J Stanley Interiors

We love working with Jennyfer. She has produced beautiful designs for rooms for two of my children - the two littlest, with the smallest rooms, who needed something special and also practical as they grow up. Jenn listened really closely to the kids as well as to me, and made suggestions that really reflected their likes and interests, as well as being very practical, beautiful and affordable. We are thrilled with the outcome! More recently, we also engaged Jenn for a much smaller piece of work just to give some advice about our main living space which I wanted to tweak rather than entirely re-do. Within an hour Jenn was able to build on my ideas and solve niggles that had been bugging me for ages. She sent me some links immediately to good suppliers of the few bits and pieces I needed to add, and we're now cracking on to make the changes we discussed. She's lovely - very low key, very knowledgeable, great listener, great eye, really intuitive. I can't recommend her highly enough and will definitely look forward to working with her again.

Neither I nor my flat received much attention when I was in full flow, at work. In my opinion my flat has never been particularly colourful or even awfully comfortable. Although I tried, I tended to make decisions based on how quickly I could choose a colour and then do the painting. It was where I lived and to some extent like many others in this busy life, I have used it quite extensively for work as well. Over the years the flat had become quite dull. This time I decided it made sense to get a professional interior designer with a proven ability to successfully drive through a reasonably complex project. I needed a skilled one with a strong personality who was good at working with others, resolving any issues with an overall view of how things could be. After some research, I found myself on the phone to Jennyfer and after a number of conversations with her and a meeting, we signed contracts and I was pleased to be working with her. Right from the start, Jennyfer had a real warmth in the manner in which she talked with people and in listening to what people had to say to her. She dealt with all communications as quickly as possible. I asked Jennyfer to design the living room, bedrooms and hallway and to suggest paint colours to incorporate the kitchen and bathroom of my flat and to be the project manager. Jennyfer said yes and I was hugely pleased. At Jennyfer’s first visit she gave me a lovely oil painting which was the inspiration for the colour scheme throughout the flat. This effectively assisted me to focus-in on colour choices. Jennyfer was then able to quickly arrange for paint testers, curtain swatches, flooring and wallpaper samples to be sent. She asked what I had in mind and Jennyfer fairly quickly began to appreciate what I hoped for and expected and came back to me with design suggestions and plans which I thought fitted the brief and more. She readily recommended and arranged for a contractor whom she had successfully worked with who could complete all the necessary works. Jennyfer successfully challenged me to think about colours and wallpaper which I would not have considered. For example, Jennyfer encouraged me to use wallpaper and deep blue wall paint, in the bedroom which I ordinarily would not have chosen, but now I really like it. Jennyfer signposted me to retailers and suppliers who could provide all that was required to complete the design plan. She was able to cheerfully accompany me on a number of visits to furniture stores and provided guidance and inspiration to assist my choices. Jennyfer carefully handled the given budget, which she regularly updated and also made me aware of options to save money which could be spent on my priorities. Jennyfer is a talented interior designer with all the required skills to both inspire design choices and project manage effectively to complete the design brief and I am very pleased with how my flat now looks and functions.

Jennyfer helped us to design our two children’s rooms and our new garden house which is quite big. Jennyfer is intuitive, efficient, super kind and worked to our budget. We are getting her back next month to complete the master bedroom and kitchen! HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

Jennyfer has been helping with our front rooms - she has been lovely to work with - taking my preferences into account while making suggestions that I would not have thought of - but love. The pieces Jennyfer has suggested have also been practical and within budget. I’m looking forward to continuing this project with Jennyfer’s help.

