At Home by Design

Would highly recommend Helen and At Home by Design. Lovely friendly approach and some beautiful creative ideas

I so value and appreciate all that Helen has done and the way she has done it in leading, guiding, and supporting me in refurbishing my home. She has a real skill for taking me on a journey where I had a view on the look, feel and impact I wanted with my home however I didn't know how to create it. Helen’s art, creativity, experience and intuition plus careful listening to my concerns whilst articulating ideas and possibilities including is impressive. Applying all this whilst being flexible all the way through in project managing everything and ultimately creating my home which I love. The result is fantastic and I am so deeply grateful. She has done an amazing job.

Bringing some colour into our house was brought to reality with Helen’s design experience and eye for detail. We are delighted with the result!

I can’t recommend Helen highly enough. She decorated some rooms for me to let out which turned out even better than I’d expected. The rooms were rented within a few days of completion and well above market rate for the area which is a testament to her talent.Whether it’s a big no-expenses-spared renovation job or a relatively modest revamp of some tired or dated space within the home, you can count on Helen to deliver. She’s meticulous and thinks about every detail from both an aesthetic as well as a practical perspective.I am very pleased with the work that Helen did and I will be commissioning her again soon for our next home decoration project.

We are delighted with Helen’s work for us on our family home. Helen has the design skills and imagination that we lack and has guided us gently through to successful and very pleasing upgrade of our home. Helen made a lot of suggestions which challenged our expectations but never pressed us to take on change we weren’t sure of. Instead, Helen patiently worked with us to find solutions that are right for us. There are many features of the project that are totally from Helen’s inspiration. Our lounge was previously dull and austere. It is now warm and gently colourful and is our favourite room in the house. Thank you Helen!

Helen is really easy to talk to. She listens and helped to clarify my thoughts. I knew what I didn't like, but couldn't articulate what I did. I wasn't sure how to decorate my home or what colours to put together. She put together a fantastic scheme, that included everything that was really important to me. My home feels like home, rather than a copy of a catalogue. It's beautiful. I would really recommend Helen, especially if you're looking for an interior designer in Surrey, Hampshire or Sussex.

I loved working with Helen to redesign my home office. Now it's a place I look forward to spending the day in, rather than something I feel I should apologise for!

Helen is very well experienced and as such has a lot of ideas to bring to the table. She was able to assist us with doing a “revamp” of our children’s bedrooms, both with sourcing the furniture (after design phase) and also advice on other matters like decorating.She offers a few different packages, from more basic to top end, to suit your budget.She has very good customer service and is very pleasant to work with.I would definitely use her again in the future.

Having Helen’s input into the design of a challenging and tricky space was beyond valuable and she totally understood what I was looking to achieve even though I wasn’t sure myself. I was afraid of making the wrong decision and so having a different perspective on the space was extremely reassuring. All the design options that Helen presented were stunning and after careful consideration I am beyond happy with the creative that we settled on. The colours are bold and the design is quirky which suits the style of our old house perfectly.Helen was the perfect combination of professional, warm, creative and patient. She also went above and beyond with her beautiful sketches of the space to allow us to visualise what it would look like. If you’re stuck in a colour rut or are finding it difficult to make a colour decision, I would definitely recommend having a chat. I never thought I would be able to afford the services of an experienced interior designer but Helen’s design package offered exactly what I was after at a very affordable price.

Helen listened carefully to my requirements and tailored any suggestions directly from my brief. Her knowledge of room layout was obvious as she would come up with gems of ideas of what may or may not work, and why. Together with lots of recommendations of companies to use for all aspects of the design, Helen was a really useful adviser on my project.
