  • Nothing is booked until Katherine accepts your request. She then sends bank transfer details, and your booking is guaranteed once she confirms your payment has been received.

  • Plans and any relevant information are needed at least 48 hours before the call. Otherwise the call will be cancelled or rearranged.

  • A video call to talk through your project and what the studio can offer for the design.
