“The delightful Vikki never disappoints. She has a great work ethic and mixed with her creative flair guarantees good results. I thoroughly enjoyed working with Vikki and continue to recommend her to many of my friends and colleagues looking for interior advice.”

“Tenille consulted with us in planning our ensuite bathroom renovation. The new layout she designed is a winner, and something we just hadn't thought of! Moving the vanity unit and toilet onto a different wall really opens the room up, making it feel roomier and more elegant. We were very grateful for Tenille's patient handling of our enquiry, for her ready understanding of our needs, and pleasant way of suggesting solutions. We can recommend her for her expertise and friendly manner, which made us feel comfortable working with her. Thank you Tenille!”

“Kelly is amazing at what she does and its so easy to discuss any ideas with her. Highly recommend Kelly for any of your design needs”

“Denise, from DSDezines worked with my ideas about what I wanted for my spaces,and provided advice and ideas based on these, while also adding to them. She spent a great deal of time consulting me to understand not only what we liked, but also how we lived in the house so the pieces chosen were not only beautiful, but functional. Another thing I valued was that Denise kept the whole of the interior of my house in mind when planning how to furnish and decorate a room. This meant it was possible to focus on one room, or space at a time, while having an overall plan for the look I was trying to create for the whole house. I love my study, where I work most days. Denise can also access a good range of suppliers, with many options to choose from. She goes above and beyond trying to source just the write piece of furniture, or decoration. Overall, I found Denise and the service she offered helped to make the process of turning out new house into our lovely home exciting and enjoyable. I continue to use her service on an ongoing basis when I'm ready to tackle the nest project in the house. Thanks Denise.”

“We first met Jo-Anne in 2001 as a recommendation from the director at the company I worked for. With my new house plans complete and a kitchen designed by a builder/draftsman (it was horrendous). My first conversation with her was about budget. I didn't have his budget, heck, I had next to nothing to work with and she agreed to work with what we had to spend and the space provided in the plans. Jo-Anne managed to increase our overall bench space for prep, our storage and the overall workability of our kitchen. We loved the narrow cupboard next to the fridge to store the mugs/cups/wine glasses - it made the flow so much easier. An additional glass door cabinet was included external of the kitchen which made perfect sense for my inherited crystal & china. It was more than we could imagine and her chosen colour palette in 2001, still looks current and modern today. Move forward to 2008, we downsized after children to a smaller modest house and on a budget, we were going to renovate the kitchen. A call to Jo-Anne and she changed the U shaped design to an L shape with an island bench with storage on 3 sides and additional banquette seating which our family love!!! The kitchen is a dream to entertain in and feed a young family. Such smart advice on layout, appliances and palette again. Now its 2013, we are building again - a townhouse closer to the city. First port of call after the "new" builder designed our plans was Jo-Anne. She has done the unbelievable again. As an added bonus, she has redesigned my laundry as it sits behind the kitchen - storage queen and appliance brains trust are what comes to mind when I think of Jo-Anne. We hope to start the build in the new year, I can't wait to see her plans come to life. What I love about this new design is that we have a narrow townhouse 6.5 metres wide and Jo-Anne has managed to construct a hidden wall of storage in the kitchen including study, an enormous pantry suitable for my war cupboard supply of canned & staple goods... just in case... an appliance cupboard that will hide my husbands coffee/breakfast mess and smart storage throughout the kitchen & laundry - all of this is hidden and our townhouse still looks large and open - I just close the doors and don't have to look at the mess created minutes before. Love it. I would say that I am an easy client, I think she reads people well from your conversations, but I would probably say that I have a high list of what I want, but I don't have a budget to pay for what I want. Jo-Anne has smart ideas that save your budget, but don't cheapen the end product. Spend wisely on what works. All that and she is also a great cook - oh your muffins were amazing - I have never been offered freshly baked muffins by my builder when I go in for a planning discussion... I just wish Jo-Anne designed entire houses... well I have never asked - she may? Thank you for everything to do with my kitchens. Wendy”

“I originally approached Sally for advice on optimising the functionality of the outdoor space so that it became an extra room. The interior of my home is small and therefore I really needed another area to entertain. The workmanship on the decking is immaculate! I would't have thought to use the picture frame boarder but I admire it every time I am in the space. The next stage will be to plant out the garden beds, which Sally is also helping to arrange when I am ready. I have also always wanted plantations shutters, but thought they were out of my budget. Sally was able to use her industry contacts to obtain a price that was considerably less than the direct quote I received! I am so happy with the affordability, professionalism and genuine care that Substance Within Design and Sally herself have delivered. I would not hesitate to recommend working with Sally on your next project!”

“We have been using Lewisham Interiors since 2010 and would not go anywhere else. Larissa has a warm, friendly nature and her professionalism and attention to detail are second to none. She always listens attentively to our requirements and gently guides and offers expert and relevant advice to help us achieve our end goals. If we can't find exactly the right item, then she will design it for us, with the result far better than we had ever imagined. Any project we have undertaken with Lewisham Interiors has always, without fail, been on time and on budget. Thanks to Larissa, we have been able to bring our incoherent visions to reality!”

“Few months ago, we were looking for assistance crafting the layout for an additional room at home. Though we were eager in incorporating a small balcony and ample storage space, lack of area was the constraint. This is when lathikanairdesign came to the aid. The space was completely transformed, plenty of storage options were created along with a balcony and a much loved seating area beside the book shelves. We're very excited about turning our space into our place. Thank you for everything. Wishing you good luck for your new projects!”

“We hired Emme designs to decorate our penthouse and were very pleased with the results.Before proceeding , with her company,Emmy put our minds at ease by preparing a folio, showing us various materials, colour palette and fabric swatches to be used for our project. Emmy was very professional, communicated well, and was easy to talk to,understanding exactly what we liked…eg. we opted for a minimalist modern decor, for furniture ,T.V. cabinet, study nook etc.She had good contacts, and knew exactly where to source everything from, therefore saving us heaps. Emmy was very reliable and always kept her appointments on time. We highly recommend her for her knowledge and experience.”

“It has been an absolute pleasure engaging with Jung in designing our two townhouses. One of which we live in with our two boys. Jung provided an exceptional service in catering for our living needs and accommodating within our budget. Jung came and spent time respectfully getting to know the feel of what we want for our home and our tastes before making any suggestions! She then came up with amazing ideas for our living areas and bedrooms, reflecting my tastes perfectly. Jung was involved in designing the working drawings for our houses, choosing colors for the interiors, and helping us choose furniture. Jung’s use of space was mind blowing in providing practical interior solutions and making the most of the space for our needs such as creating extra room and storage which added great value to our townhouses. We found Jung had exceptionally strong communication skills and has this powerful ability to take everything we need in mind and bringing it to life. We could not be happier with the final product!”
