"We’ve worked with Sarah at SB Homes and recommend her highly. Her designs are absolutely stunning and she works closely with our customers to create their kitchens. The 3D models she provides really help bring the vision to life, and she always listens to what people want, collaborating with them. Any tweaks are made quickly and efficiently, and the final plans are full of detail, making it easy for our trades to understand and deliver. A brilliant designer who makes the whole process smooth and enjoyable."

"When I purchased my Victorian terraced home Sarah created me a mood board with some amazing ideas helping bring the character back into the property throughout each and every room. I have literally followed all the visuals she gave me even down to using the exact paint she recommended and I'm absolutely in love with my home and how it has turned out! She has given the best advice. Would definitely recommend and use her services again!"

"I recently had the pleasure of working with Sarah on our renovation project, and I must say, her involvement should have started from the very beginning! Not only did she infuse our home with her incredible creativity, but the final result exceeded all our expectations. Sarah is exceptionally professional and has an eye for detail that truly adds class to both the small elements and the overall vision. I wholeheartedly recommend her services and can’t wait to collaborate on our future projects together. Thank you, Sarah, for making our home more beautiful!"

"The team has been incredible, from the first meeting to mood boards, dealing with fitters to the final sign off it’s been seamless. I had a rough idea on my home renovations but didn’t think about the finer details. The team were amazing when I wasn’t keen on ideas and were so open about what would work best in the space. Renovating a small space I really appreciated the ideas and experience. I’ll certainly be using the team on another project. Many thanks for all your support."

"I hired Sarah to design my alcove storage / media wall that would bring back originality and be in keeping with my Georgian home. The design was exactly what I wanted, clear for the joiner to follow and looks absolutely perfect ! I cannot recommend her enough and will return for my next project. She helped put my ideas on paper to enable my husband to visualise and bring my vision to life ! Thank you so much to Sarah & her team."

"Been a pleasure working with Sarah at Studio Said Design on recent projects. Looking forward to many more. Sarah is extremely personable and professional, any clients looking for a designer with a meticulous eye for detail, and unparalleled care for her clients should look no further. I’ve worked in the stone industry for the past 21 years dealing with many design professionals, kitchen designers, fitters and builders, and know first hand that not all designers are created equally. Many thanks, Sarah and Team."

"Fantastic results from Studio Said, very professional from start to finish. Measurements and drawings were spot-on, and the design was thorough, showing excellent knowledge in making the most of the space. I would 100% use them again and happily recommend them to others. Thanks, Studio Said!"

Yorkshire

Well Said

"Working with Studio Said was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. Sarah helped us source a principal contractor for our renovation project, who subsequently provided a clear timeline of works, which took a huge weight off our minds. Sarah then produced detailed technical drawings and plans which were fully briefed to the contractor, meaning we were confident from the outset that all the building work required would be delivered on time, and on budget. Sarah is much more than just an interior designer. Her technical knowledge of buildings and architecture, combined with her exceptional flare for design and interior concepts, make her the very best at what she does. If you want to create the very best residential or commercial property, work with Studio Said."

"I am thrilled to share my experience working with Sarah at Studio Said and how they designed my shop into a stunning and inviting space that truly reflects my style and personality. Not to mention the knowledge she has for materials, sustainability, suppliers, and just generally always on hand to help reshape or reform a particular space that might have had slight last-minute alterations."

Well Said

"Sarah took a jumble of ideas and transformed them into designs that have been both practical but aesthetically attractive. With her vision and knowledge, Sarah managed to transform what was an open, barren, and uninviting kitchen into light, intimate cosy areas which has now become the heart of our home.  Sarah cleverly incorporated bespoke shelving with a fireplace and media unit to divide the dining area from the lounge whilst still been coupled to the kitchen, perfect for when we are hosting family and friends."

"We appointed Sarah to redesign our office space, it was outdated and tired. Sarah was able to take on board mine and the teams needs for the office and create a space that totally rejuvenated the office. From getting in contact to handing over the project Sarah was a pleasure to work with keeping me updated throughout."

"We used Studio Said to renovate multiple flats in our portfolio, as we wanted to appeal to the higher end rental and sales markets. This has to be one of the best decisions we made, Sarah (lead designer) was extremely professional from start to finish. The design has helped us secure higher end tenants and significantly increase the value of the flats."
