Space Planning in Dublin, Co. Dublin

“We are so delighted with our understair storage. It is much better than we anticipated in terms os storage space and looks. The whole process was carried out very professionally by all members of the Clever Closet team. I would recommend them completely”

“Eva provides a unique and really useful service. In 2 hours she gave me scaled drawings of 4 options to change the layout of the kitchen/living/dining space. As an architect she understands light and space plus the practical implications of changes.I am really excited now about taking it forward with Eva.”

“New Years Day 2017. The excitement builds for the year ahead. Planning is lodged, Papers are out for tender. Last year for new years eve just spent in our current house. Next year it will be so different. Admittedly we did not hire Josh initially and it was down to two architects and after a lot of agonising we initially ended up going with a very good architect from my home town who was the son of a friend of my mother. Due to location issues it was mutually agreed to terminate that engagement after a short while. With tails between the legs back to Josh and Vivienne in The House Architects we went. They were very professional and picked up the pieces, give us a discount to reflect some work already done and carried on. Back ground checks made to other satisfied customers were all glowing. This didn't surprise us as Josh was very responsive and informative when we were deciding between the two and very gracious when we went back with the tails between our legs. If we could turn back time, we would have engaged Josh and his firm from the start. We now enter the next stage which is tendering and construction and all the stresses that that will bring. Based on the feedback received for Josh, we are very comfortable that Josh and Vivienne will safely guide us through this final stretch of the journey. Whatever architect you choose I suggest based on our experience that they are relatively local to where you are based. So if in Dublin, use a Dublin architect etc. Choose Josh for your engagement and make it a new years resolution that you keep. This time next year you will wish you started today ! Happy new year”

“I cannot recommend Ventura Design highly enough. They have great style, wonderful products, brilliant service and are a super company to deal with. We were looking for a new sofa and armchairs and Arlene and the team were great at suggesting the right style, colour and fabric to suit our living room. The sofa and chairs were tailor-made to our specifications and we are delighted with the results – they look stunning, are great quality and, most importantly, they are super-comfortable. We’re planning a refurbishment in the future and will definitely return to Ventura to avail of their interior design service.”

“We hired Style my Room to complete a design for our kitchen/dining and living rooms. We had a lot of space however our rooms were badly laid out and didn't fit the needs of our family. We met with Jackie Carton and she got a feel for what we wanted to achieve within the space available and she came back with 2 great options. She did a reconfiguration of 2 rooms which was much more appropriate to our needs and a kitchen refit. We also got her to suggest an interior design for us and we were extremely happy with this. She listened to what we wanted and was very respectful of our budget. She came back with mood boards with designs for each room on them and after we took them in and made some small changes (although I would totally trust her design judgement) we were very happy with the outcome. I must say the overall results have been fantastic and we are very happy with the overall finished product. The new room configuration has really maximised the space we have and is so much more appropriate to our needs. and our growing family. The design is modern and fresh but it is very much in keeping with what we wanted. We are thrilled with the results and would highly recommend Jackie (and the builders Timber Creations she recommends and works with) and her work. Thanks Jackie!”

“Angela was very professional to work with. Angela talk to my husband and myself and took our surroundings and suggestions into consideration when planning room colour's, blinds and furniture which she sourced. The end result is a home that is welcoming, comfortable and practical. We love our new home. Thanks Angela at Conbu Interior Design.”

“David provided plans for our kitchen extension and attic conversion in an Edwardian semi-detached house in Glasnevin. It took us a long time to make up our minds about certain features of the design and we tore up the plans completely at one stage and started again from scratch. David was very patient throughout the 18-month planning process. It didn't end there. David helped us enormously through the tender stage, with selecting the builder and negotiations with the builder. No detail was too small to be included and there were many many revisions. He tracked the builder's progress throughout the job with regular visits to the site and especially through critical phases such as fitting the windows. He kept the builder on-track for us. He recommended good auxiliary contractors, painters, suppliers, etc And finally his price was exceptionally reasonable. I have work colleagues who had similar projects done and their architects were twice as expensive and nowhere near as helpful and professional. Highly recommended.”

“Optimise Design combines wonderful, innovative and beautiful design, with top notch service. At every stage I was advised on how to optimise my budget and make the best use of my space. I got more than I hoped for - and I love my house now. It's my favourite place to be.”

“We had the pleasure of hiring Hamilton Interior to renovate our kitchen area a few years ago, we still love the space and are thrilled we got their expertise. We took down a wall and opened 3 rooms into one as an open plan living space,”

“Joe Fallon provided us with an exemplary building maximizing our relatively small site in Terenure. The project required creative solutions to provide my wife and I with a dual purpose family home and public health clinic. Everything was delivered on time and on budget thanks to the professional guidance of our designer Michael O'Brien, leading us through design, planning, tendering and construction phases. We are in our building a year now and we still are discovering new facets of the design which were carefully planned out in advance. Particularly during the Covid-19 lockdown we appreciate more than ever the organization of the family spaces and most importantly the multiple connections with the gardens and outdoors. I highly recommend Joe Fallon Design if you seek a modern, comfortable, intelligent and well constructed architecture.”
