Welcome

You made it here! Welcome!

I had many ideas floating around for what the first Journal entry should be. Business or Design? Residential or Commercial? Corporate-sounding or a bit more personal? In the end, I thought a straight forward “hello” and “how ya doing?” would suffice.

To put a time stamp on this thing: it’s Friday 12th November 2021. The spectre of Christmas is looming and a New Year will soon be upon us. It’s just over one year since we heard the good news that a vaccine for C-19 might be available, and about 18 months since that first lockdown in March 2020 (shudder). Like most, last year is one I haven’t struggled to leave behind. What an utter car crash of a year, right? But without it; you, I, and Moxie Interior Design Co. wouldn’t be here today.

How it all began…

Having worked under a corporate banner for the best part of fifteen years, 2020 was the year I finally took the leap into running my own business.

Whilst I could make it sound like a smooth and zen-like transition from one to the other, I don’t think I’d fool anyone. Covid happened and I was unequivocally shoved off the edge without a whiff of ceremony or even a handshake. The rug of regular income was well and truly yanked from under my corporate backside, and I finally hit a now-or-never moment to step into an idea I’d had since graduation: What if I did this for myself?

One year on and here we are. Several projects and even more happy clients under my belt, and I’m well and truly sold.

But enough about me. This Journal section is all about adding some more personality to the website: some thoughts, inspiration, behind-the-scenes shots, how-to’s, you know the kind of thing. So if you’re here and looking for a particular something-something, please let me know and I’ll include it in the future. Drop me a note via the contact page by clicking the button below.
