With Parsonage handed over, the project reflection has been an incredible experience, to see a bungalow flattened and a stunning 4-bedroom showcase, forever home built.

From Bristol and Cheltenham to Woking and Guildford, we’ve been designing, dressing, staging and renovating across multiple projects this month, and it’s been a great month for the whole team!

We’ve received six instructions this month for design, renovation and staging projects throughout Surrey and South London, and we can’t wait to get started on them all.

A busy month, March has been a mixture of design, renovating and project managing for the SHI team!

This weekend we visited the breath-taking Aynho Park, which has been transformed by former owners James and Sophie Perkins, and current owners RH Interiors (Restoration Hardware). The entire site, situated in acres of incredible woodland, with its own herd of White Hart deer.

2023 has been a whirlwind of a year, and I am personally grateful for every project we’ve had the pleasure of working on throughout the last twelve months. We’ve seen single room projects in Guildford, Epsom, Tadworth and Reigate, to full-house projects in Englefield Green, Weybridge and Woking, and each one has been a pleasure to design and work on with our lovely clients.

We’d like to wish all of our lovely clients, our wonderful suppliers and hard-working tradesmen and tradeswomen a very Merry Christmas. I cannot be more thankful for the support, the love and the custom from every person that has helped us grow so quickly over the last three years. I have some exciting news to share in January, with a fresh take on our company brand as well as Chris joining the team full time…!
