My Bespoke Room
Interior Designers in Swanley, Kent, UK
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars4 August 2014
“I recently moved to a brand new apartment from a traditional Victorian terraced house after 30 years and so I wanted something totally new and different to what I had lived with previously. My taste is not very modern at all and so I was wanting someone who could help me create a really stylish space that would still suit my tastes (quite eclectic I must add!) In addition it is a really small and compact flat and so I needed some clever thinking on how and what to use, where. I decided to try My Bespoke Room as there service felt very affordable (only £75 per room) and they agreed to come and do an on site visit for a very small additional charge. Using them meant that I could still be in control of what was ordered and my budget, as they just gave me all the tools which saved me loads of time. I was so excited to see it transform that I kept updating them and I really felt they were as excited as I was and really into the project too which was really nice! I got on really well with both of them straight away and was really impressed with what they came up with. It is such a slick an easy service and their virtual moodboard is really cool. It covered everything from paint colours, wallpaper to furniture and finishing touches, including coat hooks and an umbrella stand! This was money well spent and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for some help in designing and furnishing their homes. Well done girls!!!”
House by Mia
Interior Designers in Swanley, Kent, UK
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars18 February 2020
“Mia listened to what I wanted and elevated my ideas to make them so much better. When I have attempted interior design myself I was left with compromises where I had run out of time or inspiration. Living with those compromises, with them looking back at you every day, can get wearing. With the work Mia has done, nothing is a compromise- everything is beautiful. Sleeping in a room that is a work of art makes everything seem better. I liked the fact that I still had the ultimate choice but the choices I was making were ring fenced for me, making sure I was picking pieces/ wallpaper/ paints that would work together perfectly. This approach saved me so much time and no more buyers remorse! Working with Mia was a pleasure, fun and so satisfying to see nice rooms turn into stunning places you want to be.”

“Malaika's work is impressive on so many levels. Firstly, her great attention to detail. She 'interviewed me' many times to get a holistic picture of what I liked, how I wanted to use the space, what was important to me and what had been my barriers etc. Her design considered floor to ceiling, corner to corner, taking the time to patiently explain to me how colours and textures work together; how natural and artificial light can be used; But giving me choice and control over all aspects. Then how she presented her ideas, drawings to exact scale, textured samples and costs was really professional and reassuring. Photos on a website can only capture some of the perfect colours and finishing touches. But when you actually sit and use the spaces, only then can you truly get a sensory experience. E.g. the richness of the textures that you can't resist touching; how everywhere you look, you see something beautiful to appreciate and the clever design of effective storage spaces without compromising on the beauty. The quality of materials used such as the cushion covers, seat covers, curtains all beautifully stitched and made to measure is gorgeous. One can't deny her talent! Malaika showed great sensitivity and respect for my emotional needs, my culture and identity, my budget etc. Nothing was too much! I could ask questions freely, she adapted her design many times for my satisfaction and oversaw the transformation from beginning to end. Words can't express how delighted and grateful I am to Malaika for designing and project managing every step of this beautiful rennovation. I live in a safe and a beautiful space that finally fulfills it's potential. It is a dream come true.”

“Sacha helped us with a big design/renovation project this year, when we extended our house. We met her when we bought a lovely Stag chandelier, and she then helped us on a bigger design project. She worked closely with us to come up with brilliant ideas that took the sort of things we liked and translated them into a unique design that was just to our taste - but we could never have actually made happen ourselves! She also took the stress out of what should have been a nightmare project, as my husband and I both work and we have small children. Would recommend highly for Interior projects, or Chandeliers.”
House of Bricks Design

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars20 September 2023
“We had the pleasure of working with Emma as our interior designer and project manager of our house refurbishment in Clapham. Our project took about a year long and in a nutshell, we could not have done it without Emma. During this whole period, Emma had gone above and beyond her job scope, she did countless site visits on our behalf and made the whole refurbishment process stress-free. She is passionate about our house, showing attention to detail and design, supported us on bespoke kitchen/wardrobes and was also good at problem-solving with our builders. Our dream house is looking so amazing with the help of Emma and we are very happy with the results. We would highly recommend her to anyone without a question.”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars26 March 2024
“I was recommended Julia by a friend. I had just moved into a new house and had very little furniture or idea of how best to style my new rooms. Julia had great ideas, worked within our budget and the rooms have come together beautifully. Really happy and will definitely use again in the future.”

