“We had several rooms which were functional but unfinished and in need of a lift. I was struggling to get the look that I wanted. Kate came in and waved her magic wand creating finishing touches to these spaces that we now feel more attached to, more at home in, and now really enjoy. 

Kate quickly identified our style preferences and with her exceptionally clever eye and taste was able to select very affordable pieces of furniture, accessories and soft furnishings to lift and transform our rooms, without the need for a major makeover. She worked with what we had, or wanted to keep, adding stylish touches that made all the difference. She carefully selected replacement pieces of furniture which we really like, but without being extravagant on the budget.

I would 100% recommend Kate not just because of her amazing ability in interior design, but also because she was so cost effective with our budget, and is such a lovely person to have in your home and to work with.”

“We are absolutely delighted with the designs Kate crafted for us, and it was such a joy working with her. She listened (extensively!), and both respected and pushed the bounds of our design bravery in perfect balance.

Tricky briefs were met, including a playroom-by-day and dining-room-by-night, and transforming the lounge from cold and awkward to cozy and restful. Kate’s attention to detail stands out, with well thought through trade-offs in the budget, careful measurement, and a reason behind each choice.

The process worked really well for us - excellent communication throughout, a feeling of ownership of the designs whilst being relieved of the design headspace, and provision of a ‘buy list’ rather than pressure to do everything straight away. We are enjoying the result immensely, and are so grateful. Thank you Kate!”

“Kate has been an absolute joy to work with – I’m so glad that she’s been able to hold our hands through the design process. Kate has designed two rooms for us, and has helped as an ad-hoc consultant on a third.

She’s created some beautifully stylish yet highly functional spaces that will be a pleasure to spend time in, all within a very reasonable budget. She is an extremely talented listener, and quickly understood what we needed, even if we felt a bit vague and waffly at times. She is also hugely diplomatic and can sensitively steer a course between two members of a couple who don’t necessarily have identical style opinions!

Kate has an impressive and in-depth knowledge of her field, and always seems to be able to pull just the right fabric sample or paint colour out of her bag of tricks. She has a creative flair, suggesting design solutions we would never have thought of, but which really work. In addition to this, her friendly, positive and down-to-earth attitude mean that meetings with Kate are always a pleasure. I can’t recommend her highly enough”
