From initial Ideabook to the big reveal we use technology to collaborate seamlessly with our clients, whether local or remote. Clients often come to us overwhelmed with options and choices or simply too busy to even think about making changes in their home or business premises. We use 3D visuals and renderings along with sample boards to allow you to make informed decisions at the design phase. It all starts with an initial chat on the phone and the all-important Coral Interiors questionnaire - from there we can offer you anything from one-off consultations to full service design and implementation.

Helen came on board shortly after we moved into a period house. Daunted by the prospect of making costly mistakes and keeping true to the essence of the house we intially asked Helen to moodboard throughout. She also project managed our bathroom whilst we were on holiday and we are absolutely delighted with the results. I an honestly say that having Helen's expertise feels like the best decision we could possibly have made in relation to our home. Initially it felt like a luxury and something 'other people' did; but we rationalised it by comparing the cost to the price of a holiday. Helen has given us the confidence we needed in updating our home. She works in partnership with you so you feel you are still in control; and for us that has taken away weeks and months of procrastination driven by lack of confidence and by connecting us with skilled trades. We have even jokingly called Helen our marriage counsellor on occaiosn; but it seriously does help to have her knowledge and experience when there's a difference of opinion in the household. Thank you Helen. We look forward to continuing our work with you.

I have been a client of Helen, and worked alongside her professionally. She staged my house when i put it on the market and i must say it really brought the place to life giving it a warmer feel and demonstrated to the buyer the potential of what would have otherwise been a harsh empty space. When i have worked on Helens projects as a builder i have always been impressed with her ideas and attention to detail. I am always amazed at how the subtlest of things can make a difference to a room or space. If you are passionate about your home, want a change or you are lost in your own ideas I couldn't recommend a consultation with Helen highly enough to make your space a beautiful one

Helen from Coral Interiors has been great to work with on our lounge. The outcome is far beyond what we expected and the lounge really is now the comfortable and stylish space we wanted it to be. We will definitely be working with Helen again in the future.

Very pleased with what Helen has done and is still doing. She has a great way with colour and I now have some beautiful colour combinations that I would not have had the confidence to achieve on my own. She is very good at detail, such as thinking about lighting. The bits of my home that are finished are really stylish and also comfortable and I am enjoying them very much.

We took on Coral Interiors for the design and implementation of a full 4-bedroom cottage and could not have made a better decision. The process was smooth from start to finish and the outcome took my breath away when we walked back in. Helen is trustworthy and professional and I would have no hesitation in recommending her.

Thanks so much for your testimonial, Simon! You were wonderful clients to work with, and I appreciate your trust in the design and project management processes, as we were working totally remotely. Thank you for the opportunity to work on your beautiful cottage and I wish your family and your guests many years of happy memories.

Helen & her Team provided us with inspirational ideas which were practical when designing our open plan kitchen/family room. Our initial consultation involved completing a questionnaire so that Helen could work on the colour schemes, themes and styles that we liked. I had in my own mind what I wanted to achieve but just needed help to bring it all together and more importantly ensure that the colours worked. We were kept informed every step of the way with Helen's recommendations - the colour schemes and space saving ideas that were suggested have worked so well and she helped us to source soft furnishings and furniture that would fit the area perfectly. We now have a gorgeous sociable living area that we use all the time as a family of 3 - it has transformed our house into a family home which we love. Helen is professional and very personable - I must admit I was a little hesitant to contact Helen at first as I thought her services would be far 'out of our league' in terms of budget and design costs but how wrong was I she was amazing every step of the way and I cannot wait to work with her on our next project. I have recommended Coral Interiors to my friends already and will continue to do so. Brilliant service every step of the way.

Helen and her team have provided what I can only describe as an incredible interior design service. I was sceptical about using an interior designer because I thought I could probably pick colours and furnishings that would go well together myself but I soon realised that doing this for one room is no where near as challenging as doing this for an entire cottage. This definitely requires a different level of skill. I found Helen on Houzz and decided to commission her based on the look she had created for other customers. Working with Helen has been a very enjoyable experience. She really understood my requirement which was to create an aspirational holiday let. She produced a beautiful design concept and was patient with the many iterations to the layouts as they changed several times during the renovation. What I have loved most about working with Helen is that she knows what she is doing. Even when I changed my mind several times about something, I always ended up back to what she suggested in the first place because it simply worked with the theme she had produced and created a flow throughout the whole cottage. She was also flexible with working within my budget for the furnishings. I would highly recommend Helen and would definitely use her services again in the future.

Jane Clayton & Company have supplied Coral Interiors with designer fabrics and wallpapers through our retail website since February, and they've become a very valued customer. Helen is professional, friendly, quick to respond to emails and a real pleasure to work with. We enjoy seeing Helen's beautiful designs using the products we've supplied, and I'm certain anyone looking to hire Coral Interiors will be equally as impressed with the company.

I worked with Helen photographing a Victorian house in Dorchester; the house was beautifully refurbished by her throughout, elegant, luxurious but comfortable too. It was great to photograph. I love her style and find her work always translates visually into stunning photographs.

Our family relocated to Dorchester with work and bought a partially refurbished large semi detached Victorian House which was very much a blank canvas. We were used to new builds and felt overwhelmed by the size of the rooms and didn't feel we could do the house justice on it's own. Coral Interiors was recommended to us by the Estate Agent representing the seller. Helen met with us to discuss the rooms we needed help with and tried to tease out our style. She visited us regularly and also used digital media to develop our ideas. When the plans were finalised, she sourced trades and furnishings and often accepted deliveries. Helen pushed us out of our comfort zone of magnolia, which was eactly what we needed and we love the finsihed product. Most importantly it does feel like our home, rather than a house in a magazine, and we are really proud of it.

I wanted to put my house on the market for the second time - having had no success for being on the market for 10 months. I invited an independent agent to view and advise on marketing my home. Helen came recommended to me. Helen responded promptly - she was very pleasant and explained her services clearly - I was left with her company profile brochure and costings involved. She was clear and friendly and I wanted to work with her from that point. I decided to choose Helen and am extremely pleased of the outcome. On the first visit Helen went through each room and advised me what was needed to be done - I was impressed as Helen made sure that I didn't spend extensive amount of money as I was selling. She also said that if it was to be for my own use she would advice me differently. Written report followed shortly which was easy to follow for me and the decorators. Once the work was done and ready for viewing Helen came and added finishing touches - again very pleasant and professional. Although I was not able to finish 100% to her profile not a word was said to me in a negative/critical manner - utterly professional. My house is sold within ten days of advertising - yes it is the truth. I would recommend all sellers to use an interior designer - my concept was that this type of service is expensive but I have had an excellent service and result from Helen for a very reasonable cost.
