    Excellent design consultation

    Posted 25 April

    Claire has recently provided "In Home Design Consultation" service for my home. After an initial phone call, we exchanged a few emails to help me gather my thoughts and ideas in advance of Claire's home visit. On the visit, we focused in particular on my bedroom and together discussed colour choices, furniture options etc. The 90 minute visit allowed time to review other rooms to get Claire's advice on changes I could make to improve the look/ style/ functionality of each room. Superb advice and ideas from Claire! I would categorically use Claire again and recommend to others!

    Design consultation

    Posted 24 March

    Claire visited us for an hour design consultation as we're removing the chimney breast from our living room and have ideas on what we want but wanted a professional to help us clarify our thoughts! Claire was so friendly and helpful and suggested ideas we hadn't thought of for the sofa placement and moving the radiator which we hadn't considered. We absolutely expect to ask Claire back in future as we work through the rest of the house! Thanks again Claire for your help and ideas!

    The most amazing interior designer

    Posted 25 November 2025

    Working with Claire on our home renovation has been extraordinary. From the very first meeting, she understood our requirements even better than we did and brought it to life with creativity and thoughtfulness that exceeded every expectation. Claire has transformed every single room in our house, each space now feels cohesive, functional, and beautifully tailored to how we live. We can’t recommend Claire highly enough. If you’re looking for someone who will elevate your space with passion, expertise, and a touch of magic, Claire is the designer you want by your side. She is also the loveliest!

    Very satisfied repeat client

    Posted 26 August 2025

    Claire & her team did a fabulous job with my living room earlier this year, so it wasn’t a difficult decision to contact her when I wanted the cloakroom updated. Once again, she understood my brief & came up with a design that suited my needs, taste & budget & used space brilliantly. The work was carried out to a very high standard by a great team of professionals & I am very happy with the result. A word of warning though, if you hire Claire you may become another repeat client; once one room in your home is as you want it, you’ll realise others need an upgrade & you’ll contact her again!

    Design and project management for refurbishing 3 rooms

    Posted 04 July 2025

    Work has just been completed and wow, we could not be more impressed! From the initial consultation Claire really listened to what we needed and came up with some great design ideas that we would never have thought of. Her builders and decorators were all fantastic - professional and reliable with an eye for detail. To say we are thrilled with the result is an understatement, it has really changed the way we feel about our home. Costs were kept to the original quote and works were completed on time. A hassle free experience that has transformed our home. Would not hesitate to recommend.

    Design and project management of living room refurbishment

    Posted 29 May 2025

    Claire and her team of superb and friendly tradespeople did a fabulous job with my living room. I was really impressed with the way that Claire took time to understand my tastes and how the room would be used. She came up with some great ideas to balance old and new. The project was managed very smoothly; Claire was very efficient and communicated brilliantly. Nothing in life is 100% straightforward but the (minor) glitches along the way were managed with sensitivity and humour. I am delighted with the end result and would recommend her without hesitation.

Hi there and welcome to Inspirational Interiors.

I’m Claire and I live in Banstead, Surrey with my daughter and our crazy dog Tod!


I love anything to do with Interiors and let’s face it, what’s not to love and who doesn’t like having a nose around other people’s homes.


From decorating my dolls house as a child, I always knew that this was what I wanted to do.

23 years ago, I took the leap and decided to start my own business, and I haven’t looked back since.


I am super organized in all aspects of my life, which is a bonus as its not all about the fluffy stuff.


There is a huge amount of planning, managing and organizing that goes into every single project, and I love this aspect of my work as much as I love designing.

Whether it's a single room revamp or a comprehensive home transformation my primary goal is to bring joy to all my projects with the aim to ensure that my clients

are totally satisfied.

I have a positive, approachable, and refreshing energy when working with clients and the designs I create.


My projects often include spatial design and all the finishing touches with a strong emphasis on colour, balance, and symmetry, to not only create a great space but to reflect the lifestyle you live.

Design packages range from a 90-minute home consultation to a full design scheme including floor plans, mood boards and samples of all materials.

Should you wish to commission me to project manage the works then I will provide a scope of works and oversee the project to completion.

To create the space of your dreams or for any further information please get in touch.
