Sustainable Design in Bracknell, Berkshire

“The Decorcafe supplied me with a Decorbuddy to help with the interior design of my new apartment. When I moved in I new the feel of what I wanted: a feeling of space and a stylish look that was comfortable and easy to maintain. My assigned Decorbuddy listened to my needs and recognised that I hadn't a clue what to get - only a budget. Within a week she'd sorted out furnishing concepts for everything: the sitting room, bedrooms, bathrooms, and the media systems. All within budget. She organised the delivery, the installation and the little details while I was away and I came back to a great surprise. Would thoroughly recommend this service.”

“Claudia is a consummate professional. Her ideas and taste are original, beautiful and creative. The end-design does not look like it's been ripped out of an interior magazine but rather something unique that reflected our lifestyle and taste . She tirelessly goes to every significant fair and expo to keep her ideas fresh, explores all options before laying out her proposal to the client and is incredibly receptive to feedback. No detail is spared. But above all, her legacy is to create a home; comfort and functionality with great great style. I can’t recommend her highly enough. K Louis NW3, London”

“Very functional and well-designed studio: smart use of space with plenty of storage. Living area is pleasant, with a large sofa, comfortable working space and an additional compact table that could extend to a 2m dining table. The murphy bed above the sofa is easy to use, large and very cosy. When lying in bed watching the large flat screen TV on the opposite wall, you feel like you are in a pretty and serene hotel room Bathroom is a very good size, clean and new. The kitchen is fully equipped and very bright, featuring a sliding door that could be closed when cooking A very tastefully decorated studio which makes truly impressive use of space: comfortable, functional and pleasant to spend time in. And very importantly, wonderful landlords who responded to my every need in no time. Thank you!”

“Avinu designed and installed our home media and computer systems in a new apartment in 2008. Messrs. Roberts and Farquar were knowledgeable and imaginative in the design and professional and and punctual in its installation. The after sales service has been attentive. They are delightful people to work with and have become personal friends.”

“Zulufish have now completed a couple of jobs for me. The first was a full commercial design and build of our studio in Notting Hill, from start to finish the level of service received was exemplary. The brief was to turn a relatively tight space into a hub of creativity and they certainly delivered. My second experience took residential form on a property in Chiswick, it was essentially a full loft conversion and side return which once again was delivered exactly as we could have hoped. I could not recommend them more highly.”

“They recently completed the full refurbishment of our home in Hampstead. We don't live in London full time hence it was great to hand over the project into the capable hands of Homeconcepts. We were regularly kept you up to date with emails, photos and texts keeping us up to date as the project progressed. It was a large scope including initial designs, heating, A/C, flooring, kitchen, bathrooms, a full rewire, plastering and pretty much everything else including furnishings to get the house finished. I think our biggest headache during the works was deciding on the paint schemes Homeconcepts presented, my wife loves yellows, I love greys! The standard of workmanship was was excellent, particularly the Joinery in the Living Room that runs through to the Kitchen area and the Bedroom wardrobes with the hidden walk through to the Ensuite. I could continue but simply will leave it that they're really did a great job!”

“I asked SA designs to design and complete a kitchen for me in my old house. The service provided by Steve was amazing with incredible attention to detail. When finished, it was stunning! I loved every minute me and my family spent in there afterwards. We've just moved and I've contacted them again recently to talk about my next SA Designs kitchen, due to start in 2017! I can't wait!”

“Kantec was the building contractor on our recent project to build a rear extension to a 1930s three bedroom semi-detached house. Both the project manager and the builders did a very good job and were all friendly and helpful. It was the first time that we had been involved in major building work and the project manager was very good at explaining the work that was being done, how the project was progressing, any problems that arose (all were relatively minor) and the options that were available to us (either to address those problems or improve on the design). Very important to us was the detailed scope of work that specified a cost for each activity and which, together with the schedule, provided a clear basis for the project, indicating when work would be done and the associated payments due. Any variations that arose were also clearly presented, following discussions with us, and consequently we had confidence that the work was under control at all times. Overall we would not hesitate in recommending Kantec as a building contractor for a similar project.”

“VC Design was recommended to me and I would do the same without hesitation. We contacted Veronica about drawing up plans for our ground floor extension and although conceptually we had a clear idea of what we wanted to she was invaluable in advising us how to best use the space and our options within the parameters of planning. She also contacted previous clients and arranged for us to see the work they had done, this allowed us to see first hand some of the ideas we had discussed. Veronica submitted the planning application and we have now received our approval - a job very well done.”

“We used M H Costa for a total refurbishment of the N Road house. The level of craftsmanship they provided allowed the architect to bring the house back to it's period routes using good design executed beautifully by the Costa team. The team were impeccable effective with their time, they worked cleanly and left no margin for error. They stayed on track and were (give or take 3%) within the initial price for the tendered job. I found them a real pleasure to deal with and we could not be happier to live in what is now our beautiful home. I would have absolutely no reservation in recommending them to anyone committed to doing a project well.”