“Zoe Willis Design took a tired, uninteresting flat and transformed it into a beautiful and artistic space. Zoe’s amazing eye for detail, stylish aesthetic, and innovative ideas helped realise my dream of creating my perfect home. She is a great girl doing great things and the whole experience was fantastic and fun. Sent from my iPhone”
dillon&beth

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars17 February 2024
“We had a very small child's bedroom which had an awkward layout with never enough storage, which meant our daughter didn't really like being in it. She really needed something more grown up and has lots of lego, books and soft animals, which needed storing! Beverley from dillon&beth was incredibly enthusiastic and was great to work with as she was determined to create a room that our daughter loved being in. We are delighted with the end result and the room feels totally transformed despite Beverley working to keep as much of the original room and layout as possible in order to minimise costs. Our daughter loves her new room and loves being in it now.”

Interior Designer FAQs

Interior design costs can range from £50 to £200 per hour, or a fixed fee between 5% and 20% of the total project cost.

What’s the difference between interior designers and interior decorators?


These two closely related professions are often mistaken for the same thing, however, there are some significant differences to be aware of before deciding which to hire. An interior designer, sometimes known as an interior architect, can run full renovation and structural design projects, and will use specialised knowledge of interior architecture, construction systems and components, building regulations, materials and furnishings to arrive at your dream home design. Interior design companies are able to plan spaces and room functions down to the last detail, and can help design and renovate interiors, from initial planning phases to placing the last decorative accessory. A decorator on the other hand will typically be involved only in the aesthetic layer, the “look and feel” of a space, and won’t be able to assist in renovations that require structural work. Interior decorators normally come on board after all structural work is complete. So choose your Swanley, Kent, UK interior designer according to the type of work you need.

Why should I hire an interior designer in Swanley, Kent, UK?


They say life is what happens while you’re busy making plans. Some of us are just too preoccupied with a career and/or family to think about colour schemes, wallpaper, flooring and lighting. A professional interior designer in Swanley, Kent, UK can save you bags of time, stress and months, if not years, of living in a half-finished home. It’s their job to stay on top of the latest trends and to have contacts and visual references coming out of their ears. Interior designers can also save you money, by sourcing products via trade contacts or offering affordable alternatives to blowout iconic designs.

How do I choose the right Swanley, Kent, UK interior designer for my home?


Good design and visual inspiration are all around us. Start by searching for interior architects and interior designers in Swanley, Kent, UK on Houzz. Keep a lookout for images of rooms and features that you really like and save them to your Ideabooks to begin to develop an understanding of your own style and taste. If you notice that photos from the same interior design companies are popping up regularly then that is a good hint that they could be your perfect design match. You can feel most confident if you hire an interior designer or interior design company in Swanley, Kent, UK that has completed work similar to the look and feel that you desire, whether that is a mix-and-match lounge oozing mid-century modern style, a pale and interesting minimalist bedroom with shots of colour, or a beautiful space inspired by Scandinavian design.

You may want to check if your designer is a member of the Society of British and International Design (SBID) or The British Institute of Interior Design (BIID). Both are a benchmark of quality and reliability. And check if your interior designers can offer you the right type of service – some companies are design only, while others can oversee the whole project. If it is the latter that you seek, make sure any sub-contractors used are fully accredited and it is clear who they are supposed to report to. If late alterations are made to the plan, the contractor should receive a change order, thus minimising the risk of a dispute about what was and wasn’t agreed to after the start date.
