The Little Design Corner

THe Little Design Corner worked really well with our builder and architect to deliver a style we are exceptionally happy with. The attention to detail and little touches have made it a fantastic house to live in and we couldn’t be happier. Would highly recommend this company to anyone who has no idea about styling and how it all comes together.

Clare transformed our living space into a stylish and functional space for our family needs. She was friendly, really easy to work with, listened to our needs and accommodated our budget. We would highly recommend Clare to anyone looking for an interior designer.

Clare came to our apartment for a design consultation. I would highly recommend the service. She has a keen eye for the stylish and practical home. She went room to room and spoke about the things she would change. She help us prioritise the improvements in our home layout and decor and had excellent advice on where to head for products.

When I first find Clare’s website (The Little Design Corner) and looked at her past projects, we knew she is the ONE we needed for our home renovation and styling (full house). Now the reno has fully completed, we are so happy that we choose Clare to be our home interior designer!!! She is absolutely amazing on the job. She exactly know we taste! From our very first meeting she was extremely professional and thoughtful during the whole process. To be honest Clare made myself and my husband think about exactly what the finished product we were dreaming on and what was possible with our limited budget. Definitely recommend Clare and The Little Design Corner to our family and friends!! It was great time to deal with her. We cannot thanks her enough!!

We purchased a family home in Oct of last year. We faced a couple of challenges - we purchased interstate (WA) and needed to move state and "in" asap - the bones were good, but the interior was completely not us in terms of style and lifestyle (the word tissy comes to mind) - we only saw the house once before we purchased - our move and purchase were a little unplanned leaving us with limited funds for enhancements. We initially met with Clare for a 1.5 hour consultation - she had reviewed our plans and pics & had us fill in a questionnaire - which was actually pretty helpful in organising our own thoughts. We left our initial meeting with a plan for immediate enhancements that would fit into a longer term plan for further enhancements. All up we spent less than 40K which included the following: - replacing 6 different floor coverings with 2 (carpet & boards) - a new coat of interior paint - one colour (the nicest white you ever saw) - replacing yellow, mocha, beige, red, chocolate and some sort of pink suede that looked like you should vacuum it.... - new window coverings (white shutters & simple blinds) to replace the very formal and dated (think Scarlett O'Hara on every window) curtains - new lighting to replace chandeliers in all rooms We are beyond happy with the impact - Clare was spot on with every recommendation and knew how to achieve the result we were after in our budget and time restraint...she is a delight to work with - fun, lacking BS and super efficient. We have just had a follow up session to pick a colour scheme for the exterior and get some advice on further enhancements to maximise resale value - again worth every cent. My hubby & I were recently looking for a cushion for the chair in our entry and he said..."do you think Clare would like that"....for someone who didn't want to take an hour out of work for our initial consult I think this is probably the best endorsement I can give ; )

Working with Claire was a delight. I was super nervous about working with an interior designer, firstly because I had no real idea what I wanted and also I was conscious that I needed to stick to a budget. Claire made it all so simple and easy and the whole family is absolutely delighted with the result. She was extremely helpful and very conscious of supporting me to become more confident with my choices. If you are considering using a designer I would highly recommend Claire as a fantastic way to maximise the investment you are making in your home.

The Little Design Corner Consultation was given to us as a gift (Housewarming gift) and we thought awesome great timing! I liked how TLDC asked us for our input and the homework provided. During our consultation we received some great ideas and recommendations along with a impressive supplier list which we are still using! Couldn't be happier thank you Clare!

We spoke to several people before deciding on The Little Design Corner. Apart from liking the designs from other projects they had completed, which were a good fit with our own ideas for our home, we found Clare to be pragmatic in her design suggestions - understanding of how our home needed to function as well as how we wanted it to look and function. I think that it helps that she is a busy working Mum herself! Working with any professional, I would suggest getting a good understanding of exactly what will happen when to avoid any confusion - especially if it is your first "rodeo". No Pics yet (well, only some dodgy "before"), hope to share when we're done!

I had recently bought a 30sqm studio and was concerned about fitting everything into it without making it look cramped. I wanted to do a full renovation and was pretty clueless about where to start. With Clare's help I managed to fit in a washing machine, pantry, built-ins, and a bench seat with storage for my extensive shoe collection. She picked a colour scheme that feels fresh and modern but also homely. She helped me with every step of the way making it a smooth process for an indecisive person like me. I've had so many compliments on my home and it's all thanks to The Little Design Corner. Worth every penny!

Clare really help me transform certain areas of my house during our renovation. I was reluctant to pay for an interior designer but it was well worth the money. Clare was excellent to work with and was alway so quick to get back to me. I really enjoyed the whole process and most importantly I'm so happy with my house.

WOW! The Little Design Corner delivers! We now have the most amazingly warm and inviting office reception in North Sydney thanks to TLDC. Clare was a pleasure to work with and brought colour and life to a very boring office space. Her ideas and execution were spot on and we now have a space that everyone in our building covets! I would highly recommend Clare for her professionalism, wonderful style and cost consciousness! Thank you.

After completing our renovation I was looking for an Interior designer that could help me with the layout of furniture and styling. We had artwork that dominated the living room and existing furniture that needed to be worked into the design. I was looking for a way to achieve a contemporary minimalist layout that suited family living, whilst blending the period features in the front of the home with the contemporary renovation at the rear. We packed so much into the one and a half hour design consultation session. Clare was extremely professional, accomodating and had a fantastic ability to interpret my needs, showing me suggested lights, cushions, rugs and additional furniture pieces. Her knowledge was immense, along with an ability to blend high value pieces with cheaper alternatives. During the session, Clare moved the lounge around and changed the location of the artwork which made an instant impact on the feel of the room. When she left I felt so excited by the new style of my home. I was very pleased with the service and would highly recommend Clare from The Little Design Corner!
