Let’s get to know each other

If your home’s not quite working for you, maybe life’s shifted, things feel a bit off, or you’re just ready for it to feel more pulled together, I’m here to help.

I work with everyday people who want a home that feels calm, personal, and in tune with how they live. It’s never a one-size-fits-all approach. Just thoughtful, down-to-earth support to help you feel more confident in your choices.

With nearly 30 years in creative design, I bring a grounded, collaborative approach to every project. Based in Selwyn and working online across New Zealand, I’m here to make the process feel manageable, meaningful and completely yours.

  • Room with a View are fantastic! I am always indecisive and unsure of what to buy to make a room look the way I want it to. I asked for help. Jane was wonderful, finding the furniture and extras to give me the exact look and feel I was after. The process was very simple and gave me the confidence I needed furnish my home.

  • From the very first consultation, Jane truly listened to my preferences and paid careful attention to every detail I mentioned. She took the time to understand my vision and needs, ensuring that the final design perfectly reflected my style, budget and functional requirements.

  • Working with Jane at Room with a View was a total delight! She’s so warm and really got my personality, weaving it into every detail of my rooms.

  • The vision board has been everything! It has guided me especially with figuring out what we can do with finances. It’s given us the “ultimate” and we’ve worked back from there to our budget. Still aligning to the board but with adjustments.
