Interior Design Professionals in Thame, Oxfordshire

“After speaking with several interior designers I contacted Katherine and knew from our first call that she totally understood what we were trying to achieve with the renovation of our very derelict Victorian farmhouse! This was not our first project so we had really strong ideas for the design and final finish, but taking on the huge task of project managing the build ourselves meant Katherine’s advise and guidance throughout was invaluable in helping finalise decisions on lighting, paint colours and the like when decision fatigue was at it worst! It has been an absolute delight working with Katherine, her flexible, intuitive approach was exactly what we needed. The house has surpassed our expectations and Katherine has very much been part of that realisation. If we ever take on another project (we won’t!) Katherine would be at the top of my contact list! Thank you so much for helping us create our beautiful forever home, your expert touch is certainly felt here :)”

“It has been an absolute pleasure working with Rebecca and her team again on this second phase of our home - mostly involving the bedrooms and a lot of joinery design. Rebecca has been extremely helpful and provided us with invaluable advice on completing the project. The input on the design, choice of materials and colours is always on point and very tasteful! We are very pleased with the outcome. The team at Leivars have been present at every stage of this phase of the project and it is, as always, very enjoyable to work with each and every one of them. Communication is always flowing and they are always open to suggestions. A positive experience again and I can not recommend Rebecca and her team enough to anyone who would like a beautiful home.”

“WOW! Was the message I sent Philippa when we opened the door to our home. We approached Philippa again after she designed our kitchen a few years ago, to renovate and refurbish our period property home as we hadn’t done anything to it since we moved in 11 years ago and there were rooms we didn’t even use. We both have very busy lives and trusted Philippa and her team to be professional, helpful and easy to work with. Having all the designs and items they had chosen for us on their online dashboard really helped with decision-making and transparency with costings. Their suggestions for moving my tiny office in the top attic to the living room was genius as I now have a stunning library and sofa to watch the sports and movies in my study and moving the living room into the drawing room so it overlooks the garden rather than the drive, was equally transformative. By closing doors and adding new ones the house now feels cohesive, cosy and welcoming and rooms flow naturally from one to another. They identified pieces of art that we really loved and used these as their starting point for our colours and designs – and what they created is a magic blend that incorporates our art, our rugs, and reflects our lives here in the UK and abroad. They have somehow woven it all into a beautiful interior that has quite simply breathed new life into our Victorian home and has given us more than we ever hoped for. As part of their installation and styling service - they not only unpacked seven container boxes for us but even went the extra mile taking time to frame a family tree, colour co-ordinate books in the library and adding flowers for our arrival back home. We’d never have got this result ourselves – they more than exceeded our brief – our home looks amazing, and we love it. Highly recommended!”
