When I come home from work these days and open the front door I just can’t help smiling. The house looks so stunning.

Southover Design takes interior design right back to basics. From the beginning, I encourage you to look at the essential structure of your property before considering styles, colour schemes and furnishings. Whether your tastes are traditional or modern or somewhere in between, I aim to work in partnership with you to develop a living space designed for your particular lifestyle.  My task is to interpret your ideas, and guide you so that the finished interior design of a room is exactly as you would want it to be had you known what  you wanted!

Before starting on any interior design project, I like to get to know you and your family’s likes, dislikes, and even whether you have any pets or pastimes. I ask for your views on your home and the aspirations you have for its future. Above all, I look very closely at your house as it appears right now.

Do the room layouts work? Could space be maximised by moving a particular wall?

I will consider this together with the usual interior design aspects of colour, lighting, soft furnishings, flooring and furniture. Perhaps, most importantly of all, I will discuss your budget openly and honestly, right from the start.

It is not my job to impose my taste on you. I firmly believe that your home should be a reflection of you, your personality and your lifestyle. Not something copied from the pages of a glossy interior design magazine.

And finally.. not all interior designers waft around in leather trousers all day calling everyone ‘darling’. I am a down-to- earth professional committed to exceeding the expectations of my clients.

So why not contact me and find out for yourself.
