Here are some of the nice things people have said about working with Room to Bloom…

“Our daughter is over the moon with her new room”

Having worked with Ursula before, I didn’t hesitate to ask her help again when one of our daughters needed a room of her own. Ursula converted a guest bedroom into a stylish little girl’s room, designing it with the rest of our home in mind. She found a perfect “special bed” for our daughter and presented her ideas in great detail so it was easy to make decisions. She also organised the installation of the design from start to finish and styled the room beautifully. Our daughter is over the moon with her new room and she loves her bed… thank you Ursula!

“Helped us to create something completely unique”

Ursula has been utterly invaluable to us. Her vision and taste have been incredible. We had an idea of what we wanted for the girls’ rooms and she listened to us carefully and helped us to create something completely unique, twice over! We are so pleased with the results, as are the children! They absolutely love their rooms.

“Stepping into the rooms never fails to make me happy”

I contacted Ursula after finding her website and falling in love with some of the stylish children’s rooms she had designed. We were looking to repurpose our previous guest room into a nursery for our youngest daughter, and also redecorating our 3-year-old daughter’s room from a nursery into a ‘big girl’ room. I was keen for Ursula to help us make the most of out the two rooms in terms of space, and create two beautiful yet practical spaces that would work for both sleep and play, and would last for a little while. Ursula instantly found the right bed for our oldest daughter’s room, and whilst it wasn’t a style I would normally go for, it instantly gave the room a massive lift.

Both girls’ rooms have turned out beyond expectations! Stepping into the rooms never fails to make me happy, and whilst different they both comes across as stylish, they are also very practical and cosy.

Working with Ursula has been a really great experience, and I learnt so much in terms of how to think of colour schemes, grouping of objects and adding decorative touches that have such an impact on the overall look and feel.

Ursula is so friendly and a pleasure to work with, and she was great at picking up what we were (and weren’t!) looking for. As for the project itself, Ursula clearly communicated her availability and gave feedback on realistic timeframes, which was really helpful for planning purposes.

“Fantastic experience from start to finish”

Working with Ursula was a fantastic experience from start to finish. She helped us make sense of a room that had long defied us – and with a few structural decisions, turned it from an imposing large room into a cosy, playful, imaginary children’s bedroom. Her attention to detail, the measured-out floor plans and carefully considered ideas really set her apart from other interior designers we’ve worked with. Our daughter absolutely loves her room and we couldn’t be happier with the result!

“I feel happy walking into my son’s room”

Ursula worked with us to design a new bedroom for our son and an ensuite bathroom for our children to share. We are so pleased with the result – our son’s room is bright, spacious, practical, comfortable and fun. Ursula made fantastic suggestions that we would never have thought of ourselves. She was patient when we took a long time to make decisions, and offered a gentle challenge at times to make sure we got things right. Everything in the room just seems to work – she has a great understanding of what kids need, and how to create a space that is both beautiful to look at and relaxed enough to hang out in. Most importantly, our son has a room in the house that feels like ‘his’. We look forward to working with Ursula on our daughter’s room!

“My daughters’ rooms are gorgeous to behold”

I had long been an admirer of Ursula’s when I reached out to her for help with my daughters’ rooms. We were moving country and I wanted my daughters’ bedrooms to be warm and welcoming as we settled into our new life abroad. From the beginning, Ursula seemed to have an innate understanding of who my daughters were and what their rooms needed. In just a few months Ursula transformed their bedrooms into gorgeous spaces that were uniquely theirs. Ursula has an enviable aesthetic, and extraordinary attention to detail. My daughters’ rooms are gorgeous to behold, but even more importantly, they are spaces my girls interact with, create in, and retreat to. I could not be more pleased with their rooms, and I have enjoyed every moment working with Ursula.

“A room that is calm, fun and suited to her personality”

Ursula has created a room concept for our daughter Emma that is calm, fun and suited to her personality and hobbies/ preferences. Ursula is perceptive, creative, really helpful in navigating through choices that can be overwhelming and extremely generous. We are based in Germany, so we worked remotely, Ursula has made herself available to answer questions and has found ways to present her concept and ideas in the appropriate medium so that Emma and I could think things through. We have enjoyed our collaboration with Ursula and look forward to our next project together – our boys´ room.

“An amazing eye for stylish yet kid friendly pieces”

Ursula designed our son’s bedroom for the second time and the finished result is excellent. Ursula has an amazing eye for stylish yet kid friendly pieces. Ursula knows that the room has to be functional, fun but also stylish and she balances all of these elements perfectly. Ursula took care of all aspects of the room design from original design/concept through to supplying pieces.

“Benjamin (and us!) will enjoy his room for many years to come”

I really enjoyed working with Ursula in creating a happy and calm bedroom for our son, Benjamin. She is very easy to communicate with and fully takes on board your likes/dislikes and nothing is ever too much trouble. Ursula really understood the brief that I gave her and managed to work with a space which was already half done! She was able to use her imagination and recommend furniture and accessories which have really softened the room and have complimented the existing pieces. Everyone LOVES Benjamin’s bed! I know that Benjamin (and us!) will enjoy his room for many years to come.

