Over the past 18 months, Sandy has worked with me to stage 3 newly renovated apartments for sale.On each occasion, the style Sandy created was the perfect blend of modern but relaxed, a very clever mix of affordable pieces combined with luxurious items. Real estate agents and buyers alike were extremely complimentary of the end result and in all cases the apartments sold quickly, often including the beautiful furniture and accessories!I am continually amazed at Sandy's ability to envisage the end product, sometimes without even seeing the space - Facetime is a brilliant invention! Her time spent growing up in Europe provides a unique perspective on how to use small spaces in the most practical (and stylish!) way. She has an abundance of energy and ideas and no problem is too big or too small.I am now working with Sandy to update my own home. I love the way that she takes the time to really understand our personal tastes, preferences and price range. Then she executes perfectly.I would highly recommend Sandy for any interior design work - large project or small space!

As soon as I started working with Sandy I knew she was someone I could trust completely. She understood exactly what would appeal to me and came up with a design for my new beach house that I absolutely love. Sandy has great attention to detail which ensures the look is consistent and everything works together. She goes the extra mile, even helping to unnpack and assemble furniture and choose and hang pieces of art to bring the whole look together. I have no hesitation in giving Sandy the highest recommendation.

It is always a pleasure working with Sandy. She can turn a sketchy brief into something quite magical.I've worked with Sandy over the past twelve months on the conceptualising and procurement of items for our new home build. Her input and styling ability has made our home an absolute pleasure to be in.She is easy to work with, has a wealth of wonderful ideas, enthusiasm and experience and continually goes the extra mile to ensure the very best outcome.We've had fun together over the course of the project and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her.Sylvia Smith

Words cannot describe how wonderful Sandy has been. She has helped me to create my dream home with her creative ideas, professionalism and ability to see and imagine things I didn't think were possible! Sandy is easy to work with and made the whole process an enjoyable experience. I cannot thank her enough for her patience with our project and its changing demands; thank you Sandy for your hugely appreciated honesty regarding design decisions, managing various demands all at once, and your constant willingness to go above and beyond.

Had a wonderful experience working with the talented Sandy on interior design aspects of our home. Sandy took inspiration from some existing loved pieces and understood us and our lifestyle before coming up with a proposal. She listened to our feedback, provided alternative suggestions and was flexible in all areas from design to budget. We hope to do more with Sandy on the next stage.

Sandy has been an absolute professional and there doesn't seem to be any limit to her talent! She worked with us to understand our personal style, budget and timeframe and has been very patient while we progress from one step to the next. We would recommend Sandy for smart, practical style ideas and inspiration and reliable, professional advice.

Sandy from D for Design helped us refresh our living area with new curtains and furniture, including a bespoke built-in wall unit for books and storage. She also designed a beautiful wall cabinet for our kitchen.Sandy was extremely knowledgable and was able to work within our budget. She didn't pressure us to change everything at once and instead came up with fabrics that will allow us to do things, like change the carpet, in the future without having to change the curtains or furniture again.We have had a lot of positive comments from people who have seen the changes Sandy made, and it has really brightened and lightened up our living area. We're looking forward to working with Sandy again in the future.

We live in a large house with wonderful views and a lot of sun, however, we lived in a house not a home.We thought we could try and make it a beautiful home, but we did not have a clue as to what we were doing, to the point that we seriously considered selling it.Then we were referred to Sandy. We looked at her work online and decided to contact her as this was the direction we wanted to go with in terms of design and style.From the initial consultation we felt very comfortable dealing with Sandy, whom we found to be very accommodating, professional and extremely talented.Over the last 12 months we have worked with Sandy to furnish and style our lounge and large open plan living areas.We would highly recommend Sandy as she was a pleasure to work with and has successfully fulfilled our vision of creating a sophisticated yet warm and inviting home, where we can make the most of each living space. Her choice of timeless furniture, fabrics and art, flow beautifully throughout the house and the shutters she suggested are perfect in so far as that one can regulate the heat coming into the house and they also look amazing!We love the final outcome and recommend Sandy to anyone!J & D
