ABOUT

Originally from Switzerland, Valentine  has a Masters Degree in Business from Fribourg University. She worked at one of Switzerland's foremost auction houses in Zurich before moving to the United Kingdom to undertake a degree in Interior Architectural Design at the prestigious Inchbald School of Design in London.

Valentine then worked in the studios of Rabih Hage and Jill Scholes, putting into practice the learnings form the Inchbald.  She now has extensive experience of the full interior design process and the services clients require.   She also worked with Poggenpohl Kitchens, adding kitchen design as a speciality. 

Fluent in 5 languages Valentine has extensive experience sourcing and importing furnishings and furniture from throughout Europe, specialising in kitchens from Germany which until recently were often at a significant discount to sourcing in the UK for more high end choices, and tiles and furniture from Italy.  While Brexit and the pandemic have reduced the attractiveness of this option there can still be circumstances where it is worthwhile.
