Interior Design Portfolio

Stephen helped me with a full refurbishment of my flat and I absolutely cannot recommend him enough.

From start to finish Stephen was an absolute lifesaver:
– Keeping a large and complex project running smoothly (and on budget)
– Had meticulous attention to detail – everything was perfect
– Thinking outside the box and translating my often vague ideas into stunning reality
– Finding beautiful finishes and fittings that I couldn’t even have thought of
– Managing various contractors and suppliers

And he did it all with a smile and positive attitude even when things weren’t going according to plan – always found a solution!

Thank you Stephen!

I cannot recommend Stephen highly enough. He combines a rare combination of expertise and experience and he was a true partner in the project to renovate and remodel my London townhouse.

He has a great eye and flair for imagining how the whole will come together harmoniously while being meticulous about every last detail. Stephen followed the project from inception to completion. At each stage he listened intently, took on board, interpreted and improved my ideas, adding his own and then presented a range of realistic options for how to proceed.

At each stage he made me aware of the costs and was conscious of the overall budget. It was a pleasure to work with Stephen. The results were splendid and I am delighted with my new home.

We worked with Stephen on a project to refurbish our flat in London.

Stephen is very professional and delivers to a high standard. He is knowledgeable about his trade and knows how to get the project delivered to budget and on time.

We are delighted with the final result.

From the start we found Stephen to be very astute in perceiving the kind of living space we were looking for, and very adept at discussing and developing ideas.

Overall, we were most impressed by his tremendously infectious enthusiasm during the entire process, his professionalism and acute attention to detail. Also notable was the very pro-active relationship he developed with our building contractor which went a long way to ensuring the construction phase ran as smoothly as could be expected. We have no qualms at all in recommending Stephen.

Most importantly of all of course, we absolutely love our new home.

Having worked on a couple of jobs in London with Residence Interior Design over the past couple of years, I’d highly recommend Stephen and his team for any interior design project you may have in mind.

The designs are well thought out, accurate and detailed, which is a great help during construction.

Stephen is a pleasure to deal with and his positive attitude and professionalism help get the job done.

I commissioned Residence Interior Design to redesign our 2 bedroom property in London Bankside into a 4 bedroom house with the view not only to obtain planning permission but to fundamentally change the way the property functioned and flowed.

I am happy to say we gained planning permission and was thrilled with Stephen’s interior design ideas for our family home and can thoroughly recommend him to any future client.

His passion and enthusiasm for even the smallest detail was a delight to witness.

I have worked with Stephen at Residence Interior Design for a number of years now and the results have always been impressive.

Stephen is always so pleasant to deal with too.

Stephen possesses originality and conviction but is also very willing to listen and explain his ideas.

His attention to detail and commitment to high quality are also obvious but (unusually) he wants rooms that are practical and work within a budget – he doesn’t pitch the unrealistic.

I’d recommend Stephen without hesitation.

Stephen was hugely professional, came up with clever and innovative suggestions and provided detailed drawings and plans throughout.

I particularly liked the way in which he listened to my particular (and rather unusual) brief and really took it on board.

It has been an absolute pleasure dealing with you on this alteration which due to your good management has run very smoothly.

Stephen has helped to transform our home and we would have no hesitation in recommending him.

He was very creative, whilst always taking account of our particular taste and style rather than impose his own solutions.

Stephen was always very professional and his presentation skills are most impressive. He has a pleasant, easy-going manner which not only put us at ease but also enabled him to have an excellent relationship with the various suppliers and contractors.

The service from Residence was excellent, from the first meeting to last. The brief was met and we’re delighted with what we have. Stephen combines a friendly approach with expertise and considerable effort to help you through the process.

He is a pleasure to work with, and you feel supported throughout. There can be some difficult moments when undertaking a large refurbishment, and Stephen works hard to make sure that you are best prepared to deal with the issues when they arrive. He is an expert planner, and we have learnt lots from working with him.

Stephen combines a creative sense of design with a professional’s understanding of what is sensible. This combination results in very attractive and importantly very liveable space.

He is easy to work with and listens carefully to the full set of requirements — including budgetary.

I would immediately reach for Stephen again for any renovations or input to new build.

Stephen is a very sympathetic and unpretentious designer (a rarity!) with real creative flair and attention to detail. He pulled together the sketch ideas and produced a very detailed layout and specification that was easy for the main contractor and the many sub contractors to follow.

We had spoken to many Interior Designers, but most seemed to have a particular ‘style’ that they followed. We had very strong views about what we wanted to achieve and Stephen responded flexibly to our requirements. He is a pleasure to work with and we would certainly use his services again.

Stephen listened intently to my ideas and worked to turn them into reality.

Equally importantly, he kept me realistic on what I could achieve for my budget.

I am delighted with what he helped me achieve.

I would have no reservation in recommending Stephen to friends.

He helped me to develop the design plans in a way that reflected the direction I wanted to go in while being practical and conscious about cost, lead times, and availability of materials. He coordinated suppliers and worked closely with contractors to make sure things were done on time and properly.

Stephen made all of the difference to turn what could have been unpleasant into into an experience that was both smooth and, dare I say it, enjoyable.

Stephen assisted us with the interior design of aspects of a contemporary new build project.  In particular, he helped us to better visualise how spaces might be used and suggested some feature aspects for the house.

I would not hesitate to recommend him.

Stephen’s help was invaluable. He enabled us to rethink areas of space planning and with subtle adjustments to the architects original layout he turned our plans into something really special.

Stephen’s talent, practical knowledge and experience made the difference in everything he helped us with: from space planning and design to technical advice and product selection. I have no doubts at all in recommending his services.
