emme designs

We were not sure how to do the interior of the house after moving in, and left it unfurnished for a couple of years until we found Emmy. She spent time listening and developing ideas about the house, and transformed our spaces with a beautiful selection of curtains, rugs, furniture and accessories. We especially like spending time in our living room and dining rooms. Emmy was very professional, patient and easy to talk. She also gave us tips about how to arrange the space for other areas with existing furniture. Our family is very happy – except my son who is upset he can’t play basketball inside anymore. Thank you Emmy!

I moved into a new modern townhouse, all of my furniture from the previous house did not fit or seem right in the new place. Emme was recommended to me by a good friend, she brings a wealth of design and current product knowledge to her work. Emme prepared a client report that addressed my needs and a folio that provided options for the selected areas. In particular arranging Artwork, Soft Furnishings and all furniture. She also prepared a design/drawing for the study and arranged for the constructing and installation of the study furniture. Best part was going shopping with her. She was very professional, listens and understands what you want your house to look/feel like. Emme is very reliable, always kept her appointments on time; meeting tradespeople and deliveries at my house. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Emmy was easy to work with and listened to our needs. Essentially we wanted to get the house ready for sale and sought her ideas . We have a brown tiled roof that we didn't want to replace so asked that she would select colours that would work well with this, which she did and we are very happy with the result.

Emme is a charming designer who is engaging and very easy to deal with. A tasteful stylist with an acute attention to detail. All her research and suggestions have delivered to us a modern stylish penthouse. Thank you Emme, not only for the outcome but the journey. Maria and Emile

I moved into a new modern house and none of my furniture from my previous house "worked". Found Emme on Houzz and she worked with me to design and furnish the spaces. Emme listened to what I liked, gently guided me away from my more extreme choices and worked in with some of my quirky purchases. I never felt pushed into something I didn't like. Best part was going shopping with Emme and getting the furniture custom made to suit the house (Sofa, chairs, gorgeous handmade dining table). The fabrics she recommended are perfect. The scope of the project grew as we went along (my choice) and I am delighted with the finished product. I highly recommend Emme as a professional who listens and works collaboratively with her client.

Emmy was very understanding and took on board our input to create the exterior and interior designs for our new home build in Plenty. Her response to our brief was bang on point from the colours and material choices al the way through to delivering within our budget. We cant wait to see how our new home comes together. Thanks Emmy!

We chose Emme Designs after spending hours scrolling through photos and websites trying to find a designer to help us modernize and redecorate your home, and we couldn't be happier. Emmy is a professional with the patience of a saint, always available to answer questions and very understanding when it comes to times of indecision . My husband and I have different tastes when it comes to home decor and Emmy was able to come up with a design that we both love. She worked in existing pieces that we wanted to keep as well as new pieces that we fell in love with prior to meeting with her. Her merry band of tradesmen are amazing. We couldn't be happier with the work completed by the kitchen crew and the building crew, both were professional and did quality work. Emmy continues to supply unprecedented customer service answering questions that come up from time to time. Emmy is a consummate professional who is a pleasure to work with, her easy going nature and knowledge of the her industry make her an absolute gem. We take great pleasure in recommending Emme Designs.

To say I was totally overwhelmed by the prospect of downsizing from a 4 bedroom family home to a 2 bedroom, very small apartment, is an understatement. I knew it was critical for me to make the right decorating choices in such a small space. Enter Emmy from Emme designs. Emmy came highly recommended by a very close friend who had engaged Emmy for her own home. I had seen the end result of her home and loved it! My first meeting with Emmy was in my family home - it was important to me that Emmy gain a sense of who I was and my personal aesthetic. I wanted her to feel the surrounds of my home. I immediately liked her warmth and approachability and knew we would work well together. At all stages along the process, Emmy has been totally open to my suggestions, gently guiding me if I was way off track, and offering invaluable recommendations along the way. The end result is a beautiful apartment which I’m now proud to call home. I could not have achieved the same outcome without Emmy’s guidance, honesty, professionalism, flexibililty, and willingness to be beside me every step of the way. Nothing was ever too much trouble. I’m so thrilled with my home, and even more thrilled that I now consider Emmy a friend.

