Nurture Your Ideas
"Transform dreams into achievable goals — separate what serves from what doesn't"
From Vision to Viable Plan
You've planted your vision. Now it's time to nurture those ideas into something concrete and achievable. This is where dreams meet reality — not to crush them, but to shape them into a plan that actually serves your life.
Like our Winnowing process, this stage helps you separate what truly serves your sanctuary vision from what's simply appealing but ultimately distracting. The goal isn't perfection — it's clarity and focus.
What You’ll Recieve
Project Brief Template
A comprehensive framework that transforms your sanctuary vision into a clear, actionable project brief that architects, contractors, and you can work with confidently.
Template Sections Include:
Project objectives and success criteria
Spatial requirements and flow priorities
Functionality vs. aesthetics balance
Constraints and non-negotiables
Timeline and phasing considerations
Budget parameters and value priorities
Professional team requirements
Budget Framework
A comprehensive budget planning system designed specifically for renovation projects, incorporating VAT considerations and realistic cost planning.
Budget Framework Includes:
Professional fees breakdown and planning
VAT optimization strategies
Construction cost categories with realistic ranges
Risk assessment and contingency planning
Cash flow timing and financing options
Project Programme Planner
A timeline planner that helps you sequence your renovation to minimize disruption and maximize efficiency.
Programme Features:
Phase-by-phase project sequencing
Critical milestone identification
Seasonal timing considerations
Buffer time for unexpected discoveries
Why This Matters
Without this foundation, renovation decisions become reactive rather than intentional. You'll find yourself choosing materials, layouts, and features based on what looks good rather than what serves your actual needs for restoration and wellbeing.
This template has been refined through years of creating sanctuary spaces for London homeowners. It ensures your renovation journey begins with wisdom, not wishful thinking.

Your Guide
My path has led from crafting iconic projects with Renzo Piano, David Chipperfield, and Junya Ishigami, to creating intimate sanctuaries for London's homeowners. Having also transformed two homes of my own, I understand both the professional expertise needed and the real challenges of working with limited budgets.
Through fourteen a.m., I bring sophisticated project management tools from commercial architecture into residential design, because your home sanctuary deserves the same careful attention as any landmark project.
