Downsizing Services in Cannon Hill, Queensland

“I have a house in west end which was originally a single level 3 bedroom workers cottage. The house was built in underneath 5 years ago and the upper level (original house) was left un touched and rented in its original state. For added income I decided to rent out the lower levels and moved into the upper one. I was struggling with ideas on how to get the original house (over one hundred years old) to blend in and work with the newer, more modern lower levels. I appointed Dani Louis, to initially get ideas on colour schemes, light fittings, kitchen and bathroom layouts etc. Dani, was extremely helpful and full of great ideas. The house has kept some of its original features ie VJ walls etc, but now blends in nicely, mixing old world with new. Dani has tremendous buying power and sources great deals on fittings, fixtures etc and passes on her savings for all items as part of her service, which was amazing because the savings added up to be a lot more than the fee she charged. I am a very happy customer and would highly recommend Dani Louis Design to anybody wanting to undertake any form of renovation or design consultation. I am happy to be contacted if you would like to discuss any of the above 0404034213 Marcus Newton.”

“I would highly recommend the services of DesignTank to anyone! Estelle is fantastic and can work through designing areas and assist with the selections as required. It takes all of the time and hassle out of what can be a very overwhelming process. Builders, architects, craftspeople, anyone - recommending Estelle to your clients is a great way to assist them through this process. DesignTank worked with me on floor plans, kitchen, laundry and bathroom designs, recommended trades people and completed colour, tiles, light, window and door and bathroom fittings. You name it, Estelle did it. She was amazing and had great ideas and is friendly, professional and fun to boot!”

“Coming from a studio and into my first house, I was lost. Lynda instantly understood the look I was after and even showed me new ways to update my space that I hadn't thought of. Lynda has a great sense of colour and spatial awareness, showing me options I never would have found alone, and styling different parts of my home with lifestyle and design-led thinking.”

“I engaged Meraki Home Design to stage my home when I listed it for sale. Carly did a great job and met some demanding timeframes. I was very happy with the results and would be happy to use Meraki again. Thanks, Carly.”

“Gabrielle helped me with the styling of our house prior to sale. She did a phenomenal job in very limited time and with a small budget. The house sold for more than 10% over the initial estimates that estate agents gave us. We were extremely happy with Gabrielle's service as well as the end result. Highly recommend her.”

“Gary undertook the redecoration of the living spaces of my home during 2013, advised on the colour scheme for the exterior and provided some of the interior furniture from his collection. The result is outstanding and I am particularly pleased with the external colours chosen and the new furniture and artwork internally. Everything Gary suggested was just what I needed but I could never have come up with the solutions on my own. In addition, let me say that it was an absolute pleasure to work with Gary and I have no hesitation in recommending him to prospective clients.”

“Natasha is a spatial expert with an exceptional eye for design and the ability to immediately see potential. We asked Natasha to assist us with a bathroom, laundry & ensuite renovation. She listened to our issues with the existing layout and offered a fresh prospective reflecting our personal taste. Natasha came up with ideas incorporating extra space and offering alternative ideas that we would have not considered but made so much sense. The end result was fantastic, the new design not only making use of space but combining the natural light & much needed storage. We were really happy with her friendly advice and her ability to understand what we wanted to achieve. I would highly recommend Bankson Design. Natasha has had many years’ experience in her field of expertise and is dedicated to her craft. She has the ability to think outside the square, taking the common sense approach without compromising results. Her experience spans both residential and commercial. As well as Nastash’a design credentials, Natasha’s reputation is built on exceptional client service, attention to detail and project management experience.”

“As a real estate agent, I know the importance of presentation to help my clients achieve the best price for their property. In this situation the property was a partially renovated weatherboard cottage on acreage with beautiful views. I recommended Tracey McLeod's services to the client as there were many issues to be resolved. Tracey's specialty lies in using as much of the client's own furniture as possible. She works closely with the client to remove what is not working, highlights the pieces which stand out and then builds on that with any other additions required. She makes it all work together to maximises the positive features and downplay any flaws. She has great people skills, and is able to work within any situation. And most importantly she works with their budget in mind, and within the allotted time frame. Tracey's professionalism, her immediate understanding of where the property's value lay, and her hard work meant that the house was a beautifully styled and presented home ready for professional photos in less than a week. The difference was amazing. And resulted in a contract in 12 days and for $75,000 more than we would have achieved had we not used her services. As an agent, l strongly recommend Tracey McLeod's services to anyone looking to maximise their sale price, and shorten the number of days on the market. As an homeowner, I can recommend her to anyone wanting to bring out the best in their home, not only aesthetically, but also with regards to the way the rooms are utilised ... She will make you fall in love with your home all over again.”

“Was an absolute pleasure working with you Bianca! You really did exceed our expectations your styling was perfection! We can’t wait to see what you come up with for our next project! Thank you so much!”
