TESTIMONIALS

"It was a genuine pleasure to work with Emily. Her design ideas and our discussions will continue to inspire us for years to come!"

BEDROOM CONCEPT DESIGN

"We contacted Emily to help us reimagine our new home and from the very first meeting, she inspired new ideas and ways of thinking about our living space, particularly the main bedroom. We had a certain style in mind but didn't know how to execute it. We left each meeting thereafter feeling excited about our home's potential. Emily created a design concept for the entire house and then one specific to the bedroom, including a colour palette. She selected paint colours for us to choose from and provided a personal shopping list of furniture, soft-furnishings and decor items, to help us complete the transformation. Emily really listened to and understood our needs, was always friendly and approachable and was a genuine pleasure to work with. Her design ideas and our discussions will continue to inspire us for years to come! We would not have any hesitation about recommending Emily to anyone."

MODERN BARN CONVERSION

"Working with this interior design service was an absolute pleasure. My partner and I were struggling to agree on a new paint scheme. We were desperate to update our home but were getting nowhere. We contacted Emily, initially just for a colour consultation, but ended up using her full design service to completely overhaul our entire ground floor. She took our vision for our open plan living space in our barn conversion and brought it to life by feeding us ideas and imagery. Both my partner and I are really happy with the results. With her attention to detail and creativity, we have transformed our downstairs into a contemporary and inviting space. We couldn't be happier with the end result and highly recommend her to anyone looking to elevate their home.

LOUNGE / DINING ROOM TRANSFORMATION

"For years, we have wanted to re-vamp our lounge/dining room but didn’t know how to breathe new life into the dark and cluttered space. Emily helped to motivate us to make big changes to our living space. She created a moodboard to show us a new cleaner, sophisticated living space.. Together we looked at possibilities and Emily guided us with our choices. She helped us to select a fireplace, paint, wallpaper, carpet, furniture and lighting. She gave us the confidence to look at bolder, braver solutions and pushed us out of our comfort zone. The result is an expansive, light and contemporary space that still feels homely and timeless. The final touch was a framed artwork commission that she did for us, to complement the mood and colour scheme. Emily guided us through plastering, electrical and plumbing works, to help with what felt like a big job. As a result, everything felt much more manageable. Our renovation came together, stage by stage, on time, and has given us a calmer, more relaxing space that is ideal for our life style."

LIVING ROOM RE-MAKE

"We found the experience of re-designing our lounge mind-blowing. Emily helped us to navigate through a vast range of colours and styles, often challenging our traditional colour palettes and tastes. We were inspired to brave a brightly coloured sofa and even introduce metallic paints. Emily pushed us to 'do things differently' and by painting the skirting boards and the ceiling in the same colour as the walls, we have a family room that feels unique. Emily helped us to find ways to re-purpose some furniture that we already had, to suit the new look of our lounge. It was great to realise that we didn't have to buy everything new, to make a big change to the space. She also helped us source some stylish new radiators and gave us ideas with lighting that made us step away from the usual choices. We are delighted with the results. "

LOUNGE RE-COLOUR

"Emily knows about colour. After seeing some of her colour suggestions on social media, we hired her to help modernise our lounge and move us on from the safe, neutral, earthy tones to something a bit more modern and contemporary. She presented several choices from her colour charts, then followed through with particular product suggestions from different paint brands. Emily suggested colour combinations for cushions and curtains and even lighting, that would be perfect complements for this project."

LOUNGE RE-DESIGN

"We hired Emily Radford interiors as we wanted something different than the norm in our lounge. One of the great things about Emily is that she was able to understand our style and made it come alive. She was constantly in touch, sending us ideas of furnishing she had sourced for us. Emily helped us make colour choices and style suggestions and was very knowledgeable about the different products used in our lounge. We couldn't be happier with the work she has done for us."

Claire

LOUNGE TRANSFORMATION

"We thoroughly enjoyed working with Emily when updating our lounge. We had a few ideas, but Emily was instrumental in helping us be a bit braver with colours, texture, and design. She was so creative and went above and beyond to ensure we were informed and confident in our decisions. We've had so many compliments on the design and will definitely be in touch when we're ready to update our dining room."

LOUNGE CONCEPT DESIGN

"I have wanted to update my lounge for a long time but lacked direction. Emily has made a mood board for me and I am still buzzing from her presentation. Emily is intelligent, well organised, stylish and a lovely person, who took time to understand my house, personality and lifestyle to create an innovative and thoughtful design scheme that I can use as inspiration to create my perfect room. Thank you so much Emily!"

FAMILY BATHROOM DILEMMA

"Emily has the patience of a saint and the creative genius of a true artist! We had made a total hash of trying to design and decorate our own bathroom. She helped us make sense of our colour choices and find a way to make our slightly old-fashioned attempt look super modern and chic. I’m no longer embarrassed when people come round… thanks so much, Emily!"

RENOVATION ADVICE

"Emily really helped me when I was at the end of my tether with a recent renovation project. She came on board to help with fixtures and finishing and was a god send at a time when we were suffering from decision fatigue and complete overwhelm. She listened to what we wanted and took time to understand our style and also how we wanted the rooms to function. I would recommend her at any time in your project. An absolute gem!"

COLOUR CONSULTANCY

"I love colour, however I really struggle putting it together and so I always revert back to more safe, neutral tones. Emily did a fantastic job helping me create colourful rooms that look tasteful and put together. Would highly recommend."

LOUNGE TRANSFORMATION

"Emily recently worked with one of our clients who were in the process of modernising their home. The client was in need of advice on how to achieve that perfect look and part of this home redesign included the removal of an 80’s style fireplace. The client wanted to go with something more contemporary which involved the installation of a woodburner and fireplace. Flaming Fires worked collaboratively with Emily to guide them in their choices and to deliver a solution suitable to the clients needs and tastes.
Emily worked on the design of the entire room, with the new fireplace being the focal point of this particular project. The end result is fantastic and the client is extremely happy.
Flaming Fires would highly recommend Emily at Radford Interiors to anyone who needs professional guidance in their interior design choices. Many clients simply do not have the foresight to see how the room will ultimately look and this is where Emily comes into her own with her eye for putting materials and colour schemes together.
