Bergamot Interiors

Having had such a wonderful experience and result with Jess the first time around, we had no hesitation in asking for her expertise when we took on a new property. Jess is incredibly diligent, professional and a joy to work with, delivering exactly what we were looking for and on time which was amazing given the challenges of the last year! Jess was able to translate our ideas into reality and transform our cottage into a beautiful home which works for us and always went that extra mile to ensure that everything from bespoke joinery to upholstery to finishing touches were just right. Jess has such a brilliant eye for detail and finish which means the end result is stunning, we could not be happier and would not hesitate to work with Jess again.

We worked with Bergamot Interiors recently on a project involving a mixture of bespoke joinery. Jess has an exceptional eye for detail and design and this really shows in the end product. She was a pleasure to work with and we look forward to collaborating on projects in the near future.

We hired Jess to design our reception room, master bedroom and dressing room, which included all interior aspects of furnishings, layout and bespoke carpentry. Jess was extremely professional and seamlessly put everything together behind the scenes taking all of the stresses out of coordinating the details. It was incredible that Jess was able to provide a portfolio of ideas after just a couple of meetings when at the start we were completely unsure of what it was we were trying to achieve. The end result surpassed anything we could have envisaged and was delivered in budget and on time which was fantastic. Just to highlight that Jess went to extraordinarily lengths to deliver some of our ideas which included finding someone at the other end of the country to make a bespoke one of a kind light fitting that resembled an inspirational picture I had found - nothing was too difficult or could not be overcome. The light is a beautiful piece that we treasure. Outside of the design and implentation process Jess also provided helpful tips and go to places to find products that she was aware we would like, completely unprompted. The overal result is that we are delighted with how Jess has helped us transform our home and cannot recommend her abilities highly enough.

We used Jess to help us redesign our teenage children's bedrooms and a shared games room. Throughout the project Jess was efficient and incredibly flexible, listening to our ideas and changing things to suit the needs requests of the children. Her ideas for the three spaces were amazing and she really listened to all our needs and adapted the design accordingly. Jess is great to work with and project managed the work incredibly well. The whole process was very easy and she took any potential stress away. I would thoroughly recommend her for any interior design work and will definitely be working with her again in the future.

We engaged Jess to help us with the interior architecture of our planned new build home. This included all room layouts and design and specification of the finishes to be used. Jess was extremely good at understanding our tastes and translating them into the vision of our home. Jess was very professional and her advice was practical and creative. Jess has left us with guidance and tools that will be invaluable throughout the build!

It was a pleasure to work with Jess McDonald on our home. She provided us with great ideas, was creative and very professional. Having the 3-D bathroom and kitchen drawings particularly helped us to visualise how we could make the most effective use of our space. She listened to what we wanted, discussed pros and cons for various options and offered practical solutions where necessary.

‘We hired Jess to design our living room, kitchen and dining room. Jess is absolutely wonderful as both a designer and project manager. She has amazing attention to detail with sourcing. She was so clever in helping us resolve the different points of view we had on what to do in our project. We absolutely love the bespoke furniture, joinery, lighting and details created in our new rooms. We would unhesitatingly recommend you use her if you can’.

I am always very impressed with the standard of Jess McDonald's work. It makes my life as a photographer much more straight forward because the rooms always look amazing. She has a great eye for what looks good and is a pleasure to work with.
