WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY
"The whole team at Q Design have been a joy to work with. They are professional, creative and patient (!). They have been wonderful at listening to our ideas and coming up with their own imaginative and practical solutions for our home. They are transparent on cost and easy to work with, always available for questions and hand-holding."
Rebecca Bormann
"...exceptional, we can't recommend them enough. We moved into a 1920's house that needed a complete refurb. We had a few ideas of how we wanted it to look and were expertly guided by [the team] in creating a home far beyond our expectations. [The team's] designs were spot on, they clearly listened to what our vision was and took the time to get to know us. From beginning to end has been a drama free experience, they found us the best build team in the South East and have been outstanding at managing the project, budget and timelines. Huge thanks!"
WHAT CLIENTS SAY
"I bought a house in Berkshire in June, 2021 which was in need of a complete renovation. After speaking with a few local designers we decided to go with Q Design. My wife had a specific theme and colour scheme in mind and Josie and Michelle listened to our requirements and came up with a concept design that was just to our taste. Everything just clicked from the get go!
[They] came up with some brilliant ideas and took a lot of stress out of us during the decoration and finishing stage. We really appreciated their thoroughness and professionalism throughout the course. Not forgetting the build team too. As a property investor I've worked with many interior designers before and hand on heart Q Design is one of the best there is. Highly recommended. Note: My sister came to visit me from Vancouver initially for one week but after seeing the house she extended her stay for another week so great jobs ladies!"
Bob Wu
WHAT CLIENTS SAY
“Josie, Michelle and the entire Q Design House team were an absolute pleasure to work with. Having worked with other designers before we really noticed the difference - genuinely creative and original ideas whilst listening to and incorporating our feedback. This is an approach that many offer, but few deliver like Q Design House! They were also very tolerant with our inherently indecisive nature.
We were so pleased that we asked them to complete a second project on a holiday home. The end results are amazing, we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone else.”
James & Rachel Watson
WHAT CLIENTS SAY
"Josie at Q Design is creative, intuitive, professional and very easy to work with, there is never a drama. I have worked with Josie on several projects, she redid my entire chalet in Switzerland and then switched styles completely to help redo my kitchen/living area in my house in Notting Hill. I love both designs."
Marjorie Bannister
"We could not receive more compliments on our house refurbishment if we tried. Q Design House understood the brief and added creative dimensions bringing our home to a whole new level of exquisite chic."
