“We initially hired Sam to give us inspiration for our family bathroom. She did just that. She turned a drab looking 'box bath', into a family bathroom with a WOW factor. Then we asked for assistance in one of our bedrooms, then the utility, then the en-suite. Sam has fantastic design insight, picks up very quickly on 'our' styles, likes and dislikes and factors those into stunning design. She has a 'team' around her of trustworthy tradesmen who were all excellent, professional and very tidy. We work away a lot and felt no issues in giving Sam the house keys, managing the projects and having the tradesmen do the work whilst we were away. All in all - can't be recommended highly enough.

Thanks Sam - we can enjoy every room in our house now."

Mr Killick – Tylers Green

“We were working on large house extension and we hired Sam because unlike other interior designers I had met she offered to help me with all the practical design decisions needed on a project like ours as well as the finishing touches we would need at the end stage. So we booked her in as and when we needed her for advice, drawing furniture and lighting plans and sourcing furniture, lighting, fabrics and wall colours. We are a busy family of six and having her at my side helped take away the stress and also took pressure off the builders as they said we were the ‘most organised client’s’ they had ever had. Our new space works better than I had imagined and the colours and textures give it the personality I was hoping for all thanks to Sam. ”

Mrs Ormon, Bovingdon Green

 

 

“I first engaged Sam to provide interior design advice. Sam took time to really understand our likes and dislikes as a couple, personal preferences as individuals and the character of our house to suggest some really fresh and innovative ideas. She is not afraid (in the nicest of ways) to say if she thinks something won't work, but at all times is respectful of her clients ideas and opinions. Sam is very inclusive, not only in the way she works with her clients, but was more than happy to work with other service providers that we had chosen. She is incredibly personable and flexible and I absolutely trust her advice - we have been delighted with the results - a testament to the fact that we have used her services several times over the past year. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Sam and look forward to working with her again in the future.”

Mrs Beckford, Hazlemere.

 

 

“Sam helped us furnish and decorate various rooms in our house. It was a blank canvas when we started, and we had very little furniture or furnishings... so didn't know where to start. Sam gave us loads of ideas and helped come up with solutions that would work within our budget. Unlike other interior designers, she didn't only suggest high-end brands, but helped find lovely brands and products we could afford. We really enjoyed working with Sam - she really listens, and she's very creative and practical. It was a pleasurable experience.”

Mrs Thomas, Bovingdon Green

 

 

“Thankyou for your excellent work. You helped me understand the design process, and provided a personal service at every stage. You understood my taste and needs and now have a beautiful family kitchen and stylish luxury bathrooms. I would not hesitate reccommending her to others, and look forward to working with her over the coming years. ”

Mrs Weavers, Marlow

“Sam was able to create a look that felt really comfortable. She incorporated sample colour boards into the initial drawings, taking digital pictures and emailing me so I could make up my mind. I particularly love the kitchen island in Wild Iris. Sam appreciated the importance of attention to detail and helped me source all the important elements that tie the scheme together.”

Mrs Penn, Ealing
