About

Welcome, my name is Marianna Szekely, independent interior furnishing and decor consultant, and I am here to make your choices easier when it comes to buying furniture or any decor element on Cayman Island.

Consultancy Fees

I offer the first consultation for free then the next two hours consultancy fee in your own home is 250.00 KYD.

If your project is particularly complex, more time might be needed but this will be established during our initial phone conversation so you will always know what to expect.

Loka Ventures is a mobile service, therefore if you are leading a very busy lifestyle, and cannot be present in furnishing shops at business hours, or you don’t want to sit in traffic just to find out that only the other shop has what you need, if you rather spend your free time in a relaxed environment, if you are new to the island and takes longer to find what you are looking for, or if you are not always on island, I can do all errands and come back to you with all information of your purchasing plan.

Alternatively, I will be happy to make you a mood board, provide drawings and full shopping list or carry out further work should you wish me to progress the project in anyway per hourly rate 100 KYD or fixed interior design package fee.

What I Offer

Free first consultation

The first personal meeting is free of charge.

Involving furniture up-cycling and high quality second hand buying if needed

If you require, I assist you to buy materials with you / for you

We can help for you to choose in hardware stores and find hidden workshops which are not even on the map (maybe you don't need much just new wall paint and some new accent pieces).

Did you know that and every day object can be turned into an elegant side table?

You can have your old furniture painted pink if that's what you need.

An old ladder can have a new function, and the old mirror can have a new frame.

These things and more called up-cycling, and it is highly functional and creative.

We love to be conscious about the environment. It is good to be open-minded for decor solutions.
