Grainne Crowley Interior Design

Grainne has just completed a full refurb of my parents apartment. The end product is simply beautiful. She is an amazingly intuitive designer with exceptional taste. Grainne listens to her clients, takes on board their vision and exceeds expectation with her schemes. Her attention to detail was amazing and she worked very hard to deliver a scheme my parents loved by gently guiding them through their choices. I simply cannot recommend her highly enough. We are now working together on transforming my own home and I'm excited to see things coming together.

Gráinne is a very talented and dedicated Interior Designer who has exceptional interpretive skills and listening ability. She offered - and shared with me, her exquisite taste, knowledge and experienced know how - when guiding me towards realising my individual style interiors in my contemporary three story home in Montenotte. I am happy to recommend Gráinne for any interiors style or property style.

Myself and my husband worked with Grainne on a house renovation project in 2023. We bought a 70s house which needed to be fully renovated and Grainne’s help was invaluable. She helped us with kitchen layout, and choosing the cabinet fronts and counters. She also helped us to pick out all the tiles for different areas of the house: utility room, kitchen splashback and bathrooms, and advised which vanity units and rads would suit. She picked our front door, did the lighting plan and colour scheme for the whole house and also gave very good advice on which lights to choose. Overall, we are extremely happy with how the house turned out - I am convinced the result wouldn’t have been half as good without Grainne’s good eye and expertise. I would strongly recommend her to anyone embarking on a similar project.

I engaged with Grainne's design consultation services to reconsider my Sitting Room Layout, support in Paint colour selection for main Room and Media Unit. With Grainne;s guidance i selected a completely different colour palette to my usual tastes and was delighted with results, it complimented my furniture, room , lighting and result was superb. Phase 2 in the Summer will now include Hall Paint selection and carpets - looking forward to working with Grainne regularly in the future !

Grainne was approachable, understanding and inspirational in re-designing a new layout for our recently purchased home. Her ideas will make it more practical for family living and still warm and cosy. She has wonderful solutions to bring light into our darker areas and interesting ideas to make it unique and full of character whilst working within our budget. We are so excited to get started. Thank you Grainne

I contacted Grainne to help us with our kitchen as it was not functioning for us as a family. Grainne came up with really great suggestions that we would never have thought of. Stylish yet practical ideas for storage for all the children's toys!! Really great suggestions to change the layout of the kitchen to help it function and flow. Grainne listened to what we wanted for the kitchen and gently nudged us in the right direction to help achieve this. She is extremely professional, has a warm manner and an easy presence. I could not recommend Grainne highly enough. My only regret is we didn't consult with her sooner!!

I had a wonderful consultation with Grainne. I’m trying to figure out what to do with a number of rooms in my house and she had some great ideas that were different to anything I was considering. She also had good advice about colours and furniture arrangements. Grainne is very pleasant and easy to talk to. She left me with plenty to consider.

Grainne met with us and listened to our needs as a family and was able to advise and guide on how to create a beautiful room interior which is both welcoming and relaxing, while also meeting our practical needs. Her design advise was simple and elegant and included a balance of colours and textures. Delighted I had the opportunity to engage with Grainne in the design of this Living room would have no hesitation in recommending her to other.

I approached Gráinne to advise on a house makeover. Gráinne visited the house and understood exactly what I was looking for. She researched everything, provided a moodboard and advised on sourcing the products which made the whole experience a pleasure. We are delighted with the end result . We would highly recommend Gráinne for futute projects. Niamh

Period Arts & Crafts House Dublin I engaged Grainne to do a complete design revamp of my 5 bedroomed Arts & Crafts House in Rathmines Dublin. I cannot recommend highly enough the work that she did. I have used interior designers a number of times in the past. Grainne was by far the best interior designer I have engaged. Grainne worked really well with me, as her client. She met me to discuss my own (vague!) thoughts about my hopes for the final look and worked very hard to bring clarity to my own thinking. She then brought her own great sensibility to producing a look that would be reflective of the Edwardian heritage of the house. She never failed to bring great ideas and solutions to the inevitable challenges an older house like this brings. Grainne has mastered the difficult skill of bringing her own thoughts and ideas to a project while keeping me on board at all times. I’m really happy with the results, which can be viewed on Grainne’s website. In my opinion, the photos in the ‘’before and after’ section, understate if anything the extent to which her work improved my property. On the (always) important issue of costs, I felt that Grainne kept me posted fully and in a timely fashion on the project costs and her own fees. I received these finance updates on a regular and timely fashion and they gave great comfort that I received value for money right through and was always in control of the financial situation. Since the major job a few years ago, I have got Grainne back a number of times, including recently this year (2023) to work on other issues in my house. She has continued to deliver a totally dedicated and professional service on all projects, irrespective of scale.

Gráinne Crowley provided us with expert advice and guidance on the renovation and decoration of our Edwardian house. Her advice on the colour schemes, her attention to every detail of light, colour and fabrics, and to the historical context of the house, was hugely impressive. Her knowledge of housing design, her range of contacts and insights into interior design, opened up a range of possibilities for us. We particularly appreciated her willingness to listen to our needs, and preferences, and to follow up and provide us with a range of choices on colour schemes, furnishings and design. Gráinne's expert advice and guidance, was matched by incredible efficiency, skill and a positive, helpful disposition in all aspects of her work. She took away much of the stress of re-design and refurbishment of our house. I would highly recommend Gráinne as an interior designer.

Grainne is the reason that we fell in love with our new home. Grainne is professional, practical, talented, knowledgeable, patient and most of all, is a mind of information regarding furniture layout, carpets, lighting and the use of mirrors and artwork. She used colours that I wouldn't have picked in a million years but they work perfectly and everyone that walks through the front door has the same reaction, "Wow... your hall looks amazing". We're thrilled to bits with the expertise Grainne gave us and I'd have her back again in a heartbeat. Thank you, Anne