Emmy – a true professional who invested time in understanding our preferences, needs and expectations to furnish our new home. A reflective listener, she challenged our thinking and collaborated to effortlessly tailor our interior to achieve beautifully appointed spaces. Existing pieces were seamlessly integrated and great advice given for window treatments, colour schemes and art work. Communication was responsive and at point of need. Emmy has our strongest recommendation.

We bought a house to be closer to the kids school that we really liked, but didn't love. Emmy's brief was to help us reconfigure it so we loved it. This included some internal structural changes to walls; redesign of the kitchen, laundry, office, media room and pantry (including cabinetry); and interior decoration of most rooms. Emmy worked collaboratively with us on the concept for each room and was really good at helping us strike the balance of practicality (with 2 kids under 6) and the aesthetic. The builders and cabinet makers that she used delivered consistently high quality work with excellent attention to detail. As with any design work, there were a few curve balls along the way, and Emmy really engaged with us to work through these within our budget. Our bedroom suite is truly spectacular and I genuinely enjoy doing the laundry now. She has also helped us pick some artwork, which we would have struggled to do on our own, but which we admire every day. I would recommend Emmy highly for the quality of work and collaborative approach.

"Wow looks like a display home" is a common comment we hear when we have visitors after the makeover by Emme Designs of our lounge, dinning and study rooms. Emme works with you and transforms your ideas into reality in a very professional yet friendly manner. Her service is exceptional, and we would say over and above our expectations- I mean who would meet a delivery when you are not at home! recommend Emme for any makeover you have in mind.

Emmy is a consummate professional, down to earth and is a pleasure to work with. She is hands on, working with clients on their project from start to finish. Nothing is too much trouble for her. She delivers when promised, regardless of her workload or other commitments. Emmy has a wonderful eye for detail and color. She was able to take our ideas and transform them into realities. Importantly, she never lost sight of the look and feel that we wanted. Her selections are always comfortable and elegant. Emmy goes the extra mile to make sure all the details are thought through and superbly executed. Working with Emmy has been a wonderful experience. We would have no hesitation recommending Emmy and know that anyone using her will be inspired and enthused.

Emme Designs I'm so happy we found you! Thank you for changing my unit into a display home which is now Picture Perfect! My son and I love it as do my family & friends who now all have your contact details as well. You LISTENED to what I was saying and based on that you created my little piece of home gem! Your easy, relaxed and professional approach allowed me to express myself comfortable and you delivering the perfect results. You seek the latest & greatest and bring these ideas into people's homes. Thank You as I never pictured my home to look as beautiful as it does.

Very glad to have chosen Emmy to do both the interior design and project management of our renovation. Her design philosophy really aligned with ours and her project management work was what kept us sane through the long duration of the project.

We highly recommend Emme Designs. Emmy Assisted and managed our renovation and we are extremely happy with the process and result. Would use again and refer to friends & family.

Emmy from Emme designs was a pleasure to work with. Her concepts were perfect for our family home. She really listened to our needs and we really love living in the beautiful spaces she helped create. Budget requests were adhered to and communication on furniture arrival was excellent. We would highly recommend Emme Designs.

Provides an excellent interior design and project management service. As first-time renovators we relied on her to guide us through the confusing process of renovations, and take the stress out of finding and organizing tradespeople for the various jobs. She listened carefully to our brief, found solutions for all our design and logistical questions, and provided a concept that brought to life what we sometimes struggled to articulate. Quotes with options were provided promptly and were appropriate for the budget that we had provided. Communication throughout the project was regular and detailed, and any problems were rapidly relayed to us and resolved. We received a professional and personalized service. We felt that no question was too small, and that Emmy often went the extra mile to help make our house a home.

Emmy assisted me very professionally and patiently throughout the entire process. She made my parents house really nice and and we are very happy with the result!

Thank you Emme for your beautiful planning work in scoping out the joinery design / fixtures & fittings for our renovation. Your vision has helped us create what will be a gorgeous home that will also be functional for our family needs.

