“I have just completed a total renovation of one of my units at 14 Edgar Bennett Avenue, Noosa Heads and the Interior Designer / Project Manager I engaged to carry out the work was Revive Interior Design owned and managed by Karen Artis. This was not the first time i had engaged Karen to complete some design work for me so I had every confidence in her ability on this project being of a very high standard. I was not let down at all and the work relationship I had with Karen enabled this project to be completed on time and within budget. The project was estimated to take 10 weeks starting in the middle of March 2022 and completion date was scheduled for 1st June 2022. I was delighted when the contract was completed on the scheduled date. I cannot speak more highly of Karen and her work ethics. She is a good communicator, extremely honest and comes forward with lots of great ideas for one to consider. Karen also works well with all the trades that come on site. During the contracting period Karen would always update me with photographs of progress which was very helpful as I live in New Zealand. I would have no hesitation in engaging Karen for any work that I might have in the future and would certainly highly recommend her to any one considering engaging her for work that they might be undertaking Richard Grocott 0064 21 439665 grocott.oriental@xtra.co.nz 94 Sarsfield Street Herne Bay Auckland New Zealand 1011”

“We hired Renovation Angel to assist in our renovation including the design of our new kitchen. Monica listened to our thoughts and requirements and put together a fantastic concept resulting in a beautiful 'wow factor' kitchen. In addition Renovation Angel assisted us with our bathroom design, colour choices, tiles and lighting. We would have no hesitation in recommending Monica's services - don't do your renovation without her! Shelley and Ben, Sunshine Beach”

“I cannot recommend Tina highly enough, her consultation was phenomenal. Tina quickly grasped my vision and helped bring it to life with recommendations to transform our home. Tina understood the space and the desired functionality. With her exceptional understanding of lighting, colours, materials and finishes, our huge project became doable. Tina worked alongside me and supported my decisions. I look forward to working with Tina again. She truly can transform any home or project.”

“"WOW" is what I said when I saw the house furnished and styled. Liane chose a colour scheme and "Hampton"style which tied together the grey and blue in the carpet and kitchen. The combination of colours in the furnishings was superb, bringing a basic, neat house to a glamorous standard. Her suggestion of not having curtains effectively brought more light into the rooms. Even the outdoors became a stylish resort with chairs, towels and outdoor dining settings. Chocolates and drinks were on the table for prospective buyers to sit and enjoy and feel at home. Liane offered suggestions on how to present the garden to best effect. As the house sold for tens of thousands of dollars above what was expected, with the contract signed in 2 days, the styling obviously made the purchasers fall in love with the property. The cost of the styling was recouped many times over with the increased sales price. Liane has the ability to envision and create a stunning environment and be an absolute pleasure to work with. She works long hours with attention to detail and has high standards. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Liane and her team and am very thankful for what she has achieved for me.”

“Taking on an ugly duckling kitchen in an open plan modern Queenslander to give it some older character, is no easy vision to implement. When embarking on this project, we sought quotations from six companies to transform our low ceiling square-set modern kitchen into a French country gem that would complement our desire to give our home a more French country-inspired look. When we met with Alan at the Kitchen Shop, we understood from the outset that we were dealing with a professional with great experience in the industry. We also could see that we were communicating with someone who has a natural flair to visualise a client brief at the finest level of detail, and to work collaboratively with the client to refine and improve a design to best meet the aesthetic and functional aspects of a kitchen. In some ways, on paper, the design was pretty simple in that we desired to retain the the practicality of the layout of the existing kitchen and to minimise the cost of relocating services. However, increasing the ceiling height and wishing to include larger period cornices provided particular constraints that would naturally impact the overall design of cabinetry for maximum visual effect and to improve storage options. Alan understood this from the outset and provided informed guidance regularly through many meetings in his showroom, to arrive at an agreeable final design specification, including a full granite benchtop wrapping on three faces. His input to our colour and design choices for the following: two-pack cabinetry (including large glass-doored display cabinet), integrated sensor and down lighting, shelving design, 'hidden' doors, corner mechanisms, knobs and handles, to achieve the required look with the selected granite and appliances, was spot on and reflected his eye for design balance a well as maximised utility. One of the greatest challenges was designing a solution to our desire to have a 'period' arched cooktop canopy, mantle and integrated rangehood, with appropriate finer details in the surrounds that provided sufficient French country style and that would balance with other design elements of the kitchen. That involved him examining pictures from existing websites like Pinterest and other overseas websites that we had discovered, and to then patiently explain and inform a design that was visually balanced but that was also fire safety compliant, functional and which would provide the durability that was part of the longevity that we desired for this kitchen. Major projects like this, involving multiple trades (often working concurrently) requires tight scheduling and effective communication. In the main, this was excellent (and sometimes at short notice) but where issues did naturally arise (as is to be expected with such projects), they were were resolved extremely promptly, with patience and clarity, and with an ability to minimise worry for the client. We are extremely satisfied with the quality of the product and associated project management, fabrication, installation and after-sales services. We have been using the kitchen for over three months now and there has only been one post-implementation visit required, to correct only very minor bedding-in issues (eg door hinge adjustment etc), and one of those related matters to an electrical installation issue, for which the Kitchen Shop were not really responsible but which they remedied without question. We have no hesitation in recommending Alan, Nicky and all the team at Kitchen Shop for your kitchen or other joinery requirements, whether they be a new-build or a major renovation transformation like our own. We would willingly utilise Alan's guidance and expertise to assist us to implement our next vision. Note: Obviously the photos show there is still some finishing to be done to complete the final look.”

“When a tree fell on our house we had to replace our kitchen - so we wanted to take that opportunity to extend and completely update it. Even though we thought we knew what we wanted, we didn't have any idea of how this might work. I found Eileen Middleton Interiors on the web and we decided to consult her as to how we could implement our ideas. Eileen is a very straight forward person with a fantastic sense of colour and a keen perception of what we were trying to achieve. She produced a series of very detailed drawings incorporating all the key elements we wanted. This process evolved into the fantastic kitchen we now enjoy - full of light, space and all the features we could want. This process has been a great success.”
