IN HOME CONSULT 1.5HRS
FULL PROJECT PACKAGE
KITCHEN, BATHROOM, LAUNDRY DESIGN
KCD offers a 1.5 hour in-home consultation, created for clients who would like expert guidance without committing to a full design package. It’s a simple, supportive way to gain clarity and direction for your project.
A 1.5 hour in-home consultation is ideal if:
-
You’d like an in-person meeting to talk through your project in detail and are unsure whether a full design package is the right next step.
-
You’re working through a small‑scale project or design challenge and would benefit from expert advice to help you move forward.
During the consultation, KCD can advise on:
-
Renovation ideas
-
Colour palettes and material selections
-
Furniture, lighting and styling direction
-
The finishing touches for a nearly complete space
You’ll also receive a follow‑up email summarising the ideas, recommendations and specifications discussed during your consultation.
A fixed fee of $600 inc GST is charged for this service.
Travel fees apply for locations outside metro Melbourne. If preferred, an online consultation can be arranged instead.
Building or renovating your home involves many decisions, and it’s easy for the process to feel overwhelming. Every choice, from layouts and joinery to fixtures, finishes and lighting, shapes how your home will function and feel long term.

We collaborate with architects, building designers, engineers and other consultants to deliver cohesive, well resolved outcomes. Throughout the build, we remain involved as needed to uphold design intent and ensure your home is consistent, resolved and ready to live in.

This service is centred on materials, finishes and colour direction, a focused selection process without layout changes or joinery design. We will guide you through the choices that define the mood and identity of your home, from flooring and tiles to cabinetry, benchtops and paint. Every selection is intentional, cohesive and grounded in years of colour and material experience across residential projects.
You’ll receive a clear, builder‑ready schedule so your project can progress smoothly. My approach is practical, balanced and deeply informed, ensuring your palette feels connected, timeless and aligned with your architectural plans.

INTERIOR STYLING
When a home is mostly complete but the styling feels unfinished, this service brings everything together. Floating shelves that don’t look balanced, a living room needing a few thoughtful layers, or surfaces that feel unresolved, an in-home styling session provides practical, hands‑on support tailored to the way the client lives.
Existing pieces are refined and key additions may be introduced where helpful. Shelves are arranged, surfaces styled, artwork placed and decorative objects curated to create a clear visual flow. The result is a home that feels considered, connected and effortlessly put together.
Key services include:
-
In-Home Styling Session
-
Shelf & Surface Styling
-
Artwork Placement

GET IN TOUCH IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO LEARN MORE ABOUT OUR SERVICES
"Katherine helped us with a refresh of our newly purchased house in Ascot Vale in late 2020. From one look at her portfolio, we knew that we'd be on the same page, and so it proved throughout the project. She acted as both designer and project coordinator, arranging and liaising with trades, and her creativity and attention to detail was evident in her recommendations around layout, fittings and small-scale building works. Her drawings and plans were detailed, comprehensive and easy to interpret, and the project ran smoothly despite the disruption of multiple lockdowns. Her communication is excellent, and she is extremely adept at working creatively to a clients brief and within their budget. We wholeheartedly recommend Katherine and wouldn't hesitate to engage her on any future projects."
