Recommended Interior Designer/Project Manager

My husband and I are nearing the end of a project with a local interior designer/project manager and we would highly recommend her. Her name is Mariliz and her business is called House 2 Home Design (website isn't live yet though). Mariliz has over 12 years' experience of both her own property development and interior designing and project managing build and renovation projects for clients. Mariliz designed two very tricky rooms for us: a bathroom that involved moving walls, reinforcing floors, dealing with RSJs and knocking through and a downstairs utility room full of tanks, pipes, boiler etc that was not easy to design at all - especially given my obsession with squeezing as much storage as possible into a room! Her design work is excellent and she came up with several ideas that really made a huge difference to the rooms, and she also pushed us outside of our comfort zone a bit with ideas we would never have thought of on our own.


Mariliz does both the interior design piece of a project (and will do this as a standalone project) and she also offers project management and build supervision services, using her own team of tradespeople (who are excellent).


Because Mariliz has developed property herself she really knows the ins and outs of a build and in particular, timing. We have relied very heavily on her for this and she has given us excellent advice throughout. She has spent many hours on site dealing with our team and her being so local (SE21) has really helped with this. Mariliz is calm, measured and deals well with the many stakeholders involved in her projects. She is also a complete perfectionist and has a very and a totally "can do" attitude. She refuses to take no for an answer if there is a way of achieving something on a project so as not to compromise the design. We would highly recommend Mariliz and House 2 Home Design.

    • I’m in exactly the same position.  They badgered me for ages to have a water meter fitted.  I’d prevaricated simply because it’s so tedious dealing with these people but eventually gave in when the communications became increasingly frequent and aggressive and it was done in March 2023. I just assumed I’d then be charged on actual consumption but I received an email this morning with details of the latest price increase and it said, “Since your property doesn’t have a water meter, your bill is calculated in advance based on fixed rates rather than water usage”.  I’m sure they’ve realised I’d be paying much less if they billed me on actual consumption but have not gone out of their way to inform me.  Trawling through their website, for me anyway, is an unutterably tedious chore, but I think I’ll now have to work up the energy over the weekend to pick up the phone on Monday morning and have a word with them.  
    • Great Service again from Andy.  Contacted him with a couple of issues with toilet cistern and shower.  He came over and sorted it all out quickly. Good advice given, reasonable charge for the jobs.  Highly recommend Andy!   
    • Just seen this.  Your post was a bit unnecessary.  I was simply responding to the previous post that children should be cycling on the pavement. But as you say I know shed loads about transport.  Not to the depths that some go down to the minutia.  Some call me the space cowboy.  Some call me the gangster of love.  I think of myself as the people's poet.  You have to laugh at yourself. Echoing what DKH said, we weren't there, you don't know the parent was making a snide remark, My favourite Dulwich parent story was a few years ago were friends when we were in the Herne garden a few years ago, who let their children run riot.  Bless.  One decided to turn the hose on spraying some poor drinkers.  Now most of us would be mortified, but the friends welcomed their child's creativity.
