Catherine Colegrave Interiors

I was so impressed with the amazing job Catherine did on both designing my lounge and main bedroom. She has a real flair for what looks stylish and is extremely creative. My friends have been envious! Catherine listened to what I wanted and came up with ideas I wouldn’t have dared to try! She is extremely friendly and approachable and worked flexibly to accommodate our budget. Would recommend her wholeheartedly!

Having no interior design knowledge I was really stuck when I approached Catherine to help redesign my living room. And what a gem of a find! Catherine was both knowledgeable and a consummate professional. She worked with me to truly understand not only my ideas, but my lifestyle and budget and brought this to life in a way I honestly couldn't of imagined. She really listened to my vision, guided me through ideas that I would never have even thought of, and introduced colours and textures in to my living space that not only look stunning, but are functional and practical too. Catherine comes highly recommended! A pleasure to work with, I'll definitely by using her again.

Catherine provided an excellent service - advice on colour and texture, links to items to purchase and suggestions on how to connect separate pieces of furniture together. She helped me turn my lounge from a dark, dreary space into a stylish, cosy room with a real touch of design. Would highly recommend her service.

Catherine was amazing. She is very friendly and kind. She understood what I wanted from our first meeting, after that i was very excited and confident that I picked to work with her. It was a very collaborative style which is what I liked. When I asked her to find alternatives she did and she also helped me pick designs for home projects. Catherine supported a lot of ideas I put forward and also stirred me away from ideas she didn’t think would work. I will highly recommend her and will not hesitate to use her again next time.

Catherine Colegrave Interiors came into our house just after we finished a major ground floor extension which meant decorating and planning a whole new living space fit for a family. I needed help to create different zones that all worked together very well, especially as ours is a large household with different age groups. My other brief was that although this part of the house is part of the 21 century I wanted a firm nod to the era the house was built, 1930's, and stick to elements of an Art Deco colour scheme, shapes, and style. Another brief was that I didn't want to buy anything new but use 'upcycled', recycled, second hand furniture, ornaments etc. Catherine really rose to the occasion and has created the most amazing warm inviting, fun yet calm living space, with a nod to the Art Deco era. Catherine Colegrave Interiors was a fantastic experience for me. Catherine listened to all my eclectic ideas, nailed down what my style ideas were and transformed them into something that still had my own identity stamped on it, just beautifully presented, coordinated and ordered. Engaging with Catherine was uplifting and inspiring, making a stressful process enjoyable. All my ideas were validated and gently coached into reality. I will definitely recommend her to others and use her again.

Thank you Catherine so much for helping me style and stage my home last year in order to help sell it. You gave some great tips on decluttering and how to dress the room with beautiful accessories and also gave me suggestions on some tried and tested Farrow and Ball colours which really helped to lighten and lift the rooms I had redone. It successfully sold as a result of the makeover. So thank you for your wonderful advice.

I hired Catherine to do the interior design of my master bedroom recently and what a wonderful idea it was. Catherine came up with original and classy ideas whilst respecting my tastes. She made the whole experience so easy and stress-free as she not only recommended furniture, paint, wall paper, lighting and frames but sent me the link for all of them so I only had to click and pay. Amazing! My room now looks like a show room. All along, Catherine kept checking with me if I was happy with her ideas, the style or colours she had suggested and was very kind and discreet. I will definitely use her services again for my bathroom and would happily recommend her. Catherine is a gem! Thank you for everything.

Catherine helped us to to design our children’s bedrooms because they’d outgrown their current space and wanted rooms that were more ‘grown up’. In addition I wanted something that would stand the test of time and not have to be re-decorated anytime soon. Catherine took her time to understand the needs of our children, she even spoke to both of them and got them involved in the creative process which they loved. She considered what they would use the rooms for and planned it perfectly so the work would be completed before my son started studying for his 11+ exams. I love how their rooms are multi-functional yet still feel cosy and reflect their different personalities. Everything was considered, even the amount of space to store all their things neatly, which I must admit has definitely encouraged them to be tidier, which makes my life easier! Catherine has a very raw talent and i could not have asked for more to be honest. I am so happy we were able to work together as a family on this project and we a as re so grateful we had Catherine by our side.

We renovated our home in France a couple of years ago, but life got busy and we just wanted to relax and enjoy it so we never seemed to get round to doing the finishing touches. We were happy with the space and furniture, but it felt like something was missing, it didn’t feel like ‘home’. I knew I needed to buy accessories, cushions and artwork but was overwhelmed at the prospect of going hunting around shops in both France and the UK. Catherine took time out of her family holiday in France and did a styling session for me. She really listened to what I wanted to achieve in terms of comfort, budget, and ‘look’ She produced great mood boards, which we discussed. and within a matter of weeks both my sitting room and bedroom looked interesting and loved. Her choices really lifted the space and she introduced things I wouldn’t have even considered. The best bit is the real buzz I get each time I turn up when I get a great hit of style and comfort. It was an amazingly flexible and professional service; I would highly recommend.

I hired Catherine to revamp my living room and she has done the most amazing job. She took the time to really listen and understand what I was looking to achieve, both in terms of style and budget, and she gave me a wealth of inspiration and fabulous ideas and designs to pick and choose from. She is the perfect mix of professional and friendly and has great attention to detail; she is also very quick to respond to emails and queries. Catherine was a pleasure to work with and I am thrilled with the results. I would highly recommend her.

WOW, Catherine is amazing! I now totally love my stunning open living space and the whole family now wants to spend time together. I always thought I had a good eye for décor and design so was tempted to tackle myself but wanted some fresh ideas. Catherine gave me options, ideas and really challenged my thinking about what I wanted to create. I never thought I would live in a home like this, and it has brought the entire family together to relax and enjoy in pure luxury! Even my older children want to chill out with us now! It’s not just the materials, textures and colours she helped with, Catherine helped create more space, lighting with features and accessories that I’d never have found. Catherine is so positive and creative - she made sure everything was perfect. I can’t thank Catherine enough – she is friendly and bubbly and a true professional, friendly, always taking time to listen and then comes up with the most amazing suggestions. Catherine had added that finishing touch of class and elegance and I would highly recommend! Thank you Catherine!
