“Design Storey are working with us to design and plan two extensions to our cottage. We were very impressed with the suggested options as there were solutions we had not considered which worked much better for our setting than our original ideas. Lydia has been very helpful and professional throughout, and has gone out of her way to help move our planning application forward. At every stage Design Storey have been professional and thorough, and have not minded our barrage of questions! We would not hesitate to recommend them.”

“We ordered our beautiful kitchen through Obsidian after gathering quotes from five suppliers. Obsidian were very competitive in price and were one of the only suppliers that would come to the house (without charging) before designing the kitchen. In my opinion, this was what swung it for us, as Karima's design was by far the best. Understandable really, as she had taken the time to see the space as well as see what the views were like etc. She did not bombard us with requests for measurements of walls like some of the other companies who were trying to design it without bothering to come out. There was very little we changed as we loved her simplistic design which made the best of the views and space. Karima was pivotal in the whole project, always checking minor details and often coming out to the house to see what the progress was. Her attention to detail was exemplary. We felt very well supported through the process, she was always on hand for advice and suggestions and was very good at directing the tradespeople when on site. Would highly recommend.”

“Lauren has provided interior design services to me on a number of occasions and I have been extremely pleased with every aspect of her work. Lauren has a brilliant eye for design and pays close attention to detail. She lalways listens to what is required and puts forward innovative and interesting ideas. She has sourced materials that look beautiful in my home and has always ensured the finished products are of a high standard. I would recommend Lauren to anyone looking for an inspirational and thoughtful interior designer.”

“I instructed Steev at Brock Charles in relation to the design of 2 new build properties. Steev provided a very efficient service resulting in 2 strong planning permissions.”

“We’d been planning on changing our bathroom for some time but the bathroom companies we’d approached hadn’t been able to produce a design we liked. The space had to be totally redesigned, to enable us to have a large shower, plenty of storage and a clean, modern look. Anna worked really well with us, and quickly came up with a proposal which met our requirements and made much better use of the space, despite various challenges. She had lots of good ideas and suggested a wide range of fixtures and fittings. Anna provided us different budget options, giving us good flexibility on how much we wanted to spend. We particularly liked the fact that she obtained quotes from three different contractors and project managed the works from start to finish. We never thought we could afford an interior designer, but because Anna bought everything at discounted prices this covered most of her fees. We are extremely happy with the service Anna provided as she interpreted our brief brilliantly.”

“Vahena is a very professional, gifted and passionate interior architect. We needed to remodel an outdated 1960's house we had recently purchased to make it our home and Vahena provided great input as much in terms of spatial design and layout as in terms of kitchen or bathroom design. She provided concept boards, samples for all the materials she recommended, costing for all the furniture and fittings, from floorings to bathroom tiles, kitchen to bathroom furniture and fittings, light fixtures to window treatments. She challenged us to step out of our comfort zone on some aspects of the design and we are so happy we did: the bespoke staircase she designed for us is one of the most stunning elements of our new home. Vahena is truly easy to work with and made the project hassle and stress-free for us! I wish we had used her services with our previous property, it would have avoided us a lot of headaches and time spent working with the architect, sourcing and managing a builder - all that with both my husband and I having a very young family and 2 full-time jobs. I highly recommend Vahena for large property renovation projects. Ours simply would not have happened without her. If anyone living around Cheltenham (UK) is thinking about using her services and would like to see what was achieved with our house, get in touch!”

“Professional, original, on budget beautiful customised interiors. Loates designs were efficient and thorough. They treated my penthouse design and fit out as a personal project and even helped manage trades that had nothing to do with them. A very reliable, warm and overall fantastic interior design firm, highly recommended.”

“Over the past 18 months we have worked with Dee from Golddust Interior design on several of her high end staging projects, providing her with furniture hire. Dee has a real eye for detail, her ability to visualise and use staging techniques focuses on improving a property's appeal by transforming it into a luxurious, elegant and welcoming home. Dee works tirelessly on every detail and utilises our wide variety of furniture ranges producing amazing results for her clients each and every time. Dee is always professional and is a pleasure to work with.”

“I worked with Lorna to manufacture some bespoke cabinets. Lorna's attention to detail and understanding of the fabric of the property made my job easier when it came building the cabinets. I thought Lorna's process of putting together a tight brief and detailed design was very professional and made the whole exercise run like clockwork.”
