Case Study

 

The clients had undergone a complete transformation on their property in Barnt Green transforming an older property into a stunning contemporary family home. Following these extensive works the clients  needed some assistance in sourcing and designing finishing touches for each of the rooms.

 

Brief:

 

To provide ideas for cohesive schemes to flow throughout the house. The house had been opened up to create spaces that flowed from one to another with lots of natural light and minimalist finishes by the clients architects. The challenge here was not to over dress the house which primarily consisted of hard surfaces and so although beautiful, needed transforming into a comfortable home with some softness whilst not taking away from the intended minimal architectural details.

 

 

 

RD Designs scope of services on this project were

 

Style file created of the entire house divided into sections for each room. The client was very decisive and keen to be involved in the process and was able to visualise and trust RD Interior Designs ideas.  Rachel and the client spent time together in the showroom deciding on maybe one fabric for each room which then acted as a starting point for RD Interior Design to work on a scheme for each room.

Site survey of all rooms, designs for each window treatment, make up, installation and quality control. Specifying re upholstery, make up of headboards, design and make up of bespoke rugs, consultation on finishing touches. Sourcing of leather and arranging bespoke seating for the study.

Results by the client………..

I had always had an interest in interiors and soft furnishing and so when it came to the finishing of our re-modeled home I needed to find someone with an understanding of what I wanted.

 

RD Design has the most wonderful showroom with lots of inspiring samples and pattern books, wonderful and unusual tie backs and curtain poles.  I was made to feel welcome on all my visits, books were shown, samples displayed and ideas put forward with out pressure or intimidation.

 

I knew that I wanted a contemporary look with splashes of colour that would echo through out the house. I like neutral colours that have texture and depth.

 

Rachel had just the right approach to my project.  I did not need the full design service on offer just help putting together the right fabrics for the right rooms. Linking things together with rugs, lights, cushions and the most exquisite tie backs and braids.

 

I was able to lead the discussions so I never felt that I had to have what Rachel suggested and we made changes to the choice of fabrics when some where out of budget but the replacements were just as effective.

 

The one thing that Rachel had no control over was the waiting time for delivery of the fabric but even this was dealt with professionally and with notice.  I had the chance to change the fabric for something that was in stock but decided to wait for the original one.

 

The making of the curtains is simply fantastic. The attention to detail is there and only two curtains needed very small adjustment. Fitting and expertise was constantly shown.

 

I found Rachel’s business  to be

• Great choice of the best fabrics

• Accessories that compliment and tie concepts together

• Knowledgeable

• Intuitive

• Did not push their opinions upon me

• Ethical