We highly recommend Emmy Design to anyone who wants modern interior design for their homes. Recently, we hired Emmy Design to help us to renovate our home. Emmy’s work consisted of choosing new wall colors, artwork, carpets, tiles, new pieces of furniture in many rooms, and much more. Emmy demonstrated an impressive level of expertise and professionalism throughout the entire renovation process. She has transformed our home from a traditional style to a model style. We are very happy with her modern design and really enjoy our new home now. We highly recommend Emmy Design to you because: 1. Emmy is an exceptional interior designer who is passionate and extremely knowledgeable about her work. 2. Emmy treated us with patience and respect. Whenever we have any questions or requirements, she always answers us with patience and try her best to meet our requirements. 3. Last but not least, Emmy treated us like her friends.

Emmy was recommended to me to assist with furnishing our living and dining room after a small extension. I am really happy with the results and Emmy has been a pleasure to work with. She is very efficient and reliable and listens to the client whilst gently making suggestions using her expertise. She has followed up on any enquiry promptly and thoroughly and I would definitely recommend her.

I engaged Emmy to help me decorate and furnish our brand new home from top to bottom. She did an amazing job from start to finish and nothing was too much trouble. The result is fantastic and I couldn't be happier. Emmy has a great sense of style and was able to suggest and source ideas and products that never would have occurred to me and all within my budget. She was also a great help in making suggestions on some of the fit-out decisions and was happy to liaise with architects and builders. Emmy was always extremely professional and meeting deadlines was never an issue. Above all Emmy is a really nice person, very easy to deal with and I have already referred her services to a number of people.

Emmy came recommended by a friend and we have since recommended her to some of our friends! She provides a personal touch while remaining completely professional. She spent time getting the brief right, understanding our own style and likes/dislikes and therefore we were happy with everything she recommended. She is linked to some great contractors too so you are therefore guaranteed quality work.

Emmy from Emme Designs helped us select our colour scheme and materials for our extension. Emmy's services made choosing everything a lot easier. Emmy listened to us and helped us work out our style. Once this was done she came back with a selections of materials and colours that suited our style. This made the selection process a lot easier. We then received a report and selections schedule that we could provide our builder. Emmy's services made planning our build a lot more enjoyable. Emmy is very professions, accommodating, punctual, adaptable and met our timelines. We would definitely recommend Emme Designs to our friends.

Thank you Emmy. We are very happy with your design, professionalism and customer service. Having 3 children in the house, we thought that it would never be possible to have a decent lounge but your design has exceeded our expectations. We are really enjoying our new beautifully transformed lounge/ dining rooms. Really appreciate it.

Thank you Emmy for your professional advice and coordination, it is really nice to work with you. We do really appreciate having such a beautiful living and dining space to come home to, and our family is really able to enjoy using the space and relax because it is so comfy yet composed. The colour board that you presented is now translated into amazing items around the room that helps it look finished. The entertainment unit is perfect. We love the look and feel of everything and can't really quite believe we live in it but we do! I hope that I will get the rest of the house decluttered soon so that we can get the rest of the rooms done as well. Without you I would never have even gotten around to find even half the things that we got now, and I truly appreciate the time and effort you went to get the job done to perfection.

We moved from a Californian bungalow to the contemporary styled home (9 years old) and we wanted assistance with deciding what furniture to take with us and how we would style our new home. I selected Emmy from "houzz" largely based on her great reviews which particularly highlighted her consultative manner with clients. I also checked out the photos of her completed work. When we met I knew that I had made the right decision and my husband was delighted with her services. Emmy has great suppliers and trades people. Thanks to Emmy we have accomplished a huge amount in 10 months - external painting, advice on landscaping and internal renovations (new kitchen, pantry, laundry, powder room & guest ensuite), new TV & Lounge cabinetry, furniture, wall art, lighting, window coverings, lighting and of course the overall colour scheme. We are absolutely thrilled with the results and would not hesitate to recommend Emmy services. In addition to providing a quality service, Emmy is a warm and caring person.

We engaged Emmy to help us with interior and exterior selections, designs and furniture for our new home we recently built, and we are so happy with the result! From our first meeting with Emmy through to the finishing touches of vases and artwork, it has been pleasurable and stress free experience. Emmy put together a concept report/board for the whole house (color selections, taps, basins, flooring, lighting etc....) and designed our tv/fireplace cabinet wall. She organized our curtains and blinds and helped us choose furniture. She also had a beautiful dining table custom made for us. It all came together so well, our home feels so luxurious but still warm and inviting. We can't thank Emmy enough for her help, we absolutely love our home that Emmy helped us create and would highly recommend her! Thanks Emmy - Glen and Mel.

