I had the pleasure of working with Rhian on a renovation project in a previous role. Rhian’s creativity, energy and passion for what she does is clear from the moment you meet her. She is an exceptionally talented designer with a keen eye for detail who always strives for perfection. I hope I get to work with Rhian again in the future and can’t recommend her enough!

Bliss Kelsall - Commercial Director of The Cobbles Collective
We had the pleasure of collaborating with Rhian on our project to transform an old farm into a coffee shop, bar, and coastal holiday retreat. As fellow industry professionals, we were highly impressed by Rhian’s ability to complement and enhance our vision with her creative insights and expertise. Rhian worked closely with us to develop interior schemes for each space, bringing a fresh perspective and innovative ideas that perfectly matched our desired aesthetic and goals for the business. She specified the ideal furniture, ensuring each piece contributed to the cohesive and inviting atmosphere we aimed to create. Throughout the entire project, Rhian was an exceptional partner—easy-going, responsive, and always available to address any questions or challenges that arose. Her skill in interpreting our brief and transforming it into beautifully designed spaces was invaluable. We highly recommend Rhian for her professionalism, creativity, and dedication. Working with her was an outstanding experience, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the results.

Chris & Alex Williams – West Farm, Southerndown
When the opportunity arose for Newydd to completely refresh its office interior, we decided against the standard, sterile office look. Instead, we envisioned a working environment that was welcoming, engaging, and unique. Rhian fully understood our brief and, with her talent, experience, and expertise in interior design, created an exciting, inviting, and clean space that truly has the 'wow factor'. Even when we had to alter the brief midway through the project to meet RNIB standards, Rhian adapted seamlessly, implementing the changes with a professional and positive attitude. We have no reservations in recommending Rhian to others!

Simon Morris – Development & Asset Director, Newydd Housing
Rhian's input to our refurbishment project went way beyond original expectations. From drawing out of us the real aspirations we had for the project through helping us maximise our budget to showing us simply what could be possible, Rhian's support, encouragement and advice were invaluable to the project's success. Her expertise and attention to detail are legendary at United Welsh, without her confidence we'd have settled for an end result way below our finished design. It still looks as fresh now, almost five years later, as the day we unveiled it. Rhian's commitment to stay in touch with current product availability and design advances, her personal investment in delivering the best project we could manage and her tenacity in dealing with contractors, suppliers and craftsmen gave us not only a high quality outcome but a project which made decisions easier, enabled us to be confident in the changes we were making and was, frankly, fun to be part of.

David Williams - Partnership Manager, United Welsh Housing
When we invited Rhian to reimagine our work environment, the transformation was nothing short of remarkable. Her innovative design not only revamped our head office visually but also revolutionised how our colleagues interact with the space. The impact has exceeded our expectations, allowing us to adapt swiftly to industry changes and even attract new talent. Without Rhian’s expertise, these lasting improvements would never have materialised

Elli Meredith - Governance and Compliance Partner, United Welsh Housing
I have worked with Rhian in applying inclusive design on an office refurbishment for people with little or no sight as part of the Visibly Better Spaces certification. Rhian seamlessly dovetailed the inclusive design specifications whilst incorporating the design scope of her client requirements. The outcome was beautiful, calming and supportive for a wider group of people including those who consider themselves to be neurodiverse or live with sight loss. A professional job from Rhian!

David Watkins - Visibly Better Co-ordinator, RNIB (Royal National Institute of Blind People)
Rhian approaches a project like it's her own home, regularly going the extra mile to get the desired end result. She is able to source quality pieces without the eye-watering price tags and has a good eye for design. Rhian listens and works within the brief. We have been extremely pleased with the results to date. I would recommend her to anyone looking to add character and warmth to their internal office finishes.
