Expert guidance for the moments that matter in your renovation

Architectural and interior design clarity, exactly when you need it, delivered one-to-one.

A calm, strategic process that helps you make decisions with confidence.

The moment you’re in

Renovating a home should feel purposeful. Instead, it often becomes a maze - endless decisions, conflicting advice, layouts that almost work (but don’t quite), and pressure from contractors to give answers you’re not ready to make.

You’ve done the research. You’ve saved the inspiration. You’ve tried to piece things together from Google, Instagram, Pinterest, magazines, and well-meaning friends. But none of it is remotely connected to your life, your home, or the way you hope to live. None of it solves your challenges or deals with your frustrations.

This is the point where projects start to drift quietly from their original vision, timeframe, and budget - and you end up settling for less.

Studio Sessions are designed to stop that drift and bring your home back into focus.

Three primary options

Access the expert architectural and interior design guidance that’s tailored to your project. Each Studio Session begins with a focused conversation around your specific goals and priorities, with a flexible agenda shaped by you.

£249  •  Online

Power Hour:

Best for one room, one focused challenge, or one core decision. Often clients book this as a first step and go on to book a 3-Hour Workshop or 6-Hour Immersion once they see what's possible.

£747  •  Online

The 3-Hour Session

Suitable for multiple rooms, several focused or linked challenges, or multiple core decisions.

£1,494  •  In Person (Central London) + Lunch

The 6-Hour Intensive

A detailed, grounded deep dive into your project, bringing together architectural clarity, interior design strategy, and thoughtful planning.

If you’re unsure where to begin or have a question, I’m here to help. Sometimes a quick conversation is all you need.

Signs you’re ready
for a studio session

I.

You’re making decisions alone - and second-guessing every one of them.


II.

Your layout almost works, but something fundamental still feels off.


III.

You’re overwhelmed by options and struggling to see a cohesive whole.


IV.

You’re preparing to brief a contractor and want to avoid costly mistakes.

V.

You can picture how you want to live, but not what that looks like in design terms.

VI.

You’re losing clarity on what comes next and need someone to look at the whole picture with you.

  • "First of all, thank you so much for the session on Wednesday - it was so helpful! I was worried I wouldn’t be able to take everything in after a night of zero sleep, but I needn’t have stressed - I did get so much out of it. And as a result feel equipped to move forward with confidence now, for which I am very grateful."

    Client, The Studio Sessions

  • “We couldn’t be happier with the result and would highly recommend Spaces Refined courses and consultations to anyone looking to create a space that is very special.”

    Client, The Studio Sessions

  • “This has been a great experience and we feel very privileged to have Catherine’s expertise & creativity — it’s a service that I would happily recommend.”

    Client, The Studio Sessions

  • "The website is not only very clear and appealing, it also, from the very first few lines, reads as though you are able to see inside my head … on that basis I have no doubt that one of the sessions would suit me perfectly given where we are at with our project."

    Client, The Studio Sessions

  • "I am so grateful for the meeting we had and I really enjoyed working with you. Your pragmatic approach was so reassuring and without it I think I would have really lost my confidence (and certainly any enjoyment) to keep going with the loft."
