Samantha Goodhew Design

It’s been really fun working with Sam. We were completely on the same page from the very beginning and so it’s been quite a seamless experience working together. She’s provided great creative suggestions from the start and has always stuck to our brief and preferences whilst providing honest feedback. She’s also worked within our budget and made adjustments to suit us where needed which was really helpful and appreciated. Will definitely be working with her again in the future.

Sam was immensely helpful with the design and project management of our new kitchen, bathroom and utility cupboard in our small Victorian mid-terrace house. She has been an absolute delight to work with and I can honestly say that without her, we’d never have got the project off the ground. She quickly understood our style preferences and returned designs that we loved which were sympathetic to the age of our house. She prepared drawings and electrical schemes for the builders and sourced all the fixtures and fittings. When my builder continued to be evasive about a start date, she recommended her team so we used them instead, and are so happy we did. We will definitely be using Sam and her building contractors on the remaining rooms in our house. Highly recommend.

Sam's help made all the difference to the success of our bathroom renovation - she was amazing with builders and suppliers alike, but most importantly in gently guiding our choices so that the end result held together beautifully, fitting with both our aspirations for the space as well as with the rest of the house.

Samantha Goodhew truly exceeded our expectations when designing our property. Her impeccable taste shines through in the beautiful color palettes she chose and the luxury furniture selections. We particularly loved how she seamlessly blended funky designs with contemporary elements, creating a space that's not only aesthetically pleasing but also functional and inviting. Samantha's attention to detail and understanding of our vision made the entire experience a joy. Highly recommend for anyone seeking a top-tier design expert!

Sam did a wonderful job of the design of my house refresh. She was extremely helpful with guidance on renovating all rooms and an excellent combination of colours for carpets, walls and wooden floors. She even pushed me to try new things, who would have know black stairs could look so good! I would 100% recommend Sam and she has an excellent eye for detail.

When we moved into our new home, it hadn’t been modernised since the early 90’s, it was basically a blank canvas. We wanted to get it right and say something about us as a couple and as a family. Sam brought fantastic design ideas and stacks of creativity to our brief. Helping us maximise the right room layouts, lighting fixtures and furnishings, and colours to reflect our personal styles and lifestyles. Sam sourced us some exceptional quality pieces using her extensive network to fit with our designs. We absolutely love living in our home, it’s a dream, and Sam made that happen for us.

My husband and I had the great fortune of working with Sam to transform our downstairs living area into an area of great design and functionality. From the initial consultation through to the end result a few weeks’ later, the whole experience was exceptional and really enjoyable. What we particularly enjoyed and valued was Sam’s ability to take our rough ideas and transform them into something so much better. A few days after our first meeting, she returned to our house to present two ideas for our living area (our property being a Victorian terrace where the downstairs’ rooms have all been knocked through to create a large space). We were very impressed that Sam was able to fully understand what we were trying to achieve and presented two options to us both of which demonstrated a great style, but also a focus on the importance of function. For example, she proposed moving a radiator a few feet that then allowed for a more practical use of the area. What we particularly valued was that Sam did not try to ‘impose’ her own style and look on to us, but was quickly able to understand our style and reflect it back to us in a way more sophisticated and cohesive style. We liked the way that she suggested ideas that we would never have thought of, but look great within the space. She solved the conundrum of what to do with the ‘middle’ space between the living room and kitchen, and has created a much more functional, practical, but importantly relaxing space. We also chose to work with Sam and her team on implementing the design. All the different professionals we worked with were very diligent, reliable and extremely talented. The whole process was very collaborative and Sam was always on hand and very responsive to our questions and suggestions. The project was completed within the agreed-upon timeframe, and the final result surpassed our expectations. We both wholeheartedly recommend Sam to anyone seeking an interior designer who combines creativity, expertise, and a client-focused service. We remain super happy with the work she has done and hope to have an opportunity to work with her again in the near future.

I worked with Samantha to design my Grade II listed flat in South Kensington. She did a remarkable job blending the historical aspects of the home/area with trendy designs. She provided lots of great ideas, listens to your desires, and delivers projects in a timely manner. She also did a great job of following up to make sure that everything was perfect. I plan on working with Sam again in the future once I am able to obtain planning permission to remodel my home. I would and have recommended Sam to my friends and family.

Great help in bringing my ideas to life and sourcing the right pieces, as well as steering me in the right direction on final detailed decisions!

Love working with Sam - she brings the right blend of my taste and new ideas. Everything is well thought out and great communication. Very happy to work around budgets and find alternatives that still work great! We started with a wardrobe - which revolutionised my life - and then sprucing up the living room, a new bathroom and now a spare bedroom! Not to mention a study that is the envy of all! How grateful I am now for that! All customed designed to suit my life.

Samantha delivered a fantastic service to us, the end result was beyond expectation and also fell within our budget. We were unsure of the style and design that we wanted to achieve and Samantha (who was recommended by a friend) created a number of mood boards and ideas that we worked through together. She was incredibly patient and creative at this stage whilst we decided on a style we were excited about. The delivery of the project was very well organised as it was on a tight schedule and involved shipping from suppliers across Europe to our chalets in France. Samantha came out to put the finishing touches and stylise the chalets to ensure the project was perfectly finished. All in all she was great fun to work with professional, knowledgeable and with a keen eye for detail. We look forward to working with her in the future and thoroughly recommend her service.

Sam redesigned our sitting room and dining room including recovering furniture, new curtains & poles, cushions and other details to tie things together. Sam has an obvious flair for design, endless patience and is very easy to work with. I’d highly recommend Sam and will definitely use her again!
