Paul is the consummate professional. A great communicator and a pleasure to work alongside. Every job turns out to be very special and clients get real value from the awesome work completed by Paul and his team. Well done Paul.

Comment from Earthborne By Design:

Billy - THANK YOU! I often comment on the importance of the "non measurable" work that is done on our projects i.e. plumbing and electrical work - the stuff that is hidden behind the nicely painted, walls, ceilings and tiles...and what runs under the house to make it all work. Your company Brisbane Plumbing & Gas offer an exceptional, professional and reliable service which helps us achieve the vision we have for our client's projects - and I am hugely grateful for your support.

I have had the pleasure of dealing with Paul from Earthborne by Design on a number of projects he has been working on. His commitment to providing exceptional and quality finishes are second to none. His style, vision and attention to detail are an inspiration. I would absolutely recommend Earthborne By Design on any project where thoughtful design, a creative vision and functional style is a must!

Thank you Kim. Without the support of the supply and trade partners we get to work with - the ideas we put to our clients would remain ideas - and I am so grateful to all the trade and supply partners I get to work with on projects to achieve the vision we have for those projects.

Client

Paul’s vision and design experience transformed a large, dated brick and cathedral celling room and adjacent powder room into a modern contemporary space. Having someone to manage the total project from start to finish was invaluable. Paul’s tradespersons were excellent and the furniture and finishings selected were fitted with the space perfectly. I would recommend Earthborne By Design without hesitation.

We were very lucky to have Paul recommended to us. The Earthborne Team did an outstanding job for us and Paul made us feel very comfortable with his guidance throughout the whole process. His ideas and keen eye for detail transformed our unit from ordinary into something special. Paul far exceeded our expectations and we would highly recommend Earthborne By Design.

Lenny,

Thank you for your kind words, and for entrusting us with your renovation project.

It takes a "leap of faith", to hand over the keys of one's investment to a "perfect stranger" ,and hope that the outcome is a favorable one, particularly if you live interstate, and can only rely on email and telephone communication to report on progress.

At the core of each new project, we strive to ensure we consider the following four key points - Form, Function, Beauty and Value.

We are thrilled that you are happy with how it all turned out, and thank you again for affording us the opportunity.

Paul did a great job capturing our "Zanzibar" vision with ideas and plans with no fuss and as little as input from us as possible in handling the overall of all the suppliers, tradesmen and designers. The end result was spectacular and better than we had ever imagined.

After seeing Paul's work on a "whole house" project, I engaged him to create a more contemporary and stylish feel for my traditional Federation style home (which was feeling quite frumpy, if I'm perfectly honest) ... Paul was able to retain all my major furniture pieces, as well as some of my own decor (oil paintings, craft projects, family photos, etc) but he breathed new life into the rooms through the addition of key pieces (rugs, lamps, art) and through some small new pieces of occasional furniture. Paul worked with the period style of the home but created a much more contemporary and fresh feeling. I will be engaging Paul to renovate my Gold Coast holiday apartment when it next becomes vacant, and I have no hesitation in recommending Paul as being a talented and very effective interior designer.

Paul was professional at all stages of the project. He provided practical advice in the design phase, and was helpfull throughout the construction phase. We are over the moon with the finished product and would readily recommend him to anyone considering home renovations.

Being based in Hobart, Tasmania we needed to find someone to take on the complete update of our small investment unit in East Brisbane. We had a number of quotes and decided on Paul from Earthborne By Design to oversee and complete the project. We had a limited budget and required the job to be done in the shortest possible time, not an easy task. Paul really achieved amazing results on both fronts exceeding our expectations. He listened to what we had in mind but also offered some terrific ideas to maximise the impact of the reno. He was communicative throughout the job without lumping us with any added stress, taking total control of the project. We were recommended to use Paul by a professional aquaintance and would more than happily do the same. Thanks again and all the very best for 2017. Cheers Cameron