I have been collaborating with Emme Designs on Window Furnishings for 7 years. She is committed to giving her clients the best possible solutions in all aspects of the designs. Emmy approaches each and every job as a true professional. Planning and time management is outstanding.

We had been thinking about renovating our kitchen for a few years, had a lot of ideas but just couldn’t pull it altogether, so after a bit or research we engaged Emmy. Not only did Emmy design an amazing kitchen, she opened the living areas and entrance making the whole front of the house flow. Emmy really listen to me, my ideas & requirements, and designed me functional kitchen that complemented the adjoining family lounge and stone fire place. Thank you Emmy.

I cannot praise this Company enough, from my original meeting and having no idea at all what I wanted, and by just giving them my colour scheme from the external to the interior of the house the concept that was presented to me was excellent and worked in very well. I'm very happy with choosing Emme Designs as I now have a home that I love not just a house.

We've just completed an entire transformation of our home with Emme Designs and we couldn't be happier. From start to finish, Emme listened carefully to what we wanted to achieve and the end result is almost a brand new home that we absolutely love and can't wait to get home to every day. Our Formal Living / Family Room, Retreat, Study and Master Bedroom have received an "Emme make-over" and we're now planning for "whats next". We would highly recommend Emme to anyone who needs interior design. Emme is very personable and attentive to your expectations and is truly focussed on making certain the end result is perfect.

Emmy has exceptional customer service and I really love her ideas. My home has improved dramatically since she has been helping me . I am very proud of the way it looks now.

We hired Emme Designs to help with our 80's house renovation. We didn't know where to start but thankfully Emmy had many ideas and was able to guide us in the right direction. With her expertise she helped create a fresh new interior to our home which has totally transformed it making it look brand new while still maintaining some of the character of the original interior. Emmy was able to narrow down material choices, colours, tiles, floorboards, carpet, finishes on cabinetry etc and made the whole process seem easy. She introduced us to her very capable and professional team of tradesmen, who were able to renovate around our family while we lived in the house. Emmy constantly kept us updated throughout the renovation, with site meetings, emails and phone calls. She was very friendly and professional and understood the products that would work for us within our budget. We are very pleased with the outcome and would highly recommend emme designs.

Emmy helped us with various interior (and a few exterior) design aspects for our extension, including choosing paint colours, floor finishes, lighting, bathroom fittings, stairway design. She came to our house and spent maybe 1 1/2 hours looking at our plans, and discussing what we were after and the kind of designs that we liked. Within about 2 weeks she had a well presented and bound report and colour board ready and came out again to go through it with us. We were very happy with all of the choices that she had made and the way that the information was presented. I had some follow up questions and Emmy reponded very quickly to these. Given the work Emmy did I thought the price was pretty reasonable. We didn't end up proceeding with our extension, so I can't really say how Emmy's suggestions worked out, but I'm pretty confident that it would have looked great. There was really only one thing that we implemented for part of the existing house (window paint colour), which did look very good. We would definitely consider Emmy for any similar future work we will do.

We recently built a new home and felt very daunted by the prospect of furnishing it. Emmy not only made it simple, she made it enjoyable. She managed the process for us from start to finish and was so flexible and accommodating and we are delighted with the results. Emmy uses local manufacturers so we were able to have some custom pieces and she worked closely with our builder to ensure most of the furniture was ready when we moved in. Highly recommended!

We have worked with Emmy on multiple occasions and she has always taken her time to get the best products and selections for her customers. She discusses the needs and situation of the client to ensure we provide a suitable product, and the finished product always looks stunning.

I would like to give Emmy a great big thankyou for her professionalism, ongoing assistance and her wonderful team of contractors who together gave new life to my home. I had been struggling for some time trying to select the interior and exterior house paint colours, carpets., lights and blinds - it was difficult to see the big picture. Understanding its a big outlay of finances I wanted to make the right decision. Then along came Emmy. Emmy initially met with me to view the home and hear my ideas. In no time Emmy presented her plans along with samples, colour suggestions while all the time working with my individual style. I now have a home that is a joy to live and socialise in as well as now being enduring.

