“Fantastic experience start to finish. I asked Katie to design a scheme and kit out our new Studio Apartment Holiday let in York. I found her incredibly professional, efficient, and organised. Her attention to detail and thoroughness throughout the project was second to none, and if we did this a second time, I would not hesitate to work with Katie again (although she does all the work!)
We had a number of timing hitches along the way - my end not Katie’s, and she very swiftly moved things around to accommodate these changes. If you are looking for a York based designer, JOAN should be your first call”

“Very highly recommended.
Totally transformed our holiday cottage using lovely warm colours and fabrics.
The whole project was managed from start to finish, including sourcing new furniture, as well as organising electricians , plumbers, and decorators.
Nothing was too much trouble .”

“From the very first meeting with Rebecca and Katie we knew that we were in safe hands. They listened carefully to what we wanted from our home and provided beautifully detailed schemes of work. Their eye for detail is fabulous and I am so pleased with the results. They sourced gorgeous fabrics, soft furnishings and small pieces of furniture for us. We also had an old sofa recovered and it looks amazing! They were never pushy or too busy to help. What really stood out was their ability to source a wide variety of furniture that suited different budgets. This meant that we were able to splurge on certain things but then save on others. This really helped us feel like we could keep control of our budget and at no point did we ever feel pressured to purchase a more expensive item. They provided accurate and timely billing which again meant no hidden surprises.
Our home feels so welcoming now and we enjoy entertaining our friends and family. We would certainly recommend them!”

“An absolute pleasure to work with. Would highly recommend and definitely use for our future projects.”

“We couldn’t recommend these lovely ladies highly enough. We have worked on and off with them for 7 years. They have done pretty much our whole house and we love it. Their designs and creations are tailor made to the detailed brief they discuss with you. They are organised and efficient and always deliver.
As we have two young children we needed to incorporate practicality and function as well as design which they were great for along with saving us a considerable amount on furniture that they procured at auctions.”

“Working with Becca and Katie has been an absolute pleasure. In the space of a few months they have managed to completely transform our home and we’re all absolutely thrilled with the results. They have a real eye for detail and instinctively know which colours and textures complement one another. They work hard to incorporate any existing furniture and don’t just look to completely replace everything. They are incredibly professional and keep you updated on progress throughout the entire process along with regular, detailed bills, illustrating any savings made on purchases. I look forward to working with them again when we work on phase II.”

“Katie & Rebeccca are a joy to work with, professional and knowledgable you know you are in good hands. They understood the brief and took it to another level, we could not be happier. From design and layout to sourcing fabrics and furniture their input and attention to detail is second to none and all within budget.”

“Highly recommended - the JOAN team came up with fantastic ideas and options within my budget that I would never have thought of myself - the result is amazing, the rooms are totally transformed and I am loving it all. I couldn’t be happier with their unique service and now want to continue in the rest of the house!”

“The team at JOAN are skilled at understanding a brief and designing rooms that are an absolute joy to live in as well as being beautiful to look at. They are amazing at pairing High St, designer and vintage pieces to create homes that are as individual as their clients. Working with them has saved me time, money and stress.”

“What an amazing experience I have had working with JOAN. They have totally transformed our house. The process is creative and fun, and has resulted in spaces that we never want to leave.
I want to buy a new house so that I can work with them again!!!!!
Thank you JOAN!”
