What Our Clients Say

Testimonials

At Decodence, we pride ourselves on delivering exceptional design solutions that exceed our clients’ expectations. Here’s what our satisfied clients have to say in their testimonials about their experience working with us:

Jan Chmiel, 2021 "We benefited from Decodence experience"

"Our challenge was to design a house whilst it was being re-furbished so that we could move in straight away.  Decodence held our hand through the whole design, making us feel totally involved in the decisions and then were very effective in execution working with us and the developer.  We are very happy with the final product. We benefitted from Decodence experience in choosing fixtures and fittings so ensuring we had the best 'technology' and latest product ideas, so future proofing and increasing the overall value of the property. The team’s positivity and understanding of the client journey helped us through a few challenging bends in the road.  It made the whole project enjoyable and was implemented with minimal stress."

Joanna,2020 “Easy to work with"

"Decodence is easy to work with, enthusiastic and full of fantastic design ideas. It was great to pass responsibility over to them, I really enjoyed the process of reviewing styles and the concept design they came up with. For me the biggest advantage was the time that I saved. I have gone from having a room I’m embarrassed about to having a stylish space that will not date, has been an investment and has no doubt increased the value of my home."

James Hettrick, Scottish Borders 2020 "The ultimate professionals"

“From the 'Wrong Red' to the ‘Right Green’ and all stages in between from, assessing who we were and what style reflected that, through the final fix to the dressing of the room, the Decodence team are just the ultimate professionals. In style, on time, in budget, brilliant!”

Mennato Mastrocinque 2019 "i was so happy"

"I first worked with Decodence in 2017 to refurbish my restaurant’s main dining area, and I was so happy with the outcome that I decided to work with them again in 2019 to refurbish another one of our dining areas. We often overlooked some areas in the restaurant, not realising that they could be used to be much more. Decodence helped us to literally create more space and with style! The team are kind and down to earth, which made working with together an even more pleasant experience. The atmosphere set was very welcoming and warm. I very much look forward to working with the team again in the future!"

Jodie Slater, 2019 "Exactly what you wanted, only better. "

I considered myself to have pretty good taste and know what I like, however, Decodence was able to identify specifically why I was drawn to certain schemes and elements that would or wouldn't work on my project. Decodence will not let you spend ineffectively; they will direct you and keep you in check. Having said that, in turn, the end project will be exactly what you wanted, only better. The project is a period property, with that comes planning, conservation, many tradesmen, and complications. At times it has been very challenging and daunting. The Decodence team have been a great sounding board and a very committed advocate of me personally and my project which is a life-long dream.

Kevin O’Brien, 2017 “A Very High Standard”.

“I have worked on several projects with Decodence as a photographer over the last 5 years and all the work I have carried out has been planned, organised and structured to a very high standard before I started. This made my work a lot easier to produce and my deadlines were met with ease. This company operates to a very high standard, and I would not hesitate in referring Decodence to anyone.”

Kate Manzo, 2017 “Amazing”

“When we decided to build a utility room in our garage, we really needed a spatial planner and that was exactly what we got with Elina from Decodence. The final space is amazing - simple, stylish materials that didn't cost a fortune and make the best possible use of the space available.”

Ken Brown, 2017 “Lots of Creative Ideas”

“Design professional with bubbly character and lots of creative ideas that remodelled our new house, complete service from ideas to light shades. I would not hesitate to recommend this design service.”

Mamma Roma Ristorante – Edinburgh Mennato Mastrocinque, 2017 “Absolutely Exceeded My Expectations”

“Decodence refurbished my restaurant and did a wonderful job of it. The work done absolutely exceeded my expectations and I couldn't be happier with the finished product. I will definitely return to Decodence for any future work.“

Michael James, 2017 “Excellent”

“Elina managed and renovated my large house conversion for over almost a year. The job was very complex and involved a range of construction, structural requirements right through to the interior styling and furnishings. She approached the job with a well-structured plan and the project management was excellent to control more than 30 trades onsite at a given time.

Rachel and Ron Scheffer, 2017 “A Wonderful Company to Work with”

“It has been an absolute pleasure and journey working with Elina on the renovation of our 1930's property on the road down to the beach at Bamburgh. It was a fantastic location and a good house, but it was tired. It needed to be restored and updated to make it into the wonderful seaside retreat it is today. Decodence has been a wonderful company to work with - always attentive, knowledgeable, full of ideas (both sensible and creative), and it was a genuine relationship of discovery and design as we worked out what was best for the house and us. We now have a beautiful, practical and wonderful home!”

Peter Giacopazzi – Oblo Bar & Bistro, Eyemouth, 2016 “Thoroughly Pleased and Happy”

“We worked with Decodence in 2016 on two business projects - a refurb of our existing style bar and bistro and also on a conversion of our duplex apartment into a new luxury holiday let. It was clear the company had extensive knowledge and experience of interior design and a definite ability to understand our vision and business needs. We enjoyed working with Elina and her team and were thoroughly pleased and happy with the outcome of their endeavours.”

Michael Howes, 2016 “Five-Star Value for Money”

“Decodence brought unmatchable enthusiasm and energy to both projects it was employed to do. They took our desire to change and manufactured a concept and plan that restructured the use of the space and transformed the style into something that both looks and functions impressively, to say the least. On both occasions, I strongly believe that Decodence has saved us money. This has been due to having so much experience and contacts that allow them to know where to spend, where to save, and how to coordinate tradespeople to save time and money. This has probably covered the cost of the fee I paid Decodence – five-star value for money. I think some professionals and experienced people have great ideas and jobs under their belt. But I think when you work with Decodence you realise the interior design expertise they bring is a different level altogether.”
