MG Interior Design

I hired Maggie to help with the design of our kitchen and to settle some artistic differences between me and my husband! She was fantastic at both. She came up with a range of original suggestions, which we would never have thought of.

Maggie Greening of MG interior Design recently provided a complete interior design service on our house in Somerset. With 7 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms and several other reception rooms, this was a very big project that involved rewiring, re-plumbing and complete re-decoration. Maggie was able to advise not only on room design, furniture and soft furnishings, but also provided invaluable knowledge about electrics, lighting, plumbing and all the "hardware" of the project too. We felt extremely comfortable with her at the helm, dealing with workmen, planning and design and effectively being a project manager for all the interiors. She was always calm, unflappable, rational and professional - and very good at gauging our needs and requirements throughout the project. She is very talented at sourcing pieces, advising on lighting, paints, fabrics and her knowledge about the industry is highly extensive. I would not hesitate in recommending her to anyone who needs help, be it a large project or a small one - she is excellent.

Maggie gave me the confidence and inspiration to change things. She put together a great team of people to carry out the work and kept them on track. Could not have done it without her help, would certainly recommend her.

Our tired and dated lounge/dining room needed a complete overhaul, but we had no idea where to start. The best thing we did was to contact Maggie who responded to every email promptly and addressed any queries we had. Maggie was so patient with us and guided us through the many choices that were available and the end result was fantastic. She completely grasped our brief and we now have a room that we all love to be in. We can't wait to work with Maggie again on other rooms in our home and would highly recommend MG Interior Design.

When I purchased a Victorian cottage in need of complete modernisation, I did a web search for an interior designer in the area. There were several to choose from but Maggie's website stood out. I liked her fresh, simple, uncluttered design and approach. Maggie lived up to her website. I've never had a property completely refurbished before and was feeling somewhat overwhelmed but she guided me in all aspects of the work, including the order in which to get the work done. As a busy working professional, I didn't have time to do in-depth background work or consider the layout of rooms and designs to go for. Although I knew I wanted a modern, uncluttered feel, I didn't have any stand out inspiration and had few creative ideas. I needn't have worried because Maggie came up with an abundance of ideas and suggestions and provided samples and draft designs which enabled me to visualise the finished result and make informed decisions. She considered the overall flow and style of the house and suggested opening up the doorway from the dining room to the kitchen and moving a doorway from the dining room to the office. This has made the space appear bigger and flow better. The idea would never have occurred to me to do this. Maggie recommended excellent trades people who she has tried and tested many times so I had peace of mind. By using Maggie I have been able to avoid expensive and time consuming mistakes. She has years of experience and knows just about all of the pit falls and bonuses involved which she explains to you. I like that Maggie can be as involved as much or as little as you want her to be. You have the choice to have her do individual tasks or the whole lot. Maggie gets things going without delay. If were all down to me, I'd still be dithering to this day! Our working relationship has covered a long time span as I gather the next round of funds for more work. I thoroughly recommend the services of MG Interior Design.

My home was a lovely but tired Edwardian house in north London. I was looking for an interior designer to advise, update and design. I looked at several designers and chose Maggie - an excellent decision. Nothing was too much trouble. She advised on colour schemes, curtains soft furnishings . she co-ordinated with all the workmen. She completely redesigned my bathroom and sympathetically updated every room. She also deigned the front garden area - I have had many compliments from passers by. The result is a lovely quietly luxurious comfortable home. I would recommend her to everyone. I am hoping that she has time to revamp my back garden soon.

An inheritance led me to consider decorating all 3 floors of my town house: but, what colour? Choosing MG Interior Design from their website was the only time I have done that, rather than follow the recommendations of friends. I was not disappointed. Maggie took the necessary time to get to know me and my likes and dislikes. She helped with colours, flooring, fabulous fabrics, and by introducing me to 13 different varieties of tradesmen (all professional, helpful and friendly), and by project managing. The result? An utterly transformed home beyond my wildest dreams. I warmly recommend MG Interior Design.

We worked with MG Interior Design on the makeover/update of our lounge/dining room. Having worked with interior designers before we choose Maggie because, right from the start, she asked searching questions and quickly grasped our needs and aims. Throughout she was very aware of, and stuck to the budget limit. Her approach was friendly, professional and confident. Maggie was a good listener, had a nice, gentle sense of humour and displayed a lot of patience in dealing with our questions; e-mails were responded to within 24 hours. She never forced her ideas on us and every decision, whether colour of paint or choice of furniture, was a joint effort. Maggie is very creative and her eye for detail was incredible. It did not take long before we came to rate and trust her judgement highly. The whole process went very smoothly indeed. We looked forward to every meeting with Maggie: they were always productive and pleasant. She is to be congratulated for making the whole experience very satisfying and thoroughly enjoyable. We have no hesitation in recommending Maggie highly.

I am so impressed with Maggie on so many fronts. She is at all times professional and reliable: answering emails quickly; keeping to deadlines and budgets; chasing up suppliers and keeping up with the latest trends and products. She is also really easy to get on with and responsive to who I am and want and need making the whole process of furnishing rooms pleasurable and relaxed. And she is very talented, able to create just the look I was after and I am so pleased with the furniture, fabric and accessories they are unusual, sympathetic to the surroundings and make the very best of the space available. I was so pleased I was able to use Maggie at work for a project to furnish our new school chapel.

Maggie Greening oversaw the redesign of our kitchen, the refurbishment of our sitting room and is currently involved in a makeover of our bedroom, hall and staircase. We are delighted with the final result: Maggie made some terrific design suggestions and has a great eye for colour and design. She has a wonderful manner managing to leave you feeling good about your home; she listens well and returns with interesting interpretations; Maggie came back with fantastic fabrics that we would never have been able to source without her help. In terms of budget, Maggie has made suggestions about where we can save money and about where certain statement pieces can be used to maximum effect. I am particularly pleased with the way the house has a more 'joined up' feel; the colour palette continues throughout and our home feels more cohesive. I recommend her without reservation.

I recently hired Maggie of MG Interior design to come up with a interior scheme for my lounge and living/dining room. Maggie listened intently to my ideas then devised a scheme that was tasteful and stylish. She was sensitive, yet persuasive and steered me away from ideas that wouldn't work on a functional level, to ideas that I loved even more that were far more practical for a family of 4. She taught me that a family home is for 'living in' not just for 'looking at' and it can still be beautiful as well as functional, so I didn't feel like I'd compromised, just 'seen the light'! Her patience, understanding and imagination made the process exciting and enjoyable. She saved me a fortune - time I would have spent researching and trying to bring all my ideas together, I spent working and earning, and Maggie's expertise was the best investment so far, from choosing fabrics and wallpapers, to how to position and hang my art. I had preconceived ideas about using Interior Designers - I couldn't have been more wrong in this case. The whole project was stress free thanks to them.
