Briony came to our rescue to provide us with some much needed advice and inspiration after our extension project got underway. We were keen to be a bit bolder but didn’t want to make a costly mistake getting it wrong.
Briony provided invaluable advice on numerous areas, focussing on our open plan kitchen/ dining and living room areas and our new master bedroom:-
Lighting- Briony’s ideas were really well thought-out and her suggestions have made our new kitchen and living area really special and bespoke. The difference it made to the finished space is unbelievable. We would never have come up with these ideas ourselves and are really grateful for Briony’s guidance.
Colour scheme and style- Briony really listened to what we liked and the ideas we already had and invested the time to get to know us and our likes (blue! (me!)) and dislikes (mustard/ orange (also me!)). At our request, she made suggestions that took us a little (but not too far) out of our comfort zone and pulled together sketches to bring these ideas to life, giving us lots of new ideas to consider.
Budget- Briony was always conscious of our budget and worked to find the best suggestions that would work within that.
Time frame- Briony regularly committed to coming back with ideas within agreed time frames (to work with our builder and electrician’s timings, even though their work was already timetabled). She often liaised directly with them, sharing her ideas. Nothing was too much for her to support.
Throughout the whole process, Briony has been a pleasure to work with. She maintained her enthusiasm for our project (even when we probably seemed to be lacking in direction and organisation skills!) and retained flexibility to produce exactly what we wanted. She was hugely supportive and nothing ever seemed too much for her to manage for us.
The building work is complete, decorating finished and our new furniture is starting to arrive. It is a joy to sit and look at the finished product, taking it all in. We wouldn’t have been able to achieve this without Briony’s invaluable advice and support. We would not hesitate to recommend her to others.
Many many thanks!

We got Briony in to give us some ideas about what to do with our large kitchen/dining area. The space is very large but not really fit for purpose with a lot of wasted space and we wanted some ideas to make it work for us and our family. Briony came up with a couple of ideas and then adapted these for our comments, I was really pleased with her designs and was nothing we would have thought of. She really thought about what we wanted and needed and made the space work for us with some clever design features to maximise light in what has always been a very dark space.
We are mid way through our project using Briony's designs and would highly recommend her!

We employed Reyne design to help with the renovation and redecoration of our home. As a Jacobean, listed property it needed careful attention to detail combined with fresh ideas so ensure that, whilst we remained sympathetic to the era of the property, we created a modern space suitable for our family (with 3 young children). We have only completed the first phase to date, but we are so pleased with the results. Briony surpassed our expectations and her ideas took us out of our comfort zone. Her service has always been very professional and communication very easy, we are updated at every opportunity. We’re looking forward to starting phase 2!

Thank you so much for your kind words Sarah. We have really enjoyed working with you on your incredible home. It really is a privilege to be able to work on such a historic building. We hope we took you out of your comfort zone in a good way! Really looking forward to continuing to work with you and wish you all the best with the ongoing renovations.

I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Briony, her input was absolutely invaluable in redesigning our loft room. We knew we wanted to add some velux windows and brighten up what was a dark, low-ceilinged room, and we also wanted to incorporate an ensuite, but we weren’t sure how best to make use of the limited space and create something a bit different. As a rectangular room, I wasn’t sure what Briony might add to the process, but I’d seen the visuals and transformations on her website so we reached out and she visited the space. Briony took on board all the things we wanted to incorporate (which was quite a lot for a small space) and came up with a couple of designs which brilliantly achieved everything. In particular, she came up with the idea to double-stack the velux windows, into the loft recess to create a beautiful alcove with a stunning view – a bookshelf then created a dividing wall which hid the toilet, enabling us to keep the rest of the bathroom open-plan to maximise the space. She was easy to work with, receptive to our ideas, creative, resourceful and just downright lovely. At previous properties we’ve had quotes from architects to redesign spaces and the prices had been completely prohibitive – for someone with such prodigious talent, Briony was surprisingly affordable and I think her design ideas saved us time and money by helping us get it clear and right, from the start.

