Interior Design Services

“I employed Wendy Bradford 2 years ago to oversea the interior design of my newly renovated bach in the Marlborough Sounds. The house was old and small however we renovated every room and opened out the lounge to a deck and we are very pleased with the result. I like to be involved with the design and Wendy was very happy with that ---- it's a consultative process, which to my mind is important. Wendy advised on colours throughout the house, curtains in each room, new furniture where required, introduced a kitchen designer to the mix, bathrooms, wooden floors, rugs etc. For a reasonable price we have ended up with a bach that has a very cool/ casual/ lodge feel to it --- and everybody loves it !! " Thanks Wendy "”

“Donna has designed two homes for me in Sydney in the past 3 years. I have been thrilled with the end result on both properties. Donna is great to work with and really listened to what I wanted to achieve. If I ever need design advice again I would definite use Donna.”

“I have used 5R Studio and worked with Margo on a number of occasions including several full renovation projects that included bathrooms, kitchens, changes to the layout and choosing internal and external colours. Some of the projects appeared challenging due to hidden issues, but despite this Margo was able to come up with clever solutions to keep cost down while not compromising on quality and end result. The real estate agents and people going through the open homes were always impressed with the properties and the way they were presented for sale. Margo is highly organised, responsive and extremely solution oriented. Her contractors and suppliers helped me keeping my budget under control. I would highly recommend her and 5R Studio to anyone considering not only undertaking a renovation but also for styling a home for sale or just changing the layout of a single room.”

“Jo was incredible. I had a tough ask. Help me with finishing touches on a new build in three weeks prior to Christmas. Jo visited me to have a look around and discuss ideas. She then launched into building the look boards virtually so that I could review whilst commuting - all items were avail to be purchased and delivered before Christmas. Jo nailed the brief and was so personally involved. This meant Jo arranged for delivery or delivered herself ( because I couldn’t with working full time). The house looks amazing and we have so many stunning pieces that Jo has helped us find.”

“I got Lauren to do us a board. We are redecorating. Felt like I was a bit picky with my specs it had to be homely and child friendly. The space she had to work with looked like something out of the 70s. Lauren did an absolutely amazing job and the ideas she suggested, the colours and textures were exactly what I wanted. She created a warm usable space that we can all enjoy that looks welcoming and stylish-thanks Lauren!!!”

“Erina is a consummate professionale who has an excellent sense of color, style and design. She has helped us redesign our outside deck area, two living rooms and 2 bedrooms and we are thrilled with the results. Highly recommend her work.”

“After Nicole had designed our bathroom, we begged her to do our kitchen too, we knew she would help us keep the things we loved. All done on time and at a very fair price within our budget. A great result, a contemporary kitchen and bathroom that retain the feel of the era of the rest of the house.”

“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.”

“Danni-Lee was WONDERFUL in her help with our kitchen design and colour decisions of our new house build. I found building and designing a house overwhelming with how many permanent, expensive decisions had to be made but Danni-Lee made the process so easy. By asking us simple questions on our lifestyle, how we would use the house, what vision and taste we had she narrowed our choices down giving a few incredible options in the colours of our house inside and out. When it came to kitchen design now that was a whole new level of wow! Suggesting drawers over cupboards, suggesting dimensions which work for a family old and young, maximising storage and bench space.. she even managed to find room to create a huge storage/office area which would have otherwise been wasted space. If and when we build or renovate again we would definitely use Danni-Lee again as she saved us SO much time, money and stress! Thank you so much for helping create our dream space, we love it and get SO many compliments with people asking for our colours to use on their own home (friends new build interior, families exterior and friends exterior all going with Danni-Lee's colour suggestion) :)”
