I can’t exaggerate what a great experience it was working with Jo on our new sitting room and a bedroom. We’d never used a designer before, and I didn’t know what to expect. Frankly I was slightly sceptical Jo would find a way of merging Matthew’s and my styles (him tending to arts and crafts and mid-century; me: goodness knows, but floral!). But what a triumph! We both just love the beautiful rooms we created together. 6 months on and I still pause and admire them. Jo has such an open, generous manner. She suggested, listened, responded, gently shifted us away from less ‘considered’ ideas… And the results make us really happy and comfortable – and quite proud – And what else could you hope for from a home?

‘ Your advice was enormously helpful on the day – I’ve already got a few quotes from joiners as you were very persuasive. Your advice liberated me from twiddling around the edges looking for some ‘original’ solution.’

‘ We are delighted we commissioned Jo/The Curious House to help put the finishing touches on our new extension project. We would still be floundering over colour, fabric and furnishing decisions if Jo hadn’t rescued us with some creative design boards, helping us to envisage a variety of options for the space. Jo patiently helped us to refine the look we were after, and from then on it all came together very quickly from the team smoothly handling orders for us to making up our beautiful blinds. We have had many compliments on the finished design, which is all credit to Jo! ’

‘I realised that the only parts of the house I really love are the parts Jo has helped me with – so I keep calling her back in to do more! ‘
