Interior Designer Reviews

Kelly was recommended to my wife and me by our friends, who had nothing but good things to say about her. After meeting several IDs, we knew Kelly was the one we wanted to work with. She understood what we were looking for and helped bring our vision to life while elevating it with her own ideas. She has a great eye for detail and was always on the ball throughout the renovation process. Right up until the handover, Kelly made sure every detail was taken care of and that we were happy with the final result. As first-time homeowners going through a renovation, my wife and I really appreciated how she made the entire journey smooth and fuss-free. I'm really glad we chose Kelly and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for an interior designer!

Haiying is very good in project management! She ensured all works are completed within the timeline planned. She updates us on our Reno progress and ensure rectification is done promptly. She is also flexible and able to help come up with suggestions so we can keep within our budget. The final result is similar to the render, just like how we imagined it to be! I would engage her again for our next home. Great job!

Really appreciate Rock's attention to our home and his ideas! He was very patient throughout the whole renovation process and always gave us a listening ear. He took the time to understand what we wanted and offered creative, practical suggestions that really improved our space. Very responsible and most definitely very easy to communicate with. We felt well taken care of from start. Thank you so much, Rock!

This review is written especially for designer Jacqueline, whom I had the pleasure of liaising with during my home renovation planning. Although I eventually decided not to proceed with her proposal due to my own personal preferences and considerations, I would like to recognise and commend her for her professionalism, competence and dedication throughout our interactions. From the very beginning, it was evident that Jacqueline is an experienced designer with a strong understanding of her craft. She demonstrated a sound knowledge of what could and could not be done, taking into consideration HDB’s renovation regulations as well as the type and age of the property. I appreciated how she was able to provide clear and practical guidance, which gave me greater confidence in understanding the possibilities and limitations of renovating my home. What particularly impressed me was her ability to prepare a full-house rendering incorporating my preferred colour palette and present it during our second meeting. This allowed me to visualise her proposed design direction and better understand the thought process behind her ideas and the overall flow of the space. I recognise that producing such detailed renderings at such an early stage requires considerable time, effort and commitment, and I genuinely appreciated her willingness to invest so much into helping me envision my future home. I am truly grateful for the thought, time and dedication Jacqueline put into preparing her proposal. While we ultimately did not move forward together, that does not take away from the positive experience I had working with her or the appreciation I have for the effort she put in. Her willingness to help homeowners visualise the potential of their homes is something worth recognising. I wish her every success in her future projects and hope she continues to find clients who connect with her design approach and appreciate the value she brings to the table.

I’m writing this review based on my pleasant and positive experience interacting with designer Matthew Chew. Although I eventually decided not to proceed with his proposal due to my own personal preferences and considerations, I would still like to commend him for his professionalism, sincerity and proactive approach throughout the process. After our first meeting, where he took the time to understand my needs and requirements, Matthew continued to engage with me while preparing the design plan and quotation. He would occasionally share photos of tiles he came across that he thought I might like, or simply to get a better sense of my preferences. I really appreciated these thoughtful gestures, as they showed that he was genuinely invested in understanding my vision and exploring ideas that might suit my needs. This level of attentiveness stood out to me, especially knowing that interior designers often have multiple projects to manage concurrently. I recognise Matthew’s dedication to his craft and genuinely appreciate the time, thought and effort he put into preparing the plan and quotation. While we ultimately did not move forward together, I walked away with a positive impression of him and am grateful for the pleasant experience. I believe Matthew’s sincerity, thoughtfulness and willingness to go the extra mile are qualities worth recognising. I would be happy to recommend him to anyone looking for an interior designer who takes the time to understand their needs and approaches his work with genuine care.

