Country Kitchen Designers in Coventry, West Midlands

“After speaking with several interior designers I contacted Katherine and knew from our first call that she totally understood what we were trying to achieve with the renovation of our very derelict Victorian farmhouse! This was not our first project so we had really strong ideas for the design and final finish, but taking on the huge task of project managing the build ourselves meant Katherine’s advise and guidance throughout was invaluable in helping finalise decisions on lighting, paint colours and the like when decision fatigue was at it worst! It has been an absolute delight working with Katherine, her flexible, intuitive approach was exactly what we needed. The house has surpassed our expectations and Katherine has very much been part of that realisation. If we ever take on another project (we won’t!) Katherine would be at the top of my contact list! Thank you so much for helping us create our beautiful forever home, your expert touch is certainly felt here :)”
