Family-Centred Space Planning & Interior Design

Online interior design for families planning an extension, major renovation or building their forever home.

Planning an extension, renovation or new build, and wonder how it will all come together?

I help families plan the overall layout, furniture placement, kitchen, storage, colours, materials, bespoke joinery and lighting of their new space before building work begins, so it works for the way they live and looks the way they hoped.

Online interior design, based in Buckinghamshire and working with families across the UK and beyond.

Does this sound familiar?

Perhaps you've had your plans back from the architect and something doesn't feel quite right, but you can't put your finger on what it is. You're excited about the new space but overwhelmed by how many decisions there are, from the kitchen and storage to flooring, colours and lighting.

When you're investing so much into your home, you want to feel confident it will work for your family before building work starts.

How I help

The layout How the rooms connect, how you'll move through the space and where the furniture will go.

The kitchen Where it is positioned, whether there's really room for an island and how it works when the whole family is in there.

Storage A proper home for the buggy, coats, school bags, shoes and everything that we usually want to hide.

How it looks and feels Colours, flooring, finishes and materials, that create a cohesive space and reflect your personal style.

Hi, I'm Nora

I am the designer behind Ease Design Studio with experience in kitchen and bespoke joinery design, so I know what it takes to turn a plan into something that can be built. I also live a busy family life with young children, so I design with real routines in mind.

  • “I recently had the opportunity to work with Nora on my dinner /living space project. Nora was highly responsive, clear with her instructions and engaged throughout the process. Her design concepts were matching my expectations which proved that she fully understood my objectives. Nora is open to feedback and easy to implement changes, if required. I can highly recommend Nora!!”

    Marlena, Lane End

  • “Nora had a natural ability to ask all the right questions to gain a good understanding of what we were looking for. Her design board delivery was professional, practical and easy to navigate with real life links to products that were ready to purchase and within our budget. It was the perfect solution for us when Nora stepped in and offered us the insights we’d been looking for. She has created a cosy living space with the perfect layout in our open plan living room. I would not hesitate to recommend Nora’s interior design services to anyone.”

    Raj, Windsor

  • “I absolutely loved Nora’s ideas and design, the colours are spot on and now I can envision how the room will look like. Nora listened well and managed to put on paper what we actually need and want.”

    Abigail, Bledlow Ridge

  • “Nora was friendly and professional and listened intently to my ideas whilst offering her own expertise. She captured our thoughts and ideas perfectly and have allowed us to complete the finishing touches that we simply didn’t have the time to pull together without her. It’s everything and more what I hoped for.”

    Claire, Marlow

  • “I can highly recommend Nora, after just one consultation I was given so much inspiration and many uplifting ideas for my living space. Some of which I set to work on immediately and I am so grateful for Nora’s creative input, I feel like I have a new house. The changes that she suggested were subtle but made a big difference.”

    Natalie, Marlow Bottom

  • “I was really struggling to find a way forward with refurbishing my home. I liked lots of different styles and colours and my confusion led me not wanting to move forward to creating a space that I loved. Nora gave me a steer on my colours and design and gave me tips how to enhance features and create the impression of balance and style.”

    Nikki, Marlow

  • “I strongly recommend Nora for anyone who is decorating or refurbishing their home. Nora helped us design a dressing room. She took the time to understand our needs, style and budget then gave us really good practical ideas and suggested suppliers too.”

    Shereen, Marlow
