Gringley Bespoke

I have worked with Gringley Bespoke on numerous projects in my home now and each time, Bryony listens to your conversations, sees inside your heart and builds a vision far better than I could ever imagine. She has project managed the whole solution each time and her meticulous attention to detail delivers a stress free project for me, she manages the trades and utilises the time for each one to be on site. My whole home needed a refresh on the back of losing my husband and what Bryony has done with such care and consideration means he is still here with me without seeing him everywhere and I could never thank her enough for doing that. I would and do highly recommend Bryony for any interior design project.

We had an Edwardian Terrace cottage that needed a major refurbishment with no clue where to start or even how to deal with a designer!! We discovered how little we really did know. No problem! Bryony led us through every process consulting us at every stage. She organised all the trades and was meticulous in overseeing them (even more than we would have been). The refurbishment was painless, unforeseen issues were met head on and dealt with very quickly. The end result was amazing! It was uncanny like she'd dragged things from our imagination into reality. Little touches we'd never thought of were just perfect touches. In terms of project management Bryony was faultless removing all the stress that goes with a renovation. Her design and use of our things was imaginative and, well perfect. She even gave me a master class in looking after indoor plants!! I have no hesitation in recommending Gringley Bespoke. If your a first timer don't worry Bryony will take you through everything step by tiny step.

Bryony understood what we wanted: she listened and took on board what we were saying we needed and turned it into reality. She gave us ideas that we hadn’t thought of and was able to communicate her vision to us in a way that made us excited to get started and know we were going to love the results! She wasn’t pushy and the ideas she gave us were so relevant to us and what we wanted and needed. We couldn’t be happier with the finished result it’s so practical and aesthetically pleasing! It’s just perfect!

We’ve worked with Bryony on various projects now, both for my business and for our home, and every time we have been more than happy with the service and results. Getting Bryony involved from the beginning of the projects meant we made better decisions on the layout and use of the space. She gave us a different perspective on how to use the space and created areas with different functions that still all worked together as a whole. Even previously ‘dead spaces’ now have a purpose and look great!

We would highly recommend Gringley Bespoke! Before we started to work with Bryony, the plan was to decorate the whole house in the same shade of Farrow and Ball grey! Bryony listened carefully to our likes and dislikes and carefully created a colour palette which suited our taste perfectly and was bold enough to make a difference and emphasise certain areas and features, but subtle enough to ensure a tasteful and elegant final look. I would certainly recommend investing in a colour consultation – and that is what it is – an investment – a plan for the future design of your house. From the basic colour consultation, we were then able to identify different pieces of furniture that could be upcycled to fit in with our colour scheme and picture frames and mounts that could be changed to ensure that they matched. Byrony is very conscious of cost saving and also the environmental impact and always tries to find ways to reuse and improve existing belongings rather than replace them. We were also provided with a very handy handbag colour chart that I take shopping with me to help ensure that future purchases fit in with our new colour scheme. Bryony also helped us to source several rugs which look amazing. Without her help I would have probably trotted off to John Lewis and spent a fortune on a rug that was the wrong colour and size. Bryony’s sourcing service ensured that we got some new rugs that fitted our colour scheme, were the right shape and size and were very reasonably priced and great quality too. Bryony also styled our house for us, using our own ornaments etc, she cleverly put things together in ways that I would never have thought. She identified areas where we might want to invest in other bits and pieces over time and now, I have my colour chart, I can confidently shop ‘til I drop knowing what will look good in which areas. Working with Bryony enabled us to create a vision and a plan for the future of our house, which with her help we have now achieved. The value for money that Bryony provides is unquestionable, her service ensures you focus your spending on purchases or renovations that fit in with your plan and will genuinely save money in the long run. She was a wonderful to work with, listened carefully to our tastes and made suggestions with them in mind, always did what she said she would and communicated everything to us very clearly. I would highly recommend working with her and will continue to do so in the future myself.

Bryony was my go to person when I needed some help with paint colours and ideas for my kitchen/breakfast room. I certainly wasn't disappointed, her expert knowledge and ideas were a great help. Colour swatches were provided to test the colours in different daytime lighting to ensure colours worked. I was extremely pleased with the outcome which proved excellent value. I highly recommend her.

We couldn’t recommend Bryony enough. The service we received from her was so professional and perfectly tailored to what we wanted to achieve from our living room. The home visit was so valuable and worth every single penny. Bryony really took the time to listen to everything we said in order to present us with ideas that were perfect for our family. Getting her involved with our project has inspired us to go beyond anything we would have ever considered or even thought of and we are so grateful to her. Communication was absolutely brilliant and again, so professional. Nothing was too much trouble and Bryony was more than happy to take the time to talk us through all her ideas and worked so well with us to create the perfect colour pallet based on the information we had given her about our likes, dislikes and vision for the room. I will never redecorate another room before getting Bryony involved first! The quality of the information sent to us after the home visit absolutely blew us away. The detailed write up of everything we had talked about is invaluable for keeping us on track with our project. Bryony has such a wonderful imagination and ability to truly understand her client which has allowed us to be bold and get the absolute best out of our room, therefor creating a room that we can’t wait to spend time in with friends and family.

I was so glad we contacted Bryony as she was perfect with knowing how to slightly push us out our comfort zone and had ideas beyond the usual Pinterest boards! We're looking forward to starting our build and implementing the plans on the three rooms she designed for us. Valuable help and well priced so would certainly recommend.

Bryony listens well and has an empathy with her clients. She integrates details in her ideas/designs to suit the personalities and style choices people relay to her. This has resulted in our living room becoming a cosy, timeless space to relax in. Very happy with Gringley Bespoke!

I was sceptical about contacting an interior designer because my husband and I both have quite strong views on what we do and don’t like however I am really glad to have involved Bryony in our project. We were really just looking for ideas with regards to lighting a room and that’s exactly what she helped us with. She gave us new ideas which we hadn’t thought of and reassured us that some of the things we’d thought about were on the right track. Very friendly and easy to work with and was able to get a real feel for our space even over a laptop camera! Highly recommend!

Bryony did a great job - I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her. She was very professional from the beginning and I really liked that she considered the eco credentials of her paints and materials. She even custom made some furniture for a very small space. Thank you Bryony!

As a business owner I wanted someone to deliver a vision that encompassed our company values and philosophy. I found it hard to articulate what we wanted as it was more a "feeling" for me . The plan was bold and scary... but we trusted the plan and WOW! It is sensational. My wife and I now plan to use Gringley Bespoke before all hour renovations! Decorating the room right once with her guidance saves money on redoing (pain etc) and it's just another level of beautiful.
