Karen first designed our daughter's bedroom a few years ago, we then contacted her back for further work in Sept 2023 as we wanted her help in completely redesigning the downstairs of our house. This included the entrance hall, downstairs cloakroom, living room, dining room, conservatory, kitchen and laundry room. Karen is an absolute delight to work with, she spent a lot of time understanding our requirements, taste and ideas, listening and taking into consideration feedback. Karen would then use this information to tailor design ideas around us as a family (including our 2 cats). As you can imagine this project was a massive undertaking, from removing a wall, ripping out everything (multiple skips required) to replastering all walls and ceilings, redoing all the electrics, new floors throughout, new radiators (who knew radiators could be so stylish!). We moved out of the house for a couple of months whilst the bulk of the work was taking place and Karen took control and orchestrated everything. Karen has a catalogue of trusted trades that she works with all of which we were very pleased with and impressed. The organisation that Karen does of multiple trades people is nothing short of exceptional, we don’t know how she does it! Even when things did not go to plan (to be expected with this much work) Karen was unflappable and got any issues sorted. We are absolutely thrilled with how our home looks, when it came to staging and finishing touches Karen takes things to another level, with a very keen eye for even the smallest details. This includes nods to things that we are passionate about and interested in including beautiful books on world travel and exploring which look stunning on a gorgeous coffee table in our new living room. We would not hesitate in recommending Karen to anyone, we are incredibly grateful for all her hard work and dedication, we absolutely love how our home looks and we’re getting loads of WOW comments from friends and family. Thank you Karen, for giving us a home that far surpasses our all dreams!

We engaged Karen to help us redesign our living room and bedroom. We wanted to install a lift between the two rooms and as this was such a big undertaking we wanted expert advice to help us maximise the work. Karen provided just that and much more! From the moment we met, Karen was friendly, approachable and helpful. Karen took the time to listen and understand what was important for us and then worked with us to develop ideas for the room design and in our case managed the project from start to finish. Our project involved multiple trades over a period of many months. Throughout Karen liaised with all trades, keeping them and us informed at all stages. When we were unable to be at home, Karen made time to be available to keep things running to schedule. Karen’s network of proven and trusted trades is invaluable. The best part of working with Karen, has to be the staging day, where Karen brings all the final touches and completes the room(s). We were delighted with the final result, although for our complex build it did take a long time, the results were so worth it. The quality finish and attention to detail is spot on, even down to the choice of ornaments with personal meanings for our family. We now love both our living room and bedroom and wouldn’t change a thing. We would highly recommend Karen to anyone looking for help to transform their interior look and feel, no matter how large or small the project.

Working with Karen Jackman has been an absolute pleasure. She helped us design and recreate our living spaces, and the results are stunning. Karen completely transformed our living room into a modern, cozy haven. She also redesigned our hallway on both floors, giving it a fresh and welcoming feel.
One of the standout projects was my home office and recording studio. As someone who records videos for YouTube, having a functional and aesthetically pleasing space is crucial. Karen not only upgraded the studio but also made it a joy to work in every day.
Karen's expertise extends beyond design; she managed all the logistics effortlessly. From coordinating with contractors to sourcing materials, she handled it all, allowing me to focus on my daily responsibilities without stress.
Our downstairs guest bathroom was also recreated with a unique vibe that complements the rest of the house. Each room now has its own distinct atmosphere, thanks to Karen's keen eye for detail.
I highly recommend Karen Jackman to anyone looking to transform their home. Her professionalism, creativity, and efficiency made the entire process seamless. I will definitely seek her help again for any future projects.

Karen exceeded expectations with this room design - we wanted an animal theme and love the safari mural she recommended. It is a real feature of the room! Our son loves playing in the tipi and the fairy lights around the bed add to the magic. He was so surprised when we revealed the room to him and has already spent many happy hours playing in it. Thank again - so many thoughtful touches went into creating this room for him! spaces that are both beautiful and functional.

We contacted Karen to ask for help in redesigning our difficult L-Shaped Living Room. It was a challenge to come up with a room design that incorporated a living area, dining area and childrens play area but Karen stepped up to the challenge and gave us some great ideas. Many of her suggestions were things we would never have thought of. She helped us to see the room through a different pair of eyes. It was great to have someone else source paint colours and fabric samples - this was ideal as we lacked the time to do this ourselves. Karen has a lovely personalirt and it was a pleasure to work with her.

Fantastic design service. Karen not only created a design for the refurbishment she also recommended the products, furniture and dressed the apartment once decoration was complete. We asked for a coastal theme and Karen delivered above and beyond the brief. The refurbishment is stylish, calm, fresh, sophisticated and coastal.

I recently worked with Karen Jackman Interiors to redesign one of our guest bedrooms and I couldn't be happier with the end result and I think our guests will be amazed at Karen's attention to detail which has truly transformed the space and exceeded our expectations.
The process was smooth and enjoyable, and the end result is a space that feels both luxurious and inviting.

I must admit if we were staying in the area I would be tempted to stay in the house as the changes we have made have resulted in seeing the true potential of the house.
We invested a few thousand pounds because of Karens suggestions (which my husband was reluctant to do!) but after receiving silly offers before we instructed Karen, we have now accepted the full asking price and the estate agent couldn't believe the transformation.

We are absolutely thrilled with the woodland-themed bedroom design for our son! The attention to detail is incredible, from the enchanting forest mural to the bespoke handmade furniture. Our son adores his new room. Thank you for turning our vision into reality with such creativity and expertise. Your design brought the outdoors inside in the most delightful way!
