“Gemma from Balance Interior Design has been wonderful at transforming spaces within our home. She has a calm, approachable manner and strives to create aesthetic and functional perfection, suited to her client. She worked with us on providing different options to suit our budget and needs, with lots of different recommendations on suppliers and materials, and worked with us throughout the whole process.”

“I had moved into my new home, and the interior decor was neutral - but bland. I was, frankly, at a loss as to how to begin to make it work for me. Kay visited, listened to how I need my home to function, talked me through the possibilities and created several mood boards to enable me to visualise how it could look. She even sent me links to the products I needed, taking the angst out of shopping for the right items. My lovely new home now feels like my space - thanks so much, Kay, for working your magic and taking the fear out of introducing pattern, colour and texture.”

“Tailored to your budget and personality. Why waste money trying to get it right when you can hire this company and get it absolutely right " first time". Talented, personable and willing to go the extra mile to get it right. Really pleased, we would have spent the rest of our lives trying to achieve what they have achieved in five "lockdown" weeks.”

“I approached Wells and Maguire to completely redo my kitchen space along with the living room, dining room, reception area and lower level bathroom. Danielle and Emily were fantastic, friendly and walked me through the whole process from start to finish while also maintaining flexibility when it came to my perfectionism. I couldn't be happier with the service and will be approaching again when it's time for the upstairs.”

“Professional, original, on budget beautiful customised interiors. Loates designs were efficient and thorough. They treated my penthouse design and fit out as a personal project and even helped manage trades that had nothing to do with them. A very reliable, warm and overall fantastic interior design firm, highly recommended.”

“We’d been planning on changing our bathroom for some time but the bathroom companies we’d approached hadn’t been able to produce a design we liked. The space had to be totally redesigned, to enable us to have a large shower, plenty of storage and a clean, modern look. Anna worked really well with us, and quickly came up with a proposal which met our requirements and made much better use of the space, despite various challenges. She had lots of good ideas and suggested a wide range of fixtures and fittings. Anna provided us different budget options, giving us good flexibility on how much we wanted to spend. We particularly liked the fact that she obtained quotes from three different contractors and project managed the works from start to finish. We never thought we could afford an interior designer, but because Anna bought everything at discounted prices this covered most of her fees. We are extremely happy with the service Anna provided as she interpreted our brief brilliantly.”

“I found the process of working with Khaya very inspiring. I had my own ideas for my home but with Kates resources and input the whole project became way more interesting. I would recommend highly. Respecting the environment is important to me and Khaya are in line with my thinking.”

“Had a fantastic experience working with Nina the last 5 months on a renovation project in central Bath. Nina did the initial concept for the whole project (90 sqm 2 bedrooms split level flat), paint colour consultation, sourced carpets, blinds, tiles, furniture and decorations. We also had a professional photoshoot which Nina acted as stylist for the day. Not only is Nina extremely knowledgeable, she also understands our requirements very well, she's conscious of our budget, and tries to add value where it created most impact. I'm sure we saved £££ due to her great furniture sourcing skills. She's also a lovely person, very approachable and friendly. It was honestly a pleasure to work with her. I'd recommend her to family and friends and will definitely work with her again.”

“I approached Gemma for help designing my sitting room. I already had some ideas of what I wanted which Gemma really helped me develop. She gave me the confidence to take things further with colour and styles. She understood what I needed and I’m delighted with the outcome. I later went back to Gemma for further help with my hallway - she had some really creative and practical ideas as to how to transform a relatively dark space into a welcoming entrance for my home. Would definitely recommend!”

“I wanted to convert a very dull and crowded spare room/playroom into a relaxing 'sanctuary' for myself and guests; Mandy immediately saw where I was coming from and was in on the project from the start. With an eye for details and a real feel for the person, she carefully put together two different scenarios of environments where I've felt most relaxed - a beach theme and a mountain theme. The mood boards she created were beautiful and I found it difficult to choose between the two themes, though the mountain room she envisaged gave me the restfulness coupled with the cosiness that I wanted. Mandy then measured up and carefully observed how the natural light fell, as well as coming up with clever suggestions on how to deal with elements of the room that couldn't be changed - e.g. the dormer window and the sloping ceilings. From here she worked up a floor plan with soft shapes and functional, but relaxing furnishing ideas. Never forcing her thoughts on me, I had plenty of free range to add my own touches and she showed me how to use colours and the way they can work together. I was much more adventurous than I have been before! It felt like we really worked together as a team to achieve the finished results. So, my 'sanctuary' includes a bed (so we can still welcome guests), a seating/TV/gaming area (where the big kids can still relax, but their paraphernalia is low key/hidden), a reading area with a comfortable chair and footstool, and coffee table (reclaimed and painted). There's a variety of textures and soft colours using mainly greys and dusky pinks and other natural colours. My favourite part is the main wall featuring a mural of a mountain range in silhouette in soft dawn tones. I absolutely love it - as do my guests and kids! I highly recommend Mandy and her work. Her designs are beautiful, thoughtful and functional; whilst she provides plenty of her own ideas she is keen to incorporate your own too. I'll definitely be using Mandy again.”
