Ruth Marshall Interiors

Quite simply every home should have a Ruth Marshall. I was recommended Ruth by a very close friend and despite my living over 200 miles away, Ruth has been a fantastic partner in helping me to visualise and then to choose all of the interiors for our new home. Nothing phases her. Ruth has had to be patient with my colour indecisions but at no point has she given up on me! Quite the opposite, she has been able to formulate plan after plan of some wonderful colour schemes and designs. She has access to nation-wide designers and products that cannot be found on the high street, which has proved invaluable to this country girl! The process has been pain free; with conversations held over telephone and electronically following an initial visit early on in the project. We have worked around and throughout the pandemic. Any delays resulting from covid have been related to my decorator not being able to access the house; all other deliveries and services arranged by Ruth have been spot on. Ruth really has taken the strain away for me; anything I have asked her to order, smoothly appears with no fuss. From curtains and blinds, wallpaper and furniture, to lighting and accessories, Ruth literally has it all covered. I have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending her services to you.

Not a good job a great job. Thank you Ruth for transforming my house into a home. Moving is always a challenge but moving from overseas and moving during covd brings added challenge s however Ruth made this transition seem less.A great base of knowledge and experience diving into her wide base of suppliers away from the high street -Ruth provided opitions that were well aligned to my concepts. I would not hesitate on my next move engaging Ruth to provide ideas direction and space planning.

We enlisted Ruths expertise as our Interior Design for our kitchen and extension project. Before this experience, neither my husband nor I had ever used an Interior Designer and were quite apprehensive about whether it would be for us, as we felt our project might be too small, but we were looking for a solution to the fact that our time was limited, and wanted guidance from experts. We found the whole experience to be a breath of fresh air and amazing value for money. Realistically if we had tried to take this on ourselves, we probably would have ended up spending more due to a lack of industry knowledge, making inevitable mistakes and timescales! Ruth is an expert in her field, but what sets her apart is her unfaltering high standards and emphasis on customer service and added value. Ruth will never push ideas on you, but instead really take the time to understand what you are about and what you are looking for and this makes the entire service completely stress free, as you can trust in her judgement, and that she will deliver every time. We would not hesitate to recommend Ruth to anyone, so if you’re considering engaging her services, do it! You will not regret it.

When redecorating our house (which needed it since I left it so long!), Ruth listened to what I wanted and provided options with examples to help me visualise the ideas from colours/wallpaper to selecting furniture. Through the process, Ruth was incredibly supportive and extremely knowledgeable with great contacts. When we agreed a way forward, Ruth ensured the timely provision of materials and items to achieve our agreed schedule, providing strong project management. As a customer, I am thrilled with what was achieved and highly recommend Ruth’s work.

Anderson Orr Architects Ltd were appointed to carry out an extensive refurbishment of and alteration to a residential property in West London and, as Project Architect, I very much enjoyed working with the Ruth who the client appointed as the Interior Designer. Ruth combined creativity, flair and vision with a practical approach to problem solving which helped to ensure that the programme was maintained and, on completion, the results won the praise of all involved not least the Client. Ruth was flexible in her approach, determined to see through her vision, very hands on and certainly prepared to get her hands dirty which was a refreshing change to my previous experiences with Interior Designer's!

I have worked with Ruth over a few years at two different homes. The first occasion was in my lounge where I wanted a classy & original look. Ruth is very enjoyable to work with - not pushy in any way but, full of ideas & suggestions on fabrics & colours. She listens to what you are trying to achieve & responds quickly to requests. I moved 18 months ago & was pleased to be able to use Ruth again . She was invaluable in searching for what I had suggested & came up with a wonderful light fitting that was original & unusual. Calm & professional - highly recommend.

Ruth did a fabulous job with a complete refurbishment of our home, very professional,, very easy to work with, lots of advice and a sense of humour too. All work was completed within deadlines!! Just a shame she is now based in Surrey. Would definitely recommend to anyone no matter how big or small the project.

Ruth has helped me with a number of projects in three different home. She completely took the stress out of bring the various schemes together. They are timeless and classy and reflect my personality perfectly as she takes the time to listen to my ideas. That said, I don't always get what I ask for as she builds on my thoughts and takes the schemes to a level that I could never achieve without her. On some occasions she has offered a totally different and exceptional idea. I'm never disappointed.

I have known Ruth since 2015 and from first meeting her I found Ruth friendly and approachable; she listened to my ideas and interpreted them with helpful advice and ideas. I have been impressed with her enthusiasm, thorough knowledge of fabrics, fixtures and fittings, the best techniques and ideas; especially when tackling an old farmhouse with some interesting windows to dress which on occasion proved a challenge. Even though Ruth has relocated to Surrey I had no hesitation in contacting her to finish the last three windows to complete the renovation of our home. I can highly recommend Ruth and I am only sorry that we have lost a very talented interior decorator in our area.

Briefly Ruth has worked on three separate projects on our Victorian house in Wandsworth over the past two years. She has helped with : Hallway over 3 floors, Living/Dining rooms and currently on a study /bedroom. Her sensitivity to our brief was excellent and she always had alternatives ready to hand. She has introduced us to a new world of lighting furniture and colour ! The blinds and curtains she commissioned have been excellent She is also really efficient. Everything is delivered on time and she has liaised well with decorators , contractors and suppliers.
