My recent appearance in the Nostalgia ‘soulful homes’ video series
In summer 2025, the Nostalgia film team invited me to be a part of their independent documentary series. Nostalgia create visual poems that capture the beauty and intimacy of a person’s space. To accompany the home footage, I invited them to Liguria, my Italian homeland, to hunt for trompe l’œil and show them the local towns where my deeper connection with colour lies.
I hope the video helps explain my roots, my inspiration, and my abiding love of colour.
Produced by Lena Khokhlova and filmed by Ilya Ilyukhin.
SUMMER 2026 WORKSHOPS
Delysian Colour System training
I offer training in my unique Delysian Colour System. The training is split into two workshops: Part 1: Aesthetic Narrative, and Part 2: Colour Perspective.
Contact me if you’d like advice on my workshops.
Part 1
Aesthetic Narrative
25 April, 27 June, 18 July
A day exploring how colour reframes the interaction with an interior space. In this hands-on workshop, you’ll examine the combined roles of visual information, personal bias and creativity for producing the foundation of a colour scheme.
Discover how to apply colour as a communication tool and for shaping behaviour and experience, as you delve into what constitutes an ‘aesthetic narrative’. Learn more about curating colour with meaning and purpose for creating unique spaces to live in that, ultimately, help regulate the nervous system.
Part 2
Colour Perspective
16 May, 28 June, 19 July
Discover the principles of treating colour as a moving, organic element, focusing on combinations that are grounded in the natural phenomena of highlight and shadow. A more advanced approach to colour appreciation.
In this hands-on workshop, using my proprietary Delysian Colour System and real-life examples, you’ll practice working with colour in a three-dimensional way. You’ll learn how to apply hues more broadly to transition harmoniously between rooms, and surfaces with measureable, light-informed sensibilities that enhance a scheme.

Two dates chosen by you at time of booking
New for 2026: book part 1 and 2 of my DCS training at the same time and save 20% on part 2.
A completely unique approach to colour education with combined learning methods of experience-immersion, theory, and practice, applied over your chosen study duration. This is particularly useful for new designers or those wanting to take their time to process their notes and worksheets, or practice, in-between the two training days.
Discover how heritage, place and identity can inform schemes that make unique and nostalgic spaces to live in, as you interact with the colours and aesthetic of my Georgian cottage. Using your own case study, you will then produce a narrative profile and map, applying the principles taught in part 1 of the Delysian Colour System, to make your scheme.
Then, at a later date, complete the part 2 workshop on how to read colour in a three-dimensional way, focusing on combinations that are grounded in the natural phenomena of highlight and shadow. Learn how to apply the principles of colour perspective and placement to advance your Aesthetic Narrative scheme using designer fabrics and other surface materials.
Take my new part 1+2 course (full-day), and save 20% on both parts 1 and 2.
