INSIDESIGN

My kitchen, bathroom and laundry were at the end of their life and I was ready to replace them but I wanted to adjust the layout and move some internal walls, so I needed a lot of help with the planning and design. Sari and INSIDESIGN were recommended by a friend and I immediately liked the approach of testing out different configurations and scenarios in an online platform so I could visualise and ask questions before committing. I engaged INSIDESIGN both for planning/design and for project management. The combined approach reduced the stress of a major renovation as the team talked me through all stages and decisions. The builders and other tradespeople Sari recommended were all great and it was a huge bonus that INSIDESIGN did all the liaison and trouble-shooting on my behalf. With a 120-year old house we definitely found some issues that had not been anticipated. Sari came up with some practical solutions, and she and her team were extremely responsive and available when I needed them. She has a great eye for visual design and I appreciated her advice on colours, finishes and products. I am delighted with the overall results, which I simply would not have been able to achieve without INSIDESIGN's help. I would highly recommend INSIDESIGN for anyone in my situation, contemplating a more complex renovation.

I discovered Sari at Insidesign by chance, and so glad I did. We had been wanting to revamp our formal living rooms for years but really wanted the confidence to make the right choices for colours, cabinetry design, rugs, couches and overall look. Sari was able to recommend suppliers and products that I don’t think I would have been able to find on my own. I felt my ideas were listened to and absolutely reflected in the final result but have no doubt the result is much much better than I could have achieved on my own. Sari was very patient and understanding. I really liked the online app that meant I could go in and look at the virtual design and think over the options in my own time. I could also look at specific items and decide to purchase through the app. The end result is fantastic, really special. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Insidesign.

We had been thinking of renovating the top level / attic floor of our townhouse for sometime, and the need for a dedicated home office environment due to Covid19 promoted us into action. However neither of us of us being particularly astute in this area, we didn’t know where to start. We are both working and time poor, so we knew we needed to find someone who could provide for both the interior design requirements, while handling the project management side of things as well. In early 2021 we engaged Sari from INSIDESIGN who provided the perfect combination of these skill sets and was able to guide us through the complete process from initial concept / digital visualisation, to custom design of the floor to ceiling shelving and office space, right through to complete management of the various trades people required to realise the design vision. We are extremely happy with the end result & would not hesitate to recommend Sari to anyone who was looking to undertake a similar project.

Sari is incredibly talented with a brilliant eye for colour and style! She pushed us out of our comfort zone and was able to provide us not only with ideas aligned with our brief, but also thoughtful options beyond that. I would definitely not have the house I have if it wasn't for Sari!

Sari helped us turn our uninspiring playroom into a joint playroom and TV room for adults. Sari has a no-fuss, can do approach and took all the hassle out of it for us. She made it super easy, understood what we wanted (both as people but also for the room design) and just got it done all with a smile. And all in a difficult year. Sari dealt calmly with any issues as they arose and suggested design solutions we hadn't thought of. We love our new room and it's changed our life. The kids love it and we get somewhere to relax too.

Sari redesigned my daughter’s bedroom. It was a tight space in a terrace house. Sari did an amazing job of bringing my daughter’s vision for her room to life whilst maximizing the use of the space, thinking about the details and bringing a personal touch to the room. I would definitely recommend her. We are so happy with her work that we will be using her again.

Patient and flexible and easy to work. her ideas showed Sari listened to what we were looking for and the wall unit design was exactly what we wanted. we now have a living room! before it was just a mix of furniture.

In 2019 I engaged Sari to design a ‘parent only’ room in a home otherwise over ran by children. My brief was somewhat ‘erratic’; styles which appealed to me were many and varied, liking and disliking designs from within the same genre. I felt I was not an ‘easy’ client. None of this seemed to faze Sari. Being led through her design process – which was brimming with creativity, enthusiasm and originality, was an absolute joy. Always engaging, my interactions with Sari during this phase were collaborative, constructive and above all great fun. Sari was extremely patient during my procrastination and occasional change of mind. Once we got into the execution of design, Sari used artisans to build furniture and highly skilled and careful tradesmens to achieve the final result – one which I am delighted with. I would not hesitate to recommend Sari and her team to design and implement your next interior project at home James – Mosman, NSW

Engaging Sari and Insidesign to create the perfect home office/guest room was the best thing I could have done. Sari immediately understood what I was after and was able to translate that into a design and a result that exceeded my expectations. Sari coordinated & managed the whole project while keeping me involved and adapting to my preferences. Every single person involved throughout the project delivered top quality results. For me, the best thing about working with Sari was her ability to create something completely tailored to my needs. I look forward to working with Sari again in the future!

What a great job Sari did for us, very professional. Her designs for our new Bathroom and Laundry were beyond our expectation. Her project management of the job was great and we received through updates on the progress of the work throughout. 5 Stars

A pleasure to work with, got our tastes quickly, professional, always had a solution, gave options within budget high quality

I engaged the services of Sari from INSIDESIGN to help me with the interior design of my new apartment. I’d collected a number of pieces while living in Asia which I enjoy having in my space but didn’t want an Asian styled apartment. So Sari helped me come up with an “East meets West” concept and then worked on coming up with ideas for the living spaces. For the master bedroom, I had a concept of a feature wall but that was about it. So again Sari helped integrate this into a full design for the bedroom. The software program she used gave a fantastic insight into how various design options and colours would work and being in an apartment where space was fixed, made sure the everything we selected fitted well while maintaining the open and bright feel of the apartment (the small balcony was particularly challenging). I do struggle with the “little pieces” so I found Sari’s assistance with this part of the project invaluable too. She even manage to put a bit of fun into the place with a drinks cart. There were so many elements to bring a design together and with Sari’s expertise (and patience), it managed to all come together into a comfortable living space that I enjoy coming home to and entertaining friends in. From the texture of the grass woven wallpaper in the dining room, the softening effect of the sheer curtains in the dining room and guest room, and down to the new pedant lighting, all these elements bring something interesting to the rooms. I would highly recommend Sari for anyone that wants assistance from the early concept stage to pulling all the design elements together. The process was interactive so I also found I learnt a lot as well from working with Sari. A beautiful outcome and a learning process along the way, thoroughly enjoyed this project and working with Sari.