We commissioned Jennyfer's design and project Mgmt services for the bedroom, a study and the living room. Thoughout the whole process, Jennyfer was extremely professional, easy to work with (very thoughtful and patient) and showed a keen eye for design. Highlights include Jennyfer bringing us around to shop for (great) furniture options, mood boarding potential room designs and conducting project management (eg coordinating deliveries, liaising with tradesmen etc) whilst we were out of the country. She is clearly a skilled and experienced project manager, reprioritising our activities based on our sometimes difficult timelines. Additionally, she'd also helped to introduce and coordinate tradesmen (decorator, electrician and handyman) to bring the house up to a good condition with practically no oversight from myself or my partner, which had put us at ease especially when we were abroad during the "critical" period. The works were done to an exceptionally high standard and we are very happy with the result. Jennyfer's eye for design is worth particular praise as she's introduced options we wouldn't have otherwise considered (and really love now!) - Jennyfer educated us thoroughly in how good home design works and challenged us appropriately where we were getting too narrowed down (or didn't know where to start). For instance, we for once had never considered wallpapering but are now sold, particularly after seeing how it can be executed so aesthetically through Jennyfer's recommendation (and witnessing her very own home!) We would highly recommend Jennyfer to anyone seeking design services/project management for their house project (whether this is your first or your tenth house) - hoping to work on our next one with her in the future.

Jennyfer helped us design our 13year old daughter’s very odd but large shaped attic bedroom to see her through teenage hood. She worked closely with myself and my daughter to combine the importance of functionality and decor that works for a young person. She came up with a beautiful colour scheme based on my daughter’s taste but also with my approval. She is kind, creative, adaptable and efficient in her approach with excellent ideas and knowledge of design. An absolute delight to work with and goes the extra mile especially when a teen changes their mind about something:)

Jennyfer helped us with two rooms in our house including spatial design, redecorating ideas and a shopping list. Using Jennyfer gave us some ideas we would never have considered on our own. She was friendly, knowledgable and generous with her time throughout. Happy to recommend.

Our project with Jennyfer was the first time we had enlisted the help of an interior designer, and we couldn’t have asked for better partner. She was patient, kind, and intuitive; quickly understanding our styles, goals, and budget. Jenn guided us through the process, first really listening in order to understand our style, then creating our mood boards, joining us shopping for furniture, and designing a gorgeous living room space we never would have dreamed of ourselves. She helped us get comfortable with some bold colour choices, and bring colours and patterns together in a way we never would have envisioned. She also connected us with tradespeople for carpet, curtains, and electricals which was incredibly helpful. As other reviewers mention she is a talented designed, very generous with her time and keeps your budget in mind when helping source beautiful materials for your space. We can recommend her without hesitation and hope to work with her again.

Jennyfer came highly recommended and did not disappoint. We had not ever used the services of an interior designer before and did not know what the process entailed; Jennyfer immediately put us at ease and was thoughtful, patient and client-focused throughout the design and execution. What really impressed however was her innovative ideas to make the best of an awkwardly shaped room: how the colour scheme would be effected by the light at different times of the day, and how to use furniture we already had. Additionally, Jennyfer was happy to recommend and liaise with trades and utilise her contacts to source products such as paints and wallpaper. Overall, we were very impressed and would not hesitate to recommend Jennyfer to anyone who needs a bit of imagination to thing about their home interiors a little differently - she is a mine of ideas and suggestions.

Jenn’s experience was invaluable to our project. She introduced ideas and energy which lifted our approach, leading to room designs we love. Thank you so much! Bee & Simon

This was our first "attempt" to sort out our house... so did not know exactly what to expect .. but we could not have been luckier. Jennifer is very patient and kind , explaining at every step the possible options and her ideas. At the same time she listened and incorporated some of ours and at the same time gently dismissed some of the weirdest.. She was also able to recommend trusted companies (e.g wallpaper and decorating) and went out of her way to find some specific products we needed. She also fully understood our needs and always took the $ in mind. She is also very generous with her time . She is never in a rush ... Overall a great experience and now to the next big thing .. the kitchen! Veronica and Andrea

Hiring Jennyfer to help us furnish and decorate our downstairs has been one of the best decisions we have ever made. She went above and beyond for us, and made everything so easy. We would never have gotten half the things done to the house that we have done. Jennyfer took the stress out of making decisions and following through with planning. I would recommend her 100 times over. She has been an absolute pleasure, and we have had so many compliments on our house! We finally have a house we are proud of and it wouldn’t have happened without her.
