Dining Room Design Services in Christchurch, Canterbury

“We recently renovated which included a small extension to the open plan kitchen/living/dining room to accommodate a bigger kitchen and make sense of the living space. Treena helped us with the planning process both for the kitchen space and design and also the living/dining space decor. It looks amazing! There were so many things to consider with this project and more decisions to be made than I could have imagined. Treena had a huge range of samples available to get a sense of what we liked and once the style had been decided she narrowed down our choices considerably and kept us on track. She helped us choose kitchen and paint colours, wall tiles, tapware, lighting, curtains, blinds, wood flooring and rugs, and even cushions which gave our existing furniture a new life. She also designed and had made for us a very large entertainment unit that gives us lovely display shelving, a place for the TV, great storage and also houses a charging station for all of our electronic devices...magic! Treena sourced all of the products and arranged installation, and we were pleasantly surprised at the prices, which were much less than we expected. Even though I've renovated before I'm so glad that I used Swift Designs for this project as the choices and number of decisions that had to be made would have been overwhelming without Treena's expertise....and I would never have had enough time to do it all! I love my new space and highly recommend using Treena for any home design project.”

“Truly one of the most innovative and bold designers in New Zealand. Alex has the inimitable ability to both bring statement and control to a space, resulting in refreshingly modern but personality packed interiors.”

“Armstrong Interiors helped to fit out the kitchen , laundry , lounge and blinds throughout the town house . They provided an excellent service by keeping me informed of delivery dates and making sure tradesmen completed there work . I would not hesitate to recommend them as an excellent interior design service . Regards Andrea”

“I dealt with Emma Morris from Eterno Design for my new house. she did all the interior and also work together with the architect and landscape designer to make sure that everything flow nicely. she also did some of my furnitures and helped chose my curtains. she is great to work with. Very easy to contact, so i dont have to chase her around which is quite a nightmare when you have a lot of tradies. she handled all the tradies for me and therefore i didnt have much problem. she arranged everything from quotes from different suppliers and joiners to the finishing. she was even monitoring the installation to make sure they are up to her standard and it is perfect. her tradies are good and easy to deal with - even after they finished their job and the house settled, so a few adjustments were necessary. she understood what i need and want. she only needed to revise slightly of her design for my kitchen. this really save time and money for me, revising things will definitely costs me more. so i was really happy when i could keep the costs down. the kitchen is very low maintainance, practical and timeless. i got a lot of compliments from friends and family. what i like about emma is that she let me know the pros and cons of everything from types of materials, finishing, lighting and even paints. this is the first time i am building a house, so her experience and knowledge definitely helps. there are no hidden costs as well with emma. she takes a bit of commission and she gets discounts from her suppliers too so the price were reasonable. i definitely recommend her. i will definitely would get her to help me in my future project. since i know she is very responsible and take pride in her work.”

“Alex has an excellent eye for design, attention to detail and endless patience. She always listens to her clients needs. These qualities are essential for a good partnership and stunning design result. The use of an interior designer is the gum in the project and brings it all together for a successful outcome.”

“MCAS has been working with Anthony from Smith and Sons Renovations & Extensions Port Hills on a number of residential alterations. We have recommended him to a client of ours for a house renovation and extension. The work has been carried out timely and in budget and Anthony proved again to have a proactive and cooperative approach.”

“I could never recommend Mooi Design highly enough. From the moment I engaged them to the completion of the build, my wife and I always felt special and that they had OUR best interests in mind. No job for Mooi was ever a problem and in my mind they tackled over and above their brief. Our budget was only ever stretched by our lack of imagination, which once enlightened, it became clear why we engaged them to help us finish the design of our house. Great work Mooi and thanks.........”

“Emily has an excellent eye and I have loved working with her! I would absolutely recommend her!”

“I have never seen anyone get more excited about a new building than the people of Redcliffs. I could barely get any work done! The story starts, as so many others in Christchurch, with earthquakes and demolition. The team at Young Architects has close ties to the neighbourhood, and was involved in the rebuild of the community library from the very beginning. They took up the challenge of designing an inviting public meeting space that reflects its community. From the red colour of the building to the gable construction reminiscent of the spines on a bookshelf, the library is a space Redcliffs is very proud of, as I soon learned. Since I happen to live down the road, I did more than my usual share of bullying the client into involving me. I knew the semi-translucent gable would be perfect for blue hour photography once finished. I got really excited picturing the final images in my mind's eye. When Greg Young and I finally toured the library, the degree of pride in the community was almost overwhelming. People stopped us repeatedly in the streets to tell their library stories, express how proud they are, and what a good guy Greg is. There were even a few hugs. While I was shooting the building a little while later, people repeatedly told me how happy they were with their new library. It was touching to see how connected everyone felt with this space. I hope the images will do the project justice.”

“We have worked with the team at Three Sixty Architecture on numerous projects and would have no hesitation in recommending them to any clients of ours. Their designs are distinctive, their drawings well detailed and accurate and they have a pragmatic approach which is valued by our team onsite.”