I would highly recommend Bryony and Reyne Design. I had a few problem areas in my home that I couldn’t solve and needed some advice with.
Bryony visited me in my home for an informal chat and to look at the space. She then returned for a two hour consultation and found a resolution for all of my problem areas.
Bryony gave advice on lighting, furniture placement, soft furnishings and storage.
Bryony came armed with her sketch pad which I refer back to often and also made a Pinterest board for me. I felt that Bryony really understood my style and what I needed the space to do for me.
I will definitely be recommending Bryony to friends and will be looking for her advice in the future with any further projects I undertake.
Bryony is reliable, friendly, knowledgable and passionate about making homes work whilst looking good!
10/10 for Reynes design!

We had the pleasure of working with Bryony over a couple of years, that's how long it took us to have the ideas, build the extension and then create the finished look using Bryony's inspiration on how to decorate. We initially contacted Bryony to help us with lighting as we wanted a large open plan area and didn't have a clue where to start. She listened to everything we both said and she helped us to compromise as a couple and design something that suited both our style which is a talent in itself! Some of the little touches and the ideas she gave us look not only look amazing but are very practical and make our home feel very special. If we are ever mad enough to take on building work again and redesign our house then Bryony would be my first call.

I contacted Briony when we had plans in place but I was stuck on some critical areas - flooring and doors and windows. I was scared of making the 'wrong' decisions. Briony looked at our plans and suggested fantastic design solutions, as well as pointing me in the direction of suppliers and giving me tips of what to look out for and avoid. Her ideas helped me to move forward and to feel confident in making design decisions. Thank you Briony!

Delivered what we were hoping for, and more, on time and on budget. The pictures helped us to see what we would achieve, and the mood boards helped give ideas of the things we could buy to go with the space to make it feel really special. Fantastic!

I photographed some of Briony's completed projects last year and she was a pleasure to work with. She was easy to communicate with, arranged the photoshoots with her clients and accompanied me to ensure that I had everything I needed. Standing around whilst I'm shooting probably isn't particularly fun but Briony was very patient and allowed me to take my time to get the shots I wanted.
Photographing interiors finished to the high standard of Briony's projects is a real pleasure, it makes my job a breeze! I hope to shoot for her again and would recommend her to anybody.

Briony took our brief for our living room and dining room design. She was attentive and creative and delivered us a workable solution. We worked collaboratively to create looks, ideas and colour schemes Briony connected with what we wanted. Brian and I had different ideas but Briony combined them perfectly. I was particularly impressed with the fact that she understood the architectural aspects of the design. We felt sure that they would fit into our home.
We would happily recommend her to other clients.

We employed Reyne Design to help with our Victorian family home which we were remodeling and extending last year (2016). The existing house was reasonably well balanced, full of character and sat on the edge of a small village in the countryside near the Peak District. But, for all its charm, it was too small for our family and didn't actually lend itself to being extended due to the layout.
I heard about Briony through a close friend. She agreed to take on the project and came to our rescue with several options for us to contemplate, one of which really struck a chord with us. I was very impressed with the way Briony worked, her professionalism and dedication. She really had an uncanny knack of understanding what we wanted and suggesting things which we wouldn't have thought of (like changing a proposed lounge into a wonderfully open living kitchen diner which has become the focal point of the house!). Not only did she get the overall design correct, she has good eye for the finer detail and finishing touches which make all the difference (and which Fi and I are entirely useless at!). And we still get suggestions from her as she finds things that she thinks may be of interest.
All in all, Briony did a great job for us and genuinely appears to care and take pride in the results of her work which I think is rare nowadays. I'd thoroughly recommend her to anyone.

Briony was reliable, friendly & professional to work with. I liked that she took on board my tastes & the style of my home & worked with it, providing a 'house doctor' service to help provide the finishing touches that I didn't have the confidence to do alone. Fantastic service, I will be recommending Reyne Designs to friends & family!
