Susie McKechnie Interiors

It was my first time working with an interior designer and I really needed help to transform my master bedroom and ensuite and the results have exceeded every expectation. Susie’s vision and attention to detail stood out. She reconfigured the entire layout by moving walls to create a much more spacious and functional flow, including a stunning walk-in wardrobe. The design itself is beautiful. The bedroom is now comfortable and elegant, while the ensuite bathroom brings an industrial style that feels modern, unique, and incredibly well executed. Every material, finish, and fixture was thoughtfully chosen and perfectly installed. The teams of builders, plumbers, electricians, decorators and carpenters Susie selected were genuinely all lovely and a pleasure to have in my home. Communication throughout the project was excellent. Taking into account all the things I knew I didn’t like and helping me choose pieces that I now love. I couldn’t be happier with the transformation and would highly recommend Susie to anyone looking to create a truly special space.

Working with Susie has been one of the best decisions we’ve made. As two working parents with young children — and coming off the back of a build — our time, energy and headspace were limited. We knew we needed help, and Susie exceeded every expectation. What began as a house of blank walls is now a warm, stylish and beautifully considered home. Susie’s design talent is exceptional. Her ideas are consistently fresh, thoughtful and imaginative, and she has an extraordinary eye for colour, texture and balance. The way she layers tones, materials and finishes brings each room to life in a way that feels both effortless and deeply intentional. She introduced combinations we never would have thought of, yet everything feels cohesive and perfectly suited to our family. The outcome is perfect, and just ‘us’. Beyond her creativity, Susie is simply a joy to work with. She is super organised, efficient and wonderfully clear, making every stage of the process smooth and stress‑free. Her communication is impeccable, her planning is meticulous, and her warm, friendly manner made the entire experience genuinely enjoyable — even with a young family and limited time to spare. We receive so many compliments on our home, and we always say the same thing: It’s all thanks to Susie. She brings exceptional talent, genuine warmth and flawless organisation — a combination that truly transforms a house into a home. If you’re considering working with her, don’t hesitate.

We worked with Susie to transform the downstairs of our home. She was such a pleasure to work with. Susie has an exceptional eye for colour and design and pushed me right out of my comfort zone (in a good way!), with transformational results. She took a lot of care to get the detail right, getting to know our needs and keeps offering solutions until it is absolutely perfect. She knows her products very well and provides imaginative solutions, within budget and loads of ideas that we would never have thought of. The quality of Susie work is to an extremely high standard and that is included in the suppliers she uses, only the best. Susie has a very warm and personable style, is highly experienced which she shares in a very professional way. We will most certainly use her again and would highly recommend.

Susie has a great eye for interior design and I love my finished rooms. She took the time to listen to what I was after and helped me transform several rooms which I now love spending time in! She is professional yet friendly and I highly recommend her.

Susie is an absolute delight to work with. Full of creative ideas, clever solutions to problems, a wonderful selection of suppliers and on line sources of products, and a great eye for colour and design. I thoroughly enjoyed bringing the house back to life with her after the construction work finished and she was a thoughtful and supportive collaborator. Graciously accepting when we didn't quite agree on things, but also making sure I was convinced about what I wanted rather than just accepting my first thoughts. She very much works with you, taking your taste and vision and doing the technical stuff to bring it to fruition. I am delighted with the colour schemes we came up with, and the house now feels whole and as one rather than a jumble of rooms. Susie is incredibly talented, and not just in soft furnishings, paint and bathrooms; she contributes positively to discussions about room layouts and her lighting schemes are excellent. Interior design is about so much more than a few scatter cushions. Susie was there with me from the beginning and was invaluable. I couldn't have done it without her. Anyone who employs her to work with them on their project is very lucky.

I had the best experience working with Susie. Always very friendly, warm approach to everyone around makes designing process very pleasant. Communicative, creative and always reliable. Looking forward to future projects together.

Susie came highly recommended to me by a friend and the recommendation was spot on. Susie was so helpful I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone

Susie helped me last year primarily to choose paint colours for every room in my house. I wanted to be brave and go with some bold colours in some of the rooms and with Susie’s experience she really helped me achieve this. Susie created a Harry Potter themed room for my 9 year old daughter which was brilliant and a football themed room for my son which he loved. I had been looking at colours for months and Susie literally sorted the whole house for me in 2 hours and I have been so pleased with the outcome of all the colour choices. Susie also sourced several items for me such as a fantastic rug for my kitchen/ living area which is both kid and pet friendly. She also sourced new kitchen bar stools and a beautiful rug for my living room. Susie also sourced a brilliant TV unit for me which fits perfectly in our living room. Lastly Susie helped me design an amazing media wall in my kitchen/ living area. She has great contacts who built and fitted the units and everyone was wowed by the finished article - we couldn’t have been happier. We would thoroughly recommend Susie as an interior designer - she was so easy and pleasant to work with. I had previously been afraid to use a designer as I thought it would cost the earth and I’d get pushed into having things I don’t want but Susie was the complete opposite and a pleasure to work with and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to others.

Susie designed our new kitchen and snug room and project managed the building works. We were delighted with the initial design which reconfigured the rooms in a way that we would never have considered. We have not used an interior designer before but found it allowed us to continue our full-time jobs while Susie dealt with the issues arising on site. Susie was professional and helpful at each stage of the project. We are absolutely thrilled with the final result, a very cosy and comfortable living and dining space that suits all our family needs. We would thoroughly recommend her for your next project.
