I think there are a few probable scenarios. She may have intended to do the entire design job herself, as she first alluded to; haphazardly bought a few pieces, realized she was in over her head and went running to a design firm to bail her out.As she’d chosen the sofa and table herself, it may be that the designer she worked with was surprised when she saw them and knows they impacted on her plan. I doubt very much that that “credenza” was intended to end up squashed between the sofa and dining table, facing that way and looking too tall over the back of the sofa. It now looks very ginger next to that dining table which is also a little too country for the tiling.
All this points to very bad planning between the two of them. They should have established the dimensions and materials of those pieces Vic sourced and checked everything was still workable. It isn’t. The sofa, which is way too big for their needs anyway, would only work in that space if everything else was allowed to breathe. The table looks gaudy on the rug and there are too many tables in general. The green cushions on the sofa looked lost and don’t fit in with the over-relaxed style of the sofa, plus they drew the eye to a big gap between the back sofa cushions. If either of them had any sense, they’d be honest and remove some of the items.
There is no way this would be a workable space as a studio anyway, you couldn’t swing a cat in there, let alone set up camera equipment and props.
She had a firm at the start. She posted her little flat lay with swatches and samples almost immediately after announcing the purchase. Might've been a different firm though, especially if they got wind of her trying to skirt building rules and didn't want to be sucked in to the drama.I think there are a few probable scenarios.

Or, she hired the design firm at the start of the project but ignored their furniture plan and their selections and insisted on ordering an over-scaled sofa just because she was in love with it.
Darn - sorry! Hit the wrong button! To continue, the first thing any reputable design firm does, before anything is selected, is to take the measurements from the architectural plans (or measure the dimensions of the space if plans are unavailable). From there, you draft a furniture plan, showing ideal placement of the furniture, along with optimal dimensions for all pieces. Only then do you begin the selection process, and you avoid costly mistakes and end up with a harmonious, well-balanced room you’ll enjoy living in.I think there are a few probable scenarios.

I, too, thought she had hired a firm. Happy that my memory isn’t failing me!Little Miss "I'm vegan, but buy tons of leather" got herself a down couch. Classic.
She's got a whole mishmash of interior styles. The MCM sideboard looks a state. They should've paid to get it restored. The dining table and chairs would go better in Lydia's "cunt-try" home. It also makes me so irrationally angry she's just like "let's set this all up in 24 hours!" with her weird cackle-y laugh when I'm over here still looking for the right coffee table and 2 dining chairs 2 years after moving into my home. I guess when you can throw money you've earned selling your soul to perfume and makeup brands, you can just snap and get what you want

And, don’t forget “gorge” as in gorgeous. She must have said that at least a dozen times - makes me cringe.I rarely watch her anymore but I caught her two latest vlogs (greece and the apartment) and what struck me more than ever is how limited her vocabulary is. She reminded me in a strange way of Trump. She's got a few different words she mixes and matches and just about everything is "unreal". The ooh-ing at everything and the seemingly manic excitement was really cringe. (And the lisp was out of control; I have a similar lisp but hers is so pronounced and jarringly distracting).
Because you know what's absent from her many re-dos of her tacky Milton Keynes country house?I rarely watch her anymore but I caught her two latest vlogs (greece and the apartment) and what struck me more than ever is how limited her vocabulary is.

I think she hired a team, got a good price on the premise that they would be featured in her "studio". And now thats she has to turn it into a home and make it utlra private as to not be outed; she lost the team.I think she hired the firm but cant help interfering and thats why it looks such a mess.
Yeah, and if this interior decorating firm does mostly commercial spaces, having to switch quickly to decorating a residential space was probably a bit like "ehhhI think she aired a team, got a good price on the premise that they would be featured in her "studio". And now thats she has to turn it into a home and make it utlra private as to not be outed; she lost the team.