I engaged Decor 8 for my HDB renovation, which commenced on 20 July 2026. As of 13 October 2026, nearly three months later, the renovation remains at the wet works stage, with substantial contractual works incomplete and rectification still ongoing. My experience has raised serious concerns about the firm’s integrity, transparency, workmanship, quality control and project management. 1. Serious Worker Misconduct and Hygiene Incident Human waste and toilet paper were discovered in the master bathroom wastewater floor trap during renovation works. This was an unacceptable incident in my own home, requiring professional cleaning and extensive rectification, including hacking and reinstatement of affected areas. While Decor 8 subsequently undertook rectification, the incident caused significant disruption and raised serious concerns about worker conduct and site supervision. 2. Serious Concerns About Integrity and Transparency During hacking works arising from the worker hygiene incident, I discovered that tile pieces had been used to construct a wall extension where hollow blocks had been specified and quoted. What concerns me most is not simply the difference in construction materials, but that this substitution was never proactively disclosed to me. The discrepancy came to light only because an entirely separate incident required hacking that exposed the internal construction. Had that not occurred, I might never have known that the agreed specifications had not been followed. Although Decor 8 subsequently rectified the wall, this does not address my fundamental concern about integrity and transparency. As a homeowner, how can I be confident that other concealed works have been carried out according to the agreed specifications when this discrepancy was discovered only by chance? Overall — A Substantial Loss of Trust These are only two of several issues I have encountered, but they are the most concerning because they raise fundamental questions about Decor 8’s worker conduct, integrity and quality control. While I acknowledge the corrective works undertaken, my concern extends beyond rectification. Significant issues were discovered and pursued by me rather than proactively identified through the firm’s supervision and quality-control processes. Nearly three months after commencement, the renovation remains at the wet works stage, with substantial contractual works yet to commence. The repeated disruption, additional hacking and prolonged delays have significantly undermined my trust in Decor 8’s integrity, workmanship and project management. I am sharing my experience so prospective homeowners can make an informed decision.

It was an amazing experience working with Stephen from Carpenters tradehub21. We have went to around 10 IDs and decided to work with him. He is easygoing and accommodating yet display professionalism and expertise in advising on the aesthetic and also functionalities. Providing options and alternatives during renovation hiccups. He has been very prompt and helpful. It was a really nice experience working with him. It was a smooth renovation better than I expected

Nico is very patient and obliging, when any changes need to be done. Any time easily connected. Give clear explaination. Very committed to his work. Very satisfied with the floor renovation and kitchen cabinet.

This is my first time using a ID for my renovation. Without much expectation and a small budget, I choose Darwin interior since it’s been in the industry for years and had quite a numbers of good reviews. The ID assigned to me was Vincent New (yup it’s not a spelling mistake, his surname is that). My first impression was he is awfully young but well…everyone starts somewhere so let’s go with this person and see where we end up. Vincent was very organized and do the standard protocol like knowing your expectations, what you are looking for and providing the mood board to ensure we are on the right starting point. Often in our discussion I tends to be “all over the place” but Vincent was very patient and focused and often ensure we finish up what we set out to accomplish. During the renovation, he will provide timely updates and any issue I spotted he already has an answer or solution to it 👍🏼 Any confirmation he needed for the material chosen, he will put it into a rendering to ensure you are aware of the final result. You might think that this is standard procedure but I do hear that some ID skipped this step. Am glad that Vincent did not take the shortcut since I needed a lot of visual aid to help me to make decision. Am very pleased with the final result and the cost saving solution that Vincent has provided along the way helps to keep the renovation within my budget. All in all, I find the whole journey pretty effortless as all I needed to do is to share my thoughts and making informed decision. Highly recommended Vincent New @ Darwin interior Ubi branch.

Found The Enso through Facebook, and we’re really glad that we got to meet Kenny from The Enso. We didn’t do a whole-house renovation; instead, we engaged The Enso for a bedroom storage wardrobe. From our very first meeting to the completion of the work, Kenny was always patient, helpful and responsive. He took the time to understand what we wanted and was willing to discuss and adjust the design according to our needs. What we really appreciated was his professionalism and attention to detail. Throughout the whole process, Kenny kept us updated and was always approachable whenever we had questions or wanted to make changes. There was no hard selling, and we never felt pressured to make decisions. A special thanks also goes to Kenny’s carpenter team. They worked in a very systematic and organised manner, kept the work area clean and tidy, and completed the installation with minimal mess and noise. We really appreciated how considerate and professional they were, especially while working inside our home. The completed wardrobe turned out really well and, most importantly, it fits our needs and the space perfectly. We’re very happy with the workmanship and the overall experience with The Enso. In fact, after seeing our new bedroom storage, my siblings were impressed with the design and workmanship too, and they are now interested in getting a quotation from Kenny for their own projects. A big thank you to Kenny and the whole team at The Enso for making the entire process smooth and hassle-free. We’re glad we found you through Facebook and would definitely recommend The Enso to anyone looking for a reliable and professional renovation/interior team!

Cindy is a very friendly designer and always ready to discuss new ideas w owners. She is professional in her work and knows the ID work very well. Great experiences.

Renovating a home can be stressful, but [Designer Name - Zac Kwek made the whole process smooth and worry-free. He went above and beyond by coordinating seamlessly with my self-sourced vendors to keep everything strictly on schedule I especially loved receiving constant video updates of the site progress—it gave me total peace of mind. Zac Kwekwas super responsive (even replying quickly while on annual leave!) and provided excellent technical advice on carpentry measurements and layout details
