Penman Interiors

We have worked with Nichola over the past year for our family home and really enjoyed working with her. We made significant changes to our Living room and the Master bedroom with lots of bespoke pieces (from joinery, cushion to the rug), she has used her creative skills, taking into account our requirements and designed a beautiful home for us. Nichola also project managed the implementation for us, dealt with different tradespeople and made sure each element was implemented correctly. When she found the headboard frame was not in the right color, she asked the tradespeople to take it back immediately and made adjustments. With Nichola project managed the whole implementation process, it provided us peace of mind and hassle free. We are delighted with the end result and would highly recommend Nichola.

We could not have been happier with our choice. Nichola is an absolute pleasure to work with and she has proven to be reliable, creative and personable. As a couple, my wife and I, are quite knowledgeable when it comes to design and creative inputs and Nichola has been an absolute star in understanding when to follow and when to lead the creative process. She has demonstrated great knowledge and great taste throughout our project. We are truly happy to have found her as we will continue to connect and interact with her in the future! Daniele

Having bought a second home in the Cotswolds during lockdown I called on Nichola yet again to help me with the interior design as we had a whole house redecorate and style ready for rentals and to be honest I felt slightly overwhelmed! Having used Nichola's services previously, I knew she was the right person for the job and would confidently take on the brief providing me with some wonderfully creative ideas and hassle free! Cleverly using a variety of natural materials she has managed to create a country cosy feel to the house that was important to us whilst maintaining elegance and style. We are delighted with the end result and I would have no hesitation in recommending Nichola.

Nichola was the Interior Designer and Procurement Manager for the refurbishment of our Victorian red brick semi in Dulwich. She continues to work with us on the finishing touches. A significant element of role was to redesign the main bedroom, the second bedroom and the living rooms. She listened carefully and understood the brief well. She produced some lovely designs and boards, and made an impressive presentation. Her ideas and proposals were imaginative, and sympathetic in interpreting our sometimes ill defined thoughts, which resulted in a great blend of contemporary and traditional styles and features. Her design has produced bright and airy rooms together with some really lovely furniture, soft furnishings and finishes. We are really very pleased with the outcome. Nichola added real value to our project especially during a very challenging (Covid!) period. I have thoroughly enjoyed working with her and would not hesitate to recommend her.

Nichola is a fantastic interior designer. Her design input in our full renovation project has been invaluable. She has great vision while being making sure your own personal style comes through. She pays attention to the smallest detail to make sure all the design elements come together and is a pleasure to work with. Her fees are reasonable and she goes above and beyond to get the job done. I would highly recommend Penman Interiors for any design project.

Nichola is a wonderful interior designer and I am always incredibly excited when she asks me to find artworks for her clients - I know that I will be be entering a house that is beautiful and that it will have something that I can 'jump off' for ideas. I get to meet Nichola's clients at the end of a project and they are always delighted with her work. You are in safe and stylish hands with her.

We have had the pleasure of working with the Penman Interiors team on multiple occasions over recent years and are always impressed by their professionalism and responsiveness. Working with Nichola’s team is always immensely enjoyable thanks to their exceptional creative vision, excellent communication and visible commitment to the needs of their clients.

Nicola was a pleasure to work with. We wanted to revamp our master bedroom nd en suite bathroom. She listened to the brief (even though we didn't really know what we wanted!) and came up with various ideas. She was very good at steering us to things we definitely would not have been brave enough to try on our own. She works with an excellent team - for all the soft furnishings, building work, plumbing etc and was very hands on at co-ordinating it all. There were of course hiccups and wrinkles but she was very good at putting things right and making sure we were happy with the end result. I would definitely recommend her.

We instructed Nichola at Penman Interiors, to design one of our new, two bed apartments at St George’s Heights, Esher, as a show home for prospective buyers. The apartment needed to demonstrate the optimum layout for furniture arrangement and sell a potential lifestyle to our target buyer. Nichola answered this brief admirably and we were very happy with each room she designed, in terms of furniture style, quality and colours. Delivery and installation was on time and managed well. We would recommend Nichola very highly, to any home owner or developer in the future.

We approached Nichola having seen her reviews on Houzz to help us interior design and fully renovate our Victorian Semi Detached House in Dulwich. We are busy professionals and are a young family. We wanted someone dependable to project manage the build and also help us realise our vision for this property. Our budget was tight for the amount that we wanted to achieve. Nichola was extremely patient with us and is a highly conscientious person. She has a strong work ethic and no ask is to much. Any build project is extremely stressful and Nichola worked hard to make it as comfortable as possible for us. For example, we gave her three months to complete the project which started in Sept 18 and asked for us to move in before Christmas. She managed to achieve this and then ensured that the builders came back after Christmas to address all the snags. For a project of this nature there were quite a few, however, Nichola persevered to ensure that even the tiniest snag was taken care of and we as a family were 100% comfortable in our new property. On several occasions she went above and beyond introducing us to her wide range of contacts to cover certain items which weren’t even in the scope of our works. Nichola is now a friend and over time she has gained our trust. This is the ideal outcome for what otherwise could be one of the most testing times for anyone. Overall, we have been impressed by Nichola’s dedication and commitment to our project. I would not hesitate to recommend her service to anyone keen on undertaking such a project.

Alternative Bathrooms have worked with Penman Interiors on many of their projects. Nichola excels with her bathroom designs and she is always willing to take on board any helpful advise that is offered. She works closely with her clients and suppliers to produce stunning, amazing quality bathrooms that are within budget. She is inspirational, professional, courteous and always a pleasure to work with.

We hired Nichola Snuggs of Penman Interiors to help us refurbish a London apartment. As we live in the US, it was invaluable to have Nichola manage all aspects of the makeover, from the kitchen, bathrooms, floors and furnishings. Nichola provided oversight of the contractors, took us around to stores on our London visits and sent us samples when were were away to keep the project moving. As the project neared finish, Nichola helped us select finishing touches such as art and kitchenware. We highly recommend Nichola for conceptualizing and executing a residential design project.
