-lasting, sometimes expensive choices. True style is built up in layers: it is a cumulative effect of lots of personal decisions.

Once you have completed the Interior Design Toolkit and discovered what works for you, your interior will become ever more assured and cohesive as your knowledge of your personal look increases. You will grow in confidence and - thanks to the useful starting point of your beautiful mood board - your home will start to appear exactly as you wish. All with the added benefit that knowing your style will enable you to make the right shopping decisions; expensive mistakes will be a thing of the past!
