Your Questions, Answered
What do you do exactly?
I help English-speaking homeowners in France bridge the gap between owning a house and truly feeling at home in it.
My work begins once the big decisions are made — the furniture is in, but the home still feels unfinished, unfamiliar or incomplete. I focus on the objects you live with every day: tableware, kitchen essentials, textiles, lighting, scent and decorative pieces. These are the details that shape how comfortable and at ease you feel in a space.
Each project is personal. Some clients arrive knowing exactly what they want and just need help navigating French retail. Others need more guidance from the start. Either way, the result is the same — a personalised linked sheet with everything chosen for you, in English, ready to buy.
The Soft Landing is especially useful if you feel overwhelmed by options, frustrated by the language barrier, or simply don’t have the hours to spend searching.
As I work via video consultations, I can work with you wherever in the World you are currently based and wherever your home is in France.

No preparation needed — just come as you are.
Are you an interior designer?
No — and that distinction matters.
Interior designers typically work on the structure, layout and visual scheme of a space. The Soft Landing comes in at a different stage — once the room is furnished but still feels incomplete. I focus on the practical and personal details that make a house feel finished: the objects you use, the textures you touch, the scents you come home to.
My role isn’t to redesign your home. It’s to help you settle into it.
