Testimonials

'“We first met with Jane to discuss a redesign of the ground floor and master bedroom of our newly purchased home. We were a little bit lost and I knew we needed real guidance with regards to the way in which we used the space and a designers eye to inspire us with regards to the look and feel of the finished project. From our first meeting I knew that Jane was the right choice; her wealth of knowledge in kitchen and interior design was clear from the start and we were so impressed by her design concepts from the outset. She thought of every element including layout changes, the functional needs of the kitchen and advising on beautiful furniture, lighting, colours, textures and accessories.

She is a consummate professional and a great listener with regards to what her client’s practical needs and aesthetic preferences are. She was on hand at all times during the implementation phase of the design to offer advice and guidance and never had any issue in making changes as needed. She was also onsite throughout the project always keeping an eye on progress and ensuring that all the work being completed was just as it should be. I felt that we were always in very safe hands with Jane guiding the project and her taste is second to none.

We are absolutely thrilled with the results of Jane’s designs and can’t quite believe that we now have this beautiful home. I would not hesitate in recommending  Jane Higgins Home Design to anyone considering a change in their home and would be delighted to work with Jane again in the future.”

-Sarah King, Shankill, Co Dublin

‘‘Jane was great to work with, we met multiple times to discuss what I wanted from the renovation, she met me at the apartment, and at suppliers and advised me on all decisions. She listened to my ideas and guided me based on her expertise to make smart selections on finishings e.g. flooring, blinds, colour scheme. She has great connections with suppliers (builder, blinds, kitchen) and managed all the logistics, and communications (including snag list) and helped me with my direct communications with them also. Apartment turned out beautifully and was done on time and with minimal stress for me!’’

-Mary Kate Shanahan, Dartry, Dublin 6

“Jane Higgins home design have done an outstanding job on my interior design project. I found Jane herself to be extremely professional and accommodating while maintaining a clear vision for what was best for the project in hand.

Her sense of style and attention to detail is clearly evident, her contacts in the market place are enviable and her source of top quality tradesmen is very reassuring.
I would recommend Jane for any interior design job moving forward and will not hesitate to use her again in the future.”

— Carol Mc Grath, Dartry, Dublin 6

“I engaged Jane to help with a small project in 2016. I have since returned to her for assistance on a number of further projects. Jane is a consummate professional - on each occasion she has followed and executed on the brief while bringing creativity, flair and a depth of knowledge to the project. For me Jane’s attention to detail and her practical approach, having regard to our needs and the reality of family life, gives her an edge. She is always budget conscious and brings with her a veritable stable of talented and committed tradespeople. I look forward to future projects with Jane Higgins Home Design.”

— Sarah Clarkin, Clontarf

“Jane delivered exactly as she said she would do. She dealt with a difficult situation with the owners having views, but living in another city and thus dealing directly with the owners’ parents - in effect politely dealing with four ‘clients’ on the one renovation!
She carried out and agreed the designs for the various rooms being renovated, got alternative quotes from builders and ordered the bespoke bedroom and kitchen cupboards and assisted in the selection of and then the ordering of furniture and equipment.

Our daughter had used Jane (and the same builder) for a refurbishment of her apartment and we plan to use Jane again for another apartment owned by the family and due for refurbishment.”

— Robert Woods, Dublin 2

“Jane Higgins worked with me on decorating my 900ft apartment in south Dublin. Her ideas on how to fill the apartment with lovely colours and custom-built furniture have resulted in a light, airy, stylish but also comfortable space which is a joy to live in. Jane is extremely easy to work with, has amazing contacts in the world of furniture and fittings and I couldn’t recommend her more.”

— Caroline Fine, Glenageary

Jane Higgins of Jane Higgins Home Design was recommended to me as an accomplished designer when I was considering the fitting out of my new-build apartment shell. The results of Jane's skills have been beyond my expectations. She listened thoughtfully to my views and suggestions while, at the same time, using her skills and conceptual designs to make my transition, from house living to apartment living, a delight. Jane took away my initial concerns by sourcing and coordinating suppliers and craftspeople. She has been able to bring her high aesthetics to the task and ensure that it's all completely functional on a day-to-day basis. Having Jane's support and guidance has been a hassle free and enjoyable experience.

