Design Consultation Professionals in Bishops Stortford, Hertfordshire

“Nine Lives and Philippa were wonderful at making my house feel more like a home. We did not live in all of our rooms downstairs as we were not sure how to use them. Philippa came and quickly worked out the best use of space to allow flow in our home. She is great at picking out colours and textures and finds material and wallpaper that I would never have been able to contemplate. Everyone that comes into our home always asks questions about the wallpapers and the fabrics we used. I am really thankful to Philippa for her hard work and attention to detail. We will go back for more advice in the future.”

“I utilised Caroline’s two hour consultation service (£95) as I desperately needed some advice and ideas for my neglected 1930s hallway. As I don’t live locally, I gave Caroline some ideas and photos via text message about what I liked and didn’t like, my preferred colour palate, and what my priorities were. After some questions from Caroline and some very useful exercises looking at existing spaces and colours, and how we used the hall, she offered some simple solutions which were easily implemented. Simple things like changing the positioning of the existing lighting made a dramatic difference. Caroline then compiled a mood board for me on Pinterest with ideas for paint colours, storage solutions and suggestions for light fittings. She also made recommendations on how I could achieve a modern and coordinated hall that tied in with the existing 1930s features, yet wasn’t overly ‘matchy’. This was complemented with detailed information about sourcing items and recommending paint finishes. Caroline very cleverly sketched her ideas onto my original photo to give me an idea of what my hall could look like. This was really invaluable in helping me ‘see’ my new hall before I started work. I felt that Caroline very quickly ‘got’ what I was after. She was really friendly & approachable, responsive and offered really helpful, practical and straightforward suggestions. She didn’t impose her own tastes and encouraged me to develop my own. Initially I felt that I didn’t really know what I wanted but after conversations with Caroline, I began to gain confidence. I cannot recommend Caroline’s service highly enough. She was great fun to work with and the entire process was really enjoyable.”

“When we moved house last year we wanted to make our home look and feel special. Natalie Roukin Interiors managed to do exactly that, transforming dated décor into a beautiful stylish home. Natalie was fantastic to work with, she really took the time to understand what we liked and disliked and gave us lots of options to choose from that were in budget. We are absolutely delighted with the results and would definitely recommend using Natalie Roukin Interiors to transform your room or entire home. Nadine – St Albans”

“Alicia helped me redesign my leaving room and it was amazing! She truly understood the emotions I wanted to achieve with the new interior and made my leaving room my perfect space! Working with Alicia was fantastic, she was creative and quickly put my random ideas into a cohesive plan. She simply understood me and my house :-)”

“My girlfriend and I engaged Trish in 2022 to completely remodel our house. Trish was an ideal match for us and did an amazing job of combining our individual personalities in her design so that every room included accents which appealed to each of us. She has a great sense of taste and made endless suggestions, without ever forcing her views upon us. She was also very good at offering scaled alternatives which allowed us to remain within our budget. Trish was very committed and closely involved throughout the project and remained on-hand to discuss minor touches and snagging items many months later – I can honestly recommend her as a top design partner and hope to work with her again in the future”

“I was lucky enough to discover Alison through instagram and am very pleased to have opted for her 'Helping Hand' design package. We have various storage conundrums and with seemingly infinite ways of solving them (none of which seemed quite ideal) it was incredibly useful to have Alison's experienced, practical and creative ideas to narrow things down. I now feel much braver and look forward to taking the plunge!”

“Купили с мужем квартиру, но вкусы у нас сильно разные. Мария придумала, как угодить нам всем, за что большое ей спасибо, потому что нам обоим очень нравится наш красивый и уютный дом. Да и общаться было каждый раз очень легко и приятно. Настоящий профессионал!”

“We were a little wary about signing up an interior designer for our extension project because most of the other professionals we used seemed to over-charge and tended to cease involvement as soon as they were paid. But Randa was different and undoubtedly the best value of any of the the professionals we used. To begin with she solved a problem with the interior walls that immediately saved us hundreds of pounds and overall she took the extra time and effort to see the project and her ideas through to completion. She was generous with her time, included a design for our kitchen even though that was not part of her remit and answered our questions promptly when we needed her advice. She also kept an eye open to make sure the builders weren't taking short-cuts and generally seemed to care. Some of her choices were good money-savers, sometimes her suggestions were too expensive for us but she was happy to recommend something different if it was not within budget.”

“I was so impressed at how quickly and intuitively Lisa understood my ideas for my new kitchen. As a creative person who loves design I had been struggling for a while trying to decide on what would work, and I had managed to overwhelm myself with creating endless Pinterest boards which only added to the confusion. Lisa expertly navigated my moodboard and suggested details, finishes and style ideas that I hadn’t thought of; pulling out colours and textures from images I liked and translating them into real ideas. She was also able to point out what would work long term, meaning that my kitchen will have more of a timeless feel rather than jumping onto trends, which really helped me understand why certain ideas I had wouldn’t work. These professional tips were priceless, and I wish I’d found Lisa sooner.”

“Holly did an amazing job of furnishing our new garden room, with colours out of my normal range! The room is a really unusual ‘P’ shape with an octagon ‘p’. She suggested furniture options I didn’t realise existed. Our home is multi functional with a 90 year old man living there and a 10 month old baby staying two nights! In addition Holly arranged for our main lounge to be updated with smart new curtains, blinds, a new occasional chair and a piano stool in toning fabrics to tie it all together.”
