HOME DESIGN STRATEGYYou don’t need a bigger budget. You need a better strategy.
I teach homeowners how to make every decision for their build or renovation, in the right order, from the floor plan to the finishes.
Course pre-sale now open. $1,097 until 25 October, then $1,497.
The enemy isn't spending.
It's wasted spending.
A room costs the same whether you use it every day or three times a year. At $5,000 a square metre, a spare room can run to $80,000, money that never made it to your kitchen.
Meet Ania Mikina
For over twenty years, I've watched people pour their savings, hopes and dreams into building and renovating, only to run over budget and out of money for the things they actually wanted. It's almost always avoidable. I co-founded Zephyr and Stone to show women where to spend their money, so they get the home they're dreaming of, in budget.
