INTERIORS:designed

Georgie has a natural artistic flair, an ability to read a client and work out what their style is and a wonderful calm and practical approach. She has been working for me as we refurbished our large open plan kitchen and separate formal drawing room. She has helped source and select tiles, wallpaper, paint, sofa's, cushions, lighting, dining furniture, side tables, kitchen surfaces, carpets, rugs, shelves - pretty much everything. I would thoroughly recommend her to anyone looking for design advice. Her services are reasonable and she has made an enormous contribution to what has been a large refurbishment project. See below for more detail: The refurbishment was quite complicated as the kitchen is modern, quite big and open plan with high and low ceilings mixed together incorporating a dining area living area and large kitchen and island. The kitchen is also open on one side to the drawing room which is a very traditional Victorian room with large fireplace. Georgie advised us on all aspects of design relating to these rooms bringing in expert lighting people for some aspects and a bespoke kitchen company for the kitchen units. She has liaised with the builders involved in the project and ourselves on a regular basis and has been a fantastic advisor throughout. In addition to layout, she sourced all fabrics, tiles, furniture, wall paper and soft furnishings as well as on colours and textures for the kitchen floor, surfaces and cupboards. From the outset she ensured she understood what we were looking and while advising us challenged us to consider things we would not otherwise have thought of, she has ensured we have the most lovely kitchen and drawing room we could have hoped for. Throughout the project she has provided us with excellent guidance. Her calm manner has been wonderful as some inevitable issues occurred with some of the building contractors, but she helped resolve everything with a good result and I've been extremely grateful for everything she has done. She is extremely responsive and professional in her approach and clearly has a passion and eye for design. Throughout the project Georgie was clear about costs, time frames and deliverables and we have been extremely pleased by the outcome. Her fee is very reasonable for her contribution and I would have no hesitation in recommending her for any design project going forward.

We hired Georgie initially to re-design our son's bedroom. He'd recently turned 10 and we needed to update his room. Georgie took the time to listen to my requirements and sat down with my son to get his input too. She created a stunning room which married my design criteria and my son's desire for an 'epic' bedroom. We appreciated her ability to put the 'fun' into functionality. He's now got a space which reflects his personality and will grow with him. Her 'can do' attitude, design flare and professionalism really impressed me. We have since re-hired Georgie to re-fresh the window treatments in my daughter's bedroom and completely re-design the guest suite to change it into the children't playroom. The later being a tricky project as our criteria was to re-use the roman blinds, shelving units and side tables whilst injecting a youthful vibe to the room. We're all delighted with the finished space. We especially love the wallpaper mural which was something we would never have thought of! Innovative, functional ideas that will suit your budget.

I asked Georgie to help me with design thoughts for a narrow hall, stairs and landing. Right from the start Georgie was impressive. She took time to get to know me and the colours and styles and budget I was looking for. The Mood Board she created was spot on so she built my confidence, early on, in the finished look. The wallpaper is just gorgeous - probably something I wouldn't have been confident enough to choose on my own - and I have received countless compliments. The radiator cover addressed the issue of wanting a shelf but having little room for a console. The blinds ad mirror too are fabulous and help to both warm and enlarge the space. What I particularly appreciated about working with Georgie was how she took feedback. If there was something I didn't like I always felt I could tell her without upsetting her - or her feeling I was criticising her ideas (some designers can be quite prickly about that). Georgie kept reminding me that I had to live with the colours/features and I had to be happy with them. When a lamp we both liked and chose together didn't actually work in situ, Georgie calmly took it back with no fuss or drama. Similarly, when I found a ceiling light I liked, she was objective and enthusiastic. I felt this was a real partnership. I am using Georgie again myself later this year for the lounge and dining room and I would recommend her highly to others.

Having run out of steam on our renovation project, we were recommended to seek Georgie's advice upon our furniture & soft furnishings Georgie has been a total pleasure to work with. Always energetic and helpful with tons of fresh ideas. She's really good at listening to the client's needs and own thoughts and then providing swift advice full of fresh creative ideas within budget. She has a real eye for colour and how to inject personality into a space. I would not hesitate to recommend Georgie for any design project no matter how large or small.

Tribal Gathering was our theme and from the outset we were inspired. We would definitely recommend INTERIORS:designed for your interior design project. Georgie has helped us create fabulous rooms that we love and whilst being nudged out of our comfort zone and normal colour palette her ideas and input ensured that the end result still captures "us". Georgie is very personable to work with and was happy to adapt ideas as our project developed. As well as giving us invaluable advice and guidance, she has helped us learn from the experience so we feel confident in incorporating ideas in other rooms.

We were struggling to put together a design scheme for a sensitive project when we turned to Georgie. Right from the start, her clear sighted vision for the space enabled us was hugely reassuring. We were working to a tight timescale, but Georgie's flexibility enabled us to make immediate progress. To say that we are pleased with the end result is an understatement. We have been left with a peaceful and welcoming space which has totally exceeded our expectations. Georgie was able to show us how to combine elements I never would have imagined would work together, creating an end result that is simply stunning.

We initially hired Georgie to work on a small project in our Wimbledon house. We've recently moved to a larger house in Chobham which needed extensive re-modelling and immediately thought of Georgie. Her brief was to produce interior design schemes for our daughter's bedrooms (aged 15 and 12),the guest suite and three en-suite bathrooms. Georgie happily worked alongside our major contractor, the architect and all of the trades; producing lighting plans and drawings. We spent a lot of time working together to source flooring, sanitary ware, tiles, custom built wardrobes, wallpaper, paints, lighting and fabrics. Having her beside me helping us make decisions meant the process was calmer and the end result perfectly captures our style and aspirations for our new house.

Georgie has fantastic knowledge of her industry and makes what I find impossible look so easy. She is great to work with. She's patient, flexible and the rooms which Georgie has designed for us are absolutely our favourite rooms in the house! So we're signing up for some more! Her attention to detail is wonderful. Georgie really listens, and she translates those initial concepts into a beautiful end result. A 5* service.
