Thoughtful design; helped us achieve our (challenging) aspirations in what are compact bathrooms.

Our first project with Sandra was the complete renovation of an old bathroom and two tired bedrooms in our beautiful Queenslander. Sandra carefully noted our requirements and produced a stunning yet practical result, modern, yet enhancing the Queenslander charm. Our second project was the colour selection for the external and internal painting of our home. Again the result was magnificent. Sandra always listened carefully and incorporated our wishes. Her work was delivered on schedule. We have been completely satisfied with Sandra's professionalism and design talent, and will not hesitate to consult her again.

We needed to modernise our home and engaged the design services of Sandra from New Leaf Design Studios. Sandra was an absolute dream to work with; always finding the right solutions to fit our lifestyle needs, our tastes and our budget. The end result is a living space and kitchen that we love to be in. It punches plenty of "wow" factor to first time visitors. Without doubt, the design services of New Leaf Design Studios have significantly increased the value of our property.

Comment from New Leaf Design Studios:

Hi Suzie
Thanks for your review - it means a lot to me that you love your new kitchen and living area and that the end result brings you lifestyle improvements as well as adding to the value of your home. It was a pleasure working with you! Let me know when you're ready to start on the outdoor living and pool area!!
Kindest regards,
Sandra Dara

I first met with Sandra mid-2015 with a view to refurbishing our home which was built in 1998. I found her very easy to get along with and she took note of my likes and dislikes. The main bathroom was completely renovated in October 2015 and in April 2016 a new kitchen was installed, both beautifully designed by Sandra. Following this Sandra had some great ideas to modernise other rooms in the house, including lounge, dining, sitting room and main bedroom. New flooring, paintwork, furniture and soft furnishings have made the home a much brighter space to live in. Sandra was always very willing to search for the right piece of furniture and/or fabrics to stay within my budget but still create a designer look. I would not have been able to do this renovation without Sandra's expertise and knowledge in design to call on. My husband and I feel that the house has been brought back to life and love how the house now looks and feels. The money spent on renovating has certainly added substantially to the value of our home. Thank you Sandra for all your work. We'll definitely be recommending you to others who are wanting to transform their homes too! Barb Green, McDowall

Sandra was did a great job in modernising and redefining my Apartment - turning it from drab to a refreshing exciting home. The overall colour scheme was harmonised, and the specific items of furniture that Sandra was able to source complete the theme. I have would fully recommend to Sandra to my friends to help create their particular 'space'.

We engaged New Leaf Design after receiving design estimates from three company's. Sandra gave us the best design option and then managed the project from start to finish. The end result was a complete redesign of our kitchen and laundry which has a definate Whow! factor and is comented on by all our friends and visitors.

I referred my Art Styling client to Sandra Dara at New Leaf Design Studios with a view to taking the decor tips I gave my client and bringing them to reality. Not only did she take my lead, but exceeded my expectations in a way so perfect for this client and his brief that we were completely and utterly satisfied... and gave her more work! Thank you Sandra. If you are looking for an interior designer who can express your personality and design to your lifestyle, look no further than Sandra Dara, New Leaf Design Studios.

Renowned Furniture

I had the pleasure of working with Sandra of New leaf designs earlier this year. We found Sandra to be well organised and highly professional. Sandra's eye for detail and keen sense of quality was a fresh alternative among some of the rush work being done today. (which we often turn down) and I would have no hesitation in working alongside New Leaf Design again.

Sandra was very professional about the job at hand and worked very well with the customers keeping them always informed on where the relevant trades people were up to. We supplied a two pack laundry for Sandra's clients and found she was very easy to liaise with and made our job easy. Looking forward to working with her again.

My home started out dull, boring and cluttered, after Sandra worked her magic my home is now warm, gorgeous and decluttered. Sandra worked very hard, good communication and her work was great.

Sandra did a wonderful job of guiding us in the remodelling of our built-in wardrobes. Her friendly manner immediately put us at ease and she was able to suggest creative ideas for utilising our limited bedroom space, bringing a fresh perspective to our interior design.

Sandra used her expertise in Kitchen Design to functionalise and transform my existing kitchen through a complete renovation and upgrade. All of this was accomplished with minimal disruption and downtime , which was really appreciated by the family. The end results far surpassed the brief I had given her.
