Sherborne, Dorset Space Planning Professionals

“As an overseas client looking to renovate our period property in Bath from a distance, PiD were invaluable in helping us achieve the home we have always dreamt of. Barbara acted as our eyes and ears on the ground, bringing a ready made team of skilled and reliable tradespeople to the table saving us the headache of trying to source them ourselves. The work carried out included replacing the roof, installing new wiring, upgrading the plumbing, designing and fitting a new master bathroom and kitchen, and converting the cellars into liveable space, along with complete redecoration - everything from paint colours to carpets and curtains. PiD also carried out a refurbishment of our two bedroom cottage, adjacent to the house - which again included a new bathroom and kitchen and complete redecoration. We are absolutely delighted with the end results, which is due in no small part to Barbara's ability to meet and indeed exceed the expectations of a sometimes highly demanding client!”

“Proctor Watts Cole Rutter provided a complete architectural service for our Grade II listed farm house from discussing and producing initial design ideas and dealing with planning and conservation issues to fully project managing the job”

“A wonderful design for my sons bedroom, carried out beautifully. He loves his bedroom, with the centre focus being blue & cars. A really easy going, flexible lady to work with. Highly recommended.”

“'We have worked with Woadden Nash for many years and find they understand the interior design needs of our purchasers, and deliver carefully considered and beautiful houses'”

Helen is very detailed and professional on all her projects to a high level of finish no matter what the budget is . always willing to help and take calls and great to work with and that always helps when you are trying to get the correct details and designs for clients and there projects”

“Prime Meridian designed a single story extension to our kitchen at the rear of our Grade 2 listed Georgian town house; applied for and obtained Listing Building Consent; recommended local builders and then supervised the JCT small build contract for the works. Design advice and communication were excellent with regular site inspections and minuted meetings with builders and ourselves. Supervision was highly effective and we are very pleased with the striking modern design complementing the age and character of the house.”

“David and Charlotte designed us the best bespoke 50s inspired kitchen ever. We love it. Everyone who visits comments on the high standard of craftsmanship, which David provided, and the brilliant design of Charlotte. We discussed all our needs prior to the design, and found Charlotte advice very helpful on where to put everything! Charlotte designed our red and grey 50s inspired kitchen to match flooring I had found 6 months before. The colours all match beautifully, and I'm really happy I got the flooring I dried of too! This is our first house, and first design by workshop interiors, but we are already planning on using them again for everything from now on. They work as a team, very professional, to a high standard which they set themselves. What more can I say.”

“Having been used to furnishing period properties, I suspected I would be in trouble when I purchased a large, square-roomed flat with no intrinsic features to guide me. Fortunately I found Lisa who, over a period of several months, has delivered a home that is both stylish and comfortable. She is very professional and needed to be extremely patient, since I knew what I didn’t want rather than what I did. After an initial meeting on site she produced mood-boards that were subsequently added to and subtracted from. Having sourced pieces that she felt would work Lisa accompanied me on two days of pre-arranged meetings with suppliers, her presence being invaluable in keeping me focused. She ordered items once decided upon and arranged for their delivery, which sometimes required time-consuming input on her part since I am absent from the UK for periods of time. Lisa has great ideas, is a delight to work with and really cares about what she does. In short, I have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone seeking a thoughtful, talented and pro-active interior designer.”

“Many thanks to Annie , whose knowledge and vision helped us enormously with the design for our extension. She understood exactly what we were trying to achieve. We found it very difficult to visualise the final layout, but Annie’s ideas were excellent, and her skill in a visualisation so we could actually ‘see’ the final outcome, provided us with exactly what we needed. It gave us a focus and an idea of where we were going. Planning an extension and modifying an existing layout is not for everyone; it is very easy to get it wrong, and end up having to modify a poor start! I would recommend Annie without hesitation to anyone thinking about any sort of interior design or architectural or structural changes to their house. Thank you so much Annie!”

“We asked Laura Butler Madden to help us find the best possible way to utilise the space in our large living room. Our house is a Victorian Terrace but a lot of the character that we love about these period houses had been ripped out. However Laura designed us the perfect living room that was classic yet with a modern twist. Her style is truly beautiful and we always get compliments on our furnishings. Whatever your taste Laura works hard to make sure you get exactly what you'll love. We will certainly want to use her again in the future.”