-John Bainbridge, Rathgar

“Jane got an absolutely fantastic result with re-designing our dental surgery waiting room, converting it from quite dull to really trendy. Fitting designed shelving into odd shaped alcoves was a great use of limited space. Perfect co-ordination of colours and economical purchases I never would have found. The photos don’t do it justice. Jane is a mass of ideas and most importantly a great talent for putting it all together. Highly recommended! Well done Jane”

— Dr Denis Daly, Rathfarnham Dental Practice

“We enlisted the services of Jane Higgins Home Design for our house. The layout downstairs was very tight, no storage, no flow, no matter where you stood you were in the way, we decided to increase the lower level of the house by adding on an extension. It was important to us that the space ‘worked’ in the best possible way and so we engaged Jane to re-design the layout of the ground floor fully, incorporating a new kitchen, cloakroom and open plan sitting room.

Jane’s plan and use of the space was incredible. She took every aspect of our needs into account and tweaked her plan throughout. We are blown away with how our house turned out, we now have so much storage and the most amazing open plan kitchen / sitting room. Her vast experience in Kitchen Design is evident from the minute you walk in, clever storage units, ‘gadget’s that actually work and enhance your everyday living. Jane was onsite throughout the build and the installation of the kitchen and her attention to detail on the finished look is so apparent, she treated it like it was her own home being done. We are so thrilled with her work and would highly recommend her. Jane, thank you so much for doing such a wonderful job on our house.”

— Sarah & Anthony, Rathfarnham

“I was looking to completely upgrade my city terrace house from kitchen, living room to bedroom and home office. I was fortunate to contact Jane through the internet. From day 1 her advice was spot on! She combines creativity with a very practical approach. The job came in below budget and it was a really stylish finish. I am very proud to have people round and the simple pleasure of living in a bright, modern and comfortable house has made an ocean of difference. One indebted customer! ”

— Stephen Clancy, Phibsborough, Dublin 7.

“Jane is highly professional, creative and fun to work with. I would highly recommend her as an interior designer for small or large projects.”

— Catherine Halbert, Cork

“Jane Higgins proved to be a real gem and we’re absolutely delighted to have this opportunity to recommend her for any proposed home design improvements or suggestions .

For one, Jane proved to be hugely reliable, always keeping in touch, always available, either at the end of the phone or, if required, ready to drop whatever when we were occasionally unsure of some relevant details.

Apart from a wonderful sense of style, Jane has another important quality: she is keenly conscious of staying within budget and when we occasionally overstretched ourselves, she was quick to find an insightful & innovative solution, but never one that compromised on the style and elegance we so desired. The end result? a quite delightful home, one that radiates light, style and urbane sophistication, a home that we’re truly proud of .

Thanks Jane not just for a wonderful result but also a warm and enjoyable encounter!”

— Tom & Sally Morgan, Ballsbridge

“A close friend recommended Jane as someone who would advise on some substantial and challenging home improvements I planned and to say I’m delighted with her work is an understatement! For one, I’m tremendously impressed with the way she managed to transform my limited ideas and uncertainties into gracious elegance, into improvements that included both a practical and functional use of space.

And there was also her utter reliability, her value for money and her quite perseverance in solving difficult and challenging space problems. The end result was a living room, some bedrooms and, especially a bathroom, that reeked of practicality and contemporary classiness.

Jane ‘s awareness of contemporary bespoke design has helped her develop a new and progressive business, one that serves the greater Dublin and neighbouring Leinster region and provides good value for money. Anyway, given my absolute satisfaction with how she managed what I saw as a challenging brief, I’m certain she’ll quickly go on to build a flourishing business. I wish her well and will certainly recommend her to all my friends.

Thanks Jane. Work well done!”
