By Nicola Manning Design
Our clients for this project are a professional couple living in the inner city. Their townhouse is spread over four floors and has three bathrooms, all of which needed updating as they were very plain and tired. We were briefed to design three bathrooms which linked in style but have their own personalities. The ensuite bathroom on the top floor is filled with light and we used dark tiles with accents of warm timber and aged iron plumbing fittings. The other two bathrooms had no or little natural light so we used a lighter version of the same tile. There is an idustrial edge to these bathrooms, with textured, large scale tiles and the dark tapware.
Our clients said "I never would have thought to work with an interior designer. My husband suggested it and boy am I glad we did! Nicola is amazing as you will see from the before and after's below. She has such vision and thinks outside the box, but also works in with your vision making the process a fun and high value one.
Nicola is well connected in terms of tradies and she is very fussy with their work (which I love by the way) as the workmanship is just beautiful. We love our new home!
Full paint, carpet through out - wardrobe systems, air conditioning and 3 sparkly designer bathrooms - and our black ensuite with the wet room......out of this world! Hire Nicola - she is amazing!"

We take a "no surprises" approach to our project partnership, with clear communication and a proven design process, focusing on three foundation pillars; the design, the budget and the timeline. We feel so grateful to work with a range of wonderful clients on their homes, apartments, beach houses and commercial properties.
After nearly twenty years in the interior design business, we know great design can not only lift the value of your home, but also enhance the quality and enjoyment of your life. Many people find it difficult to verbalise or explain exactly what they are visualising. Our clients really appreciate that we can take their ideas and help them bring them to fruition.
