Make My House Home
Make My House Home
Interior design studio
For busy people with full heads, and homes that never quite got finished. We design around how you live and how you want to feel. We collaborate with architects, contractors and specialist tradespeople, guiding you through every decision, from structural changes to furniture, fabric and lighting. 75 homes across Norfolk and London, with you, not for you.
Most of my clients are capable, busy people whose heads are already full. It isn't about finding time. It's about mental load, and it's why so many homes never get finished.
You have the Pinterest boards, the half-finished rooms and the furniture that never quite worked, and there's no judgement in that. What's missing is someone calm and steady to pull it all into one clear plan and carry the decisions with you, so it finally feels doable.
You're not behind. You're carrying too much to even start.
"Rebecca was wonderful to work with. She really understood my needs, style and concerns. Her ideas helped bring cohesion to a space that had felt confused for so long! When it came to me choosing fabrics, furniture and paints, her vision was the throughline that had been missing, the space looked great and made sense, finally! I'd recommend Rebecca to anyone, whether the project is big or small."
"Rebecca's approach to interior design is refreshingly different. We love her style, but rather than imposing it onto our space, she prioritises understanding her clients' preferences and guiding them to discover and develop their unique aesthetic."
"Rebecca was brilliant to work with. She took the time to really understand our family and what we needed from the space as well as what we wanted it to look like. The result is better than we hoped and a lot better than we could have managed ourselves! We used all three of the steps Rebecca offers and each one was well worth the money. In particular having Rebecca and her team manage the work took such a weight from us and they did a great job coordinating and communicating with all the moving pieces."
What I believe about homes. Watch on YouTube
Before I became a designer, I spent 14 years in homeware buying and product development. I started at Selfridges, spent seven years at Urban Outfitters, and finished as Head of Buying for Home and Kids at Cath Kidston, leading a team of buyers and designers. It taught me what people are genuinely drawn to, and why.
I've renovated my own homes more than once. I know exactly what I'm asking of my clients, because I've lived it.
I don't have a signature look. I have a signature question: who are you, actually, and how do we make your home say it?
That's why no two of my projects look alike. You won't get my taste. You'll get something that's unmistakably yours.
I look beyond the brief and the Pinterest boards to who you really are and how you want to feel, so your home reflects the whole of you.
You can be real with me. However messy, unfinished or overwhelming it feels, I bring calm and care. It's a partnership, built on kindness both ways.
Changing your home isn't always easy, but I'll make it understandable, and help you feel brave enough to go for it.
Quality you can feel, and a process that respects your time and your space.
A calm, unhurried home visit, all about you and your home. What isn't working, what it could be, and a written plan for what to do next.
How we work, from Your Home Understood through Vision and Curation, and the client dashboard that keeps it all in one place. Watch on YouTube
We're based in Norfolk and work in Norwich and across the county, on everything from single rooms to extensions and full renovations.
Many of our London clients are in North London, around Crouch End, Muswell Hill, Highgate, Haringey and Islington, often reworking a whole floor or renovating the whole house.
Yes. Most of our work is in Norwich and across Norfolk, and in North London around Crouch End, Muswell Hill, Highgate, Haringey and Islington, but we've also worked with clients further afield. Book a discovery call and we'll talk through how we can make it work for you.
Yes. Many clients start with one room, often a kitchen, bathroom or living space, and some go on to do more. We design a single room the same way as a whole home: we start with how you live, then plan the layout, palette and every piece so the room works properly. Design for a kitchen starts from £6,000, a bathroom from £3,500 and other rooms from £2,500. See services & guide pricing.
Every home is different, so full renovations and extensions are priced around your project. All clients start with Your Home Understood (£495). Guide pricing for every stage is on our Services page.
A 90-minute session in your home, in Norfolk or London. I get to know how you live, look at the function, flow and feeling of each room, and send you a written follow-up with your priorities and next steps. It costs £495.
No. I don't have a signature look. I start with who you are and how you live, so no two of my projects look alike. You stay involved in every decision, and the finished home should feel like yours, not mine.
Not at all. Most people come to me with Pinterest boards, half-finished rooms and a feeling rather than a plan. Working out what you want is part of what we do together.