I can’t thank Emmy from Emme designs enough for been there from the start of my house extension project to the end helping me with interior design decisions every step of the way which was facilitated by been so approachable and easy to get along with. Emmy spent time with me to get a feel and understand what I liked and didn’t like and guided me all the way, providing various options from tiles, light fittings, rugs, curtains, furniture, paintings, vases, cushions, and so much more. Emmy designed the fireplace and TV cabinetry and helped me visualise the finished product by producing coloured 3D drawings showing all the detail including finishes. Thanks to you Emmy, I love walking through my front door everyday as I love the spaces you helped create for my family and I. A huge thanks once again. Eli - Surrey Hills

I have been absolutely thrilled with the results I have achieved working with Emme designs. We have worked room by room to transform each space into an area where I love being (see below for 'before' and 'after' photos of the bathroom and hallway). Emmy has always taken into account my taste and budget to guide me in a direction which has achieved results beyond my expectation. She is always friendly, available and prompt and never pushed me to make a decision before I was ready. After seeing my results a number of my friends (and neighbours!) have now engaged Emmy on their own projects too.

We have been dealing with Emme Designs for over 8 years, Emmy is such a delight to work with, she is very friendly, professional and very talented. We make new furniture for Emmy off her own furniture designs. Emmys taste in furniture and fabrics are impeccable. We can honestly not recommend Emme Designs enough. Karen and Jeff K & J Upholstery....( Heidelberg West).

Emmy at emme designs was wonderful. She listened and understood my preferences; had creative ideas; remained mindful of my budget at all times, suggesting various options to keep costs down. Emmy has a lovely sense of style and has fabulous flair. Her manners and professionalism are second to none. She is prompt and I highly recommend her. Sarah Mt Waverley.

We contacted Emmy after meeting with other designers who weren’t quite what we were looking for. From our first meeting we were comfortable that Emmy was listening to us and had plenty of ideas to offer. We had a house that hadn’t been touched since it was built in the early 80s. It was in need of a major update, including some changes to internal walls to make more efficient use of space. We had a layout sketch and a list of ideas, but that was about it. After consultation, Emmy came to us with a presentation which included detailed plans, room concepts, finish and accessory ideas and material samples. This gave our project a tangible end-result which excited us. Emmy arranged a builder and tradesmen who were easy to work with and did a great job. She kept us regularly updated about the project, including the schedule and the work behind the scenes. Unforseen problems are inevitable in a project of this scale, and the few that arose were dealt with quickly and without fuss. The whole project took around 12 months as we chose to live in the house while the work went on around us. Thanks to the friendly and understanding builder together with Emmy’s enthusiastic encouragement, the time spent “living in a building site” seemed to pass quickly. The end result exceeded our expectations… the house is liveable, comfortable and a delight to look at. It is a year since the project was completed, and still every day I look around the house and smile. I have no hesitation in recommending Emmy for a major house update. John - Mitcham

I am a Real Estate professional that has referred many clients to Emmy for the specific purpose of advice on how to maximise their sale price by improving the presentation of their property. Every one of these clients has been impressed with her knowledge and practical advice(without overspending) to improve the end result, which is an outstanding final sale price.

We recently moved into a new office and had an idea of how to go about decorating it, but no clue where to start and what to take into consideration. We engaged emmy designs and she immediately came up with colour ideas that complemented our logo (displayed in the reception) and worked on our thoughts and came up with a variety of suggestions for us to select from. Now we have lovely prints on all walls and lovely upholstered chairs that blend in nicely with the unique shape of our reception area and upholstery to match our colour theme. This was all done within a quick timeline and within our budget . What a life saver Emmy is! We are so grateful for her services and could not more highly recommend her for any home / office or other commercial interior design and fitout.

Emme Designs has given my home a sophisticated and elegant look. Friendly and always available. Emmy understood from the beginning what I was after and with her experience and guidance we have achieved a stunning looking family home. Thank you Emmy.

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.
