CoCreate Interiors

I worked with Fiona Bell, from my home in Malaysia, on fitting out a new build apartment in Bermondsey close to The Shard. She was fantastic from the start to the finish and really helped me to work out how to move from a 6,300 sq feet place to an 814 sq feet place! Of key importance was the space planning and built in storage - Fiona came up with a stylish design for a banquette complete with hidden drawers, shelves and bookshelves and other sneaky storage ideas e.g. hidden under beds. As a result I have managed to keep far more things than I'd hoped to and the apartment doesn't look at all cluttered. Fiona also helped in recommending designs and colours ...and in sourcing some stylish (high end probably) furniture and materials. She paid great attention to detail and the brief I'd given her, which meant we worked the style and scheme together, at no point did I feel she was imposing her own taste on mine - although I do think she rather liked some of my choices! It was great fun working with her and I really love my apartment and have no doubt this is largely thanks to Fiona's input. She said from the start "it's going to be your home so you have to love it".

"I worked with Fiona to re-design the interior of my riverside 4 bedroom house, including the re-design of two of the bedrooms for the purpose of a dressing room and an office. Fiona did an excellent job of merging the riverside location into a beautiful and comfortable home, working with colours, fabrics and space to open the house up whilst at the same time making it cosy and homely. It's beautiful and I'm delighted. The process was easy and enjoyable as well. I wanted to be involved, but I wasn't available to source everything, or manage the process. Fiona did this and more. She brought an inspiration, taste and calmness to the process that made it a thoroughly enjoyable experience. I can't recommend her highly enough."

Fiona Bell at CoCreate handled the design for a major five-bedroom property renovation for us and we can't recommend her highly enough. She instinctively understood what we needed to achieve: the perfect balance between 'old and new', enhancing the original period features while achieving a light, airy, contemporary feel. The kitchen she designed for us is simply stunning and we’re delighted we followed her advice throughout the property. Fiona has worked with London's top interior designers and clearly has an extensive network of contacts which was a huge advantage for us in terms of sourcing materials. We would always use her for any future projects.

Fiona's interior design course is not only very informative but also a happy experience. She involves her class in practical, interesting projects right from the beginning and creates a pleasant and friendly atmosphere .
