Ever wondered if hiring an Interior Designer is actually worth it?

At My Bespoke Room, we always hear our clients say one thing: “I wish I had done it sooner!”

That’s because there's a boatload of perks to partnering up with a designer (seriously, too many to count), but we've rounded just some of the best reasons why you should consider using one.

An Interior Designer can actually save you money 

Your first thought may be: Wait, so I’m paying more, but somehow I’m also cutting costs? How's that possible?

Well, many of our clients come to us after making expensive mistakes in the past, from investing in a sofa that totally doesn’t fit the size and style of the space to installing a new kitchen that doesn’t flow right at all.

By hiring an Interior Designer, you can say goodbye to expensive mistakes, as their professional knowledge means you’ll receive a design that you know will work. 

And if you thought you couldn’t afford to hire an Interior Designer, it may be time to think again! From just £395 per room, you are guaranteed to get a layout, colour scheme and products that will work perfectly in your space.

Plus, with us, you receive a tailored shopping list with everything you need to transform your space. Meaning you’ll have confidence knowing that every colour, material, pattern and size of the product will work together beautifully in your home.

If that’s not enough, by shopping through us you access exclusive savings of up to 25% and a price match promise, so you know you’re always getting the best deal.

Don’t just take it from us, hear it from one of our clients: "Laura listened carefully to our requirements, produced a great design and was available to answer questions at short notice.  She was friendly and knowledgeable and we comfortably saved more on the furniture than the design service cost."

A trained eye can help you solve annoying design dilemmas

We all have a few spots in our home that never quite feel right and slowly get taken for granted.

But with a trained eye from one of our talented designers at your side, you'll unlock a treasure trove of solutions to these pesky design puzzles.

Common problems our designers often solve for our clients include:

  • They avoid using certain spaces in their home

  • Their family is growing, but their home isn’t following suit

  • Having a dream home that only exists as a vision

  • Design disagreements among partners

  • Never finding the time to improve their space

  • Clutter feels like it’s taking over their home

  • The fear of making expensive mistakes

  • Feeling overwhelmed by a home extension

  • Their space never feels quite complete.

If any of these ring a bell or if you've got your own design dilemma whispering in the corners of your mind, you may want to consider bringing in the pros.

Wondering how the design experts solve these oh-so-common problems? Check out our dedicated blog.

Interior Designers can add value to your home

A well designed home isn’t just beautiful, it’s a magnet for potential buyers.

When your designer works their magic, it's not just about making things pretty - it's about optimising every nook and cranny to unlock your home's full potential. 

From tweaking layouts to maximising storage, they're like space wizards, transforming your home into a functional marvel that buyers can't resist.

So not only will you be making savings, you're also setting the stage for a higher selling price down the line.

Working with a designer will save you time

Nowadays, time is as precious as money and often our clients find that improving their home just gets pushed to the bottom of their never ending to-do list.

By delegating the work to an Interior Designer you save all that time researching, planning and browsing.

“For anyone who is time poor and doesn't want to spend endless hours trawling through furniture shops and design blogs, or who simply wants an expert to help them bring to life a vision they have seen on Pinterest/Instagram, I can highly recommend this service!”, says Amy.

But don’t worry, that doesn’t mean you don’t get any say in the project, the process is always super collaborative, meaning you get to skip straight to the fun parts while we handle the heavy lifting!

The process is super collaborative 

It’s always so much easier having another brain to bounce ideas off of, especially when that brain belongs to an Interior Designer!

When working with one of our designers at My Bespoke Room, you are sure to have your say every step along the way.

Our designers take your inspiration, whilst discussing your likes (and importantly dislikes) as well as tossing some fresh ideas into the mix.

“Our designer Nicole was amazing and really brought our ideas to life. She took the time to understand us, what we'd like to get out of the room, and our concerns before putting together a great and achievable plan,” says Maria.

You give the green light at every stage of the process making sure that you end up with a design you totally adore.

A designer can help you discover your style

If you’re feeling completely lost as to where to start when reimaging your space, a designer can help there too.

Inspiration can really come from anywhere and your designer can harness what is going on in your mind to work together with you and find a style you truly love that feels like you.

Plus, our designers can take on both you and your partner’s ideas to create a space that speaks to both of your styles!

You’ll access insider knowledge and their little black book

Your Interior Designer will have access to an abundance of exclusive resources, from the most up-to-date tech to exclusive trade-only suppliers. They have their ear on the ground when it comes to quality, great value products.

Plus, when working with us at My Bespoke Room, you don’t just gain access to your own personal Interior Designer, but you tap into an expansive network of designers who are constantly buzzing with ideas, sharing inspiration and bouncing off each other's creativity.

So you can rest easy knowing there is a whole team behind the scenes who has your back.
