We have been privileged to work with so many fantastic clients over the years. They have allowed us into their homes to make a difference to their lives, and here are some of the things that they have to say about the experience

“What a Team! All just wonderful people as individuals and what they do. Last week’s move was an impressive display to watch from the wings – a well-oiled machine all working with humour, kindness, flexibility and patience. We all loved and appreciated each and every one, even those that weren’t here on the day, but who did a beautiful job too!” - PG 

“If you want fabulous colour that harmonises throughout your project, brave yet chic combinations and straight talking advice, look no further than Kelling Designs - I am utterly thrilled with the service I received and the home that we now live in.” - DS

“Emma and her team were a delight to work with, and Emma was inspired and full of energy, sensitivity and imagination from start to finish. We are delighted with the results and I can wholeheartedly recommend Emma for any project, large or small.” - RF

“I have always loved working with Kelling Designs.  They have helped me with 4 homes now, large and small and never let me down.” - CG

“You will be pleased to hear that we have sold our property in Auberge Jerome, in Les Arcs, really almost entirely because your input in updating it and making it more homely attracted a lovely British family who will use and it and love it. Thank you so much.” - JS

'We contacted Emma to ask for her help with the final stage of our renovation project; the interior design. Emma could not have been more helpful, working to a tight budget and even tighter timeframe, she hit the ground running, with her no nonsense approach and valuable expertise we had a plan in no time and were beyond delighted with the result. All our guests who have stayed with us this year have been blown away by the beautiful touches throughout the property and many have said they would like to return! We cannot recommend Emma and her team more highly." - EB

“Thank you, thank you so much for making our dream house come alive. You have achieved something that we never, ever could have and I am incredibly grateful for that. It was a big project and you made it fun and less stressful than I imagined. The response from friends and family has been fantastic and everyone loves it as much as we do.” - EM

“I just wanted to say thank you for the work that the team at Kelling have done for us in Méribel. It is a fantastic achievement given the complexity of juggling the distance, logistics, suppliers etc that it has all come together so well. I for one certainly underestimated the amount of work involved. The girls did a great job this week unpacking and ensuring everything was in place. The chalet is looking amazing and it is a great testament to the work that you are able to do in the Alps. I could not have asked for more and would always be happy to recommend Kelling.” - RM

"The team at Kelling were an absolute pleasure to work with, making a significant design contribution to the renovation project and then ensuring that the work was both of the highest standard and completed on time, I would recommend them without hesitation." - RW

"I LOVE IT! I have just arrived having not been here since January and have been given the guided tour. It is all flipping amazing. You're a genius." - EL

“We are always delighted to work with Kelling Designs. Emma is a source of inspiration when it comes to the design, style and functionality of areas and specific rooms. In 2012, it was clearly evident that The Club desperately needed to invest in a refurbishment plan on a number of the key historical rooms. With great care and sympathy for the history of The Club, Emma and her team worked tirelessly over the next 4 years, with a host of architects and tradesmen rejuvinating some extremely tired looking spaces. The reburbishments have not only enhanced the facilities for the Members, but also enabled us to drive a significantly higher level of commercial and corporate business to The Club outside The Members’ sacrosanct periods.” - General Manager - Jockey Club Rooms
