“We saw an advert for Sabella in our local Parish Magazine and decided to ring and make an appointment. Joanna proved to be a very delightful, competent person and quickly knew what we wanted to create. We are thrilled with the colour schemes and she came up with ideas we wouldn’t have thought of ourselves. She took away a lot of the hassle that is always involved in these schemes. We would have no hesitation in recommending Sabella.”
We didn’t have a clue where to start when we decided our house needed redecorating to make it our home. I was so pleased we asked Sabella to help. Working with Joanna was a pleasure, she was quickly able to assess our requirements, personality, style and taste and incorporate them into a fabulous design for each room while keeping our budget in mind.
The contractors used by Sabella to implement Joanna’s vision were all extremely professional in their approach and we felt very comfortable to leave them in our home unaccompanied.
We are proud of our home and would not hesitate to recommend Sabella Interiors.
The days Joanna joined us to host our members’ events were informative and enjoyable and very well organised by her and her team. Our members gave wonderful feedback about Joanna – ‘She was so personable’, ‘Relaxed and interesting’ – and we would certainly agree with them all. It was a pleasure to work with her and we look forward to further events in the future.
“Our experience of Sabella has been very positive; the colour, design and fabric chosen by Sabella have come together to create a wonderful timeless look which fits perfectly with a busy room, yet remaining a calm and relaxed space. The quality of work undertaken and the attention to detail has been to a very high standard.”
Joanna and her team are organised and professional and at the same time, provide a very personal service. Joanna has a quiet and charming determination to open your mind to many different ideas, while still respecting your individual taste. She worked tirelessly to find options for me and her guidance was invaluable, particularly the fabric boards and visit to fabric houses.
The quality of Sabella Interior’s work and attention to detail is exceptional. Delivery is timely and Joanna’s patience with my indecisions incredible! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sabella.
What started as an initial commission to help redesign our master bedroom has now, one year later, given us a transformed home. From lighting to flooring to a complete redecoration, Joanna has held our hand throughout the whole process. We have been so impressed with her talent and dedication, and are absolutely thrilled with how our home now looks.
Joanna quickly got to know us and when it came to the curtains and soft furnishings in our family room, her first presentation to us was quickly accepted, as the fabric and colours were just ‘us’.
I am a very happy customer! Sabella has worked with me over the last two years to dress every window in my new home. Joanna has been incredibly patient, invaluable in her advice and variety of options, and meticulous in quality and detail. I love every fabric, finish and accessory. Joanna gives an amazing service and as important, is fun to work with. Please don’t hesitate to work with Sabella.
Joanna is an extremely gifted young lady who can enter a room, immediately see what needs doing and know exactly how to put things right. She will listen to your needs and suggest slight (or in my case, big) alterations and it’s uncanny how Joanna always knows what is right for you. I am so pleased that, with her help and advice, my house is now a home that I can relax in and enjoy.
We employed Joanna Harvey of Sabella Interiors to assist us with a pair of curtains to dress a set of bi-fold doors. This was a challenging brief due to the size required and Mrs Harvey was very professional and assisted us in creating a window dressing that provides the finishing touch to our extension. She worked within our budget and sourced appropriate fittings to hang the curtains, which had unusual dimensions. We are very pleased with the result.
We bought our house in 2000, while we were living in Tokyo. When we returned in 2005, we had big plans for it. We engaged architects, submitted plans and started work in 2007. Then in true Grand Designs style, I became pregnant just as we moved into the finished extension.
I lost all interest in the house and realised I needed someone to hold my hand and guide me. Joanna rekindled all the excitement I’d lost and helped reinstate my vision for a beautiful house. She’s given me back my confidence and the completed dining room looks stunning. Joanna is consummately professional and can work with people on all levels. She’s an incredibly kind, generous lady, and I cannot recommend her enough.
When we got stuck trying to decide what to do with our lounge and lobby, Joanna came to the rescue. Taking the time to get to know our tastes and preferences, she came up with a plan, brought us samples and took us to visit designers. Joanna provided us with a unique and personal service.
Considering decoration, curtains, lighting, pictures, furniture and accessories, Joanna has an uncanny eye for colour, texture and how things will work together. She is also very diplomatic and caring and will lead you through a range of alternative ideas. With heaps of patience and great attention to detail, Joanna will help turn your house into a beautiful home. She is also great at keeping a project moving and ensuring everything is completed. We have ended up with a home we are delighted with but would never have created without Joanna’s help!
“We contacted Joanna and her team to seek advice on some interior design solutions for our home. Joanna listened carefully to what we hoped to achieve and in return delivered practical and workable suggestions. We were extremely impressed with her attention to detail, impeccable time keeping and delivering on time – so rare in today’s world.”
“It is with great pleasure that we recommend Joanna Harvey of Sabella Interiors. She is a most friendly and delightful lady, very creative, but always listening to our own ideas.
She is a great communicator and had tremendous patience with us, as we seemed to constantly change our minds. She provided invaluable guidance in choosing colour schemes, fabrics, lighting choices and accessories. She was also painstaking in her approach to organising the hanging of paintings and positioning of ornaments.”
We are totally happy with the results Joanna achieved and cannot recommend her highly enough. She was a delight to work with”.
