DESIGN APPROACH
Nothing makes us happier than designing your perfect business or home environment. It’s all about listening to what you want to achieve, whether this is more customers for your business or more storage in your kitchen. So our design approach is based around listening to you whilst using our skills and creativity to create the perfect design led solution and response. We have a knack for getting to the heart of what clients want, understanding themes and how to create the perfect feel with a balance of traditional and contemporary.
DESIGN PROCESS
We agree a brief before we begin the design process then undertake a research phase. This may be around your competitors or inspirational case studies which will form the basis of our vision for your project. The vision will outline the look and feel which the project will achieve.
During detailed design we present you with draft and detailed specifications as we go through the suggested layouts, materials and looks that we are recommending, we will draft and finalise budgets. We create specifications so that contractors can work from plans including layouts, electrical and lighting layouts, furniture specifications and decorating schedules.
We may pull in some of our collaborators if we need more specialist skills in kitchen and bathroom design, garden design or bespoke manufacturing and surveying.
We’ll be going through all the material samples with you to make sure you love them as much as we do and usually liaising with your contractors to make sure that everything is possible and to ensure a high finish. We may pull in our bespoke soft furnishings makers at this point too to create perfect upholstery and window treatments.
We usually complete the process by fully dressing and styling the space and working with a photographer and videographer to capture its essence for social media as needed. We have contacts with national press if this is beneficial or desirable.
ABOUT
MAIREAD & CO
Mairead & Co Interiors was established in 2019 to collaborate with other creatives and to develop independent projects across North Wales and the rest of the North West.
Since then, we have successfully completed a variety of domestic and commercial interior design projects that showcase Mairead’s eye for detail with a balance between beauty and functionality. Our interiors have quickly built a following for our confident use of decorative patterns and colour and our ability to create relaxed interiors that immediately put everyone at ease whilst adding a touch of surprise, wit and delicacy.
Based in North Wales, we have a rolling portfolio of about a dozen residential design projects in amongst commercial interior design projects at any one time working in various contexts with various collaborative approaches.
ABOUT MAIREAD
Before becoming an interior designer, Mairead had extensive experience in project management, client liaison and budget management built up through working as a CEO of a charity and arts organisation. She worked for over 15 years as a Producer in Contemporary Dance, where she managed choreographers and produced a range of projects from engaging with young people at risk of exclusion, to developing Hip Hop Theatre to producing Dance for the Camera.
After having her first daughter and moving to Anglesey, North Wales, Mairead was ready to completely change her career and life. After the renovation of her own home, friends asked if she would design their homes and businesses and she was delighted by the idea and so she set about retraining in interiors.