“The result is amazing”

Working with Ursula was a real eye-opening experience. We had seen on her website pictures of rooms she had decorated that looked beautiful and this was our first experience with an interior designer. She picked a lot of items that we would never have thought of, she taught us how things go well together and how to make a room look good. It was great working with Ursula and the result is amazing. The kids’ rooms always look great regardless of how messy they are. The materials and objects Ursula has picked are beautiful and we will keep them for a long time.

“The room, however messy, always looks beautifully stylish”

After renovating our house I had run out of ideas for our daughter’s bedroom and needed help! After seeing Ursula’s portfolio I knew she would be the perfect designer to create a beautiful, calm and interesting room for our 3 year old daughter, a space that she wanted to be in and was proud of. It has certainly been the case, she loves to take her friends to see her room and play. She has a wonderful snug bed area that she loves to get into and I am happy because the room, however messy, always looks beautifully stylish.

“We really appreciated the time she took to get to know us as a family”

We’ve loved working with Ursula. We really appreciated the time she took to get to know us as a family and how she used that to come up with solutions that worked for us; nothing felt ‘off the peg’ it felt totally customised for us. She also found the perfect balance between taking our input and not being shy about challenging us when she thought our ideas wouldn’t work. I was also impressed with how she managed cost – knowing where and when it made sense to invest and where it wasn’t needed. And of course, the output looks fantastic! We will definitely use her again and would highly recommend her.

“Without doubt the most beautiful room in the house”

After getting Ursula to design our son’s room there was no question who we were going to ask her to do our daughter’s nursery. It’s now without doubt, the most beautiful room in the house.

“Instrumental in helping us create our dream nursery”

Ursula has been absolutely instrumental in helping us create our dream nursery. She has offered us a very flexible way of working with a perfect balance of inspirational recommendations while maintaining her point of view. She has helped us shape our vision and guided us throughout this very special process of preparing to welcome our first baby.

“We wanted to use an interior designer to get the best use out of the space”

We are very grateful to Ursula for creating such a beautiful space for Dylan to grow up in. We wanted to use an interior designer to get the best use out of the space we had and to create something long lasting as well as gorgeous – and we are really pleased with the end result. One of my key criteria was a black out blind for my (very) early rising son – not easy to achieve in an inset sash window but Ursula persevered and found a great solution, showing that her talents lie both in great design but also the practicalities of a child’s room.

“I fell in love with her work”

As soon as I learned that I was expecting twins I started dreaming of creating a beautiful nursery. My husband and I decided not to find out their gender until their birth so I knew I wanted something neutral, calming, not too crowded and in Scandinavian style. I also knew I wanted to retain a professional to guide me through the design process and help me make the right choices. Looking for an interior designer on the Internet I found Ursula’s blog and immediately fell in love with her work. I thought hers was exactly the style I wanted for the twins’ nursery. Working with her was a real pleasure. She understood what I wanted, she would make different suggestions and in the end it was me who made the decisions but her guidance was key in achieving a result that I’m very happy with. My husband is very happy with the nursery as well, he actually loves it! I can’t wait to hold my babies and show them what a nice room we created for them. Thanks Ursula!

“We will definitely get her in for the next one!”

We are really happy with the nursery that Ursula has created for us, it feels calm and peaceful and Tobias loves being in there. The cupboard houses really make the room, everyone who walks in comments on them and they make the space feel special. Ursula put a lot of thought into everything that was chosen, from the nightlight down to the colours for the rocking chair, so the room feels really ‘together’ without being too themed. We absolutely love it and will definitely get her in for the next one!

“You really listened to my ideas and made them so much better and more vibrant”

Working with you was wonderful. You had so many good ideas and thought about practical things that I never would have that ended up being so important – like how the light would effect the room and positioning the bed so Jonah would feel safe and cozy. I also felt like you really listened to ideas I had and made them so much better and more vibrant.

The thing I’ve been the most pleased with was how much he LOVES it. So much so that when we first moved and it was all new, he kept inviting anyone that came over – including delivery people and our handyman up to see his room. He’d basically greet anyone at the entry with “Want to come see my room?” He is so proud of it. I remember his first words when he came up to see it were “WOW MAMA COOL”.

I love that he’ll actually stay there and play in the mornings instead of coming down to find me right away.

“It really mattered to her that we got things just right”

We were all really pleased with the bedroom; the cabin bed built under an awkward under-the-stairs sloping roof was a design and use of space that we would never have thought of ourselves, and turned what we thought of as a weak point of the room’s layout into a positive strength.

The room feels lighter and bigger, and has infinitely more storage; it’s a design that will hopefully take Georgie through from primary school to her teenage years without needing to be changed as she grows.

She and her friends enjoy putting on “shows” using the cabin bed with its curtains as a stage, and the fold-down nature of the desk means that it can be folded away so that there’s plenty of space for her friends to sleepover.

Georgie also loves closing the bed curtains to create a snug den, and the fact that there is plenty of room in a space down the bottom of the bed and on the inner shelves for all her numerous cuddly toys. I also appreciate that the woodwork wipes clean easily.

Ursula dedicated a lot of time and expertise to get Georgie’s room looking perfect, while working to a fairly tight timetable. It really mattered to her that we got things just right, and she made the whole process of both design and implementation both easy and enjoyable – we can highly recommend her work, and would love to work with her again.

“We now have a nursery that, like our daughter, is the heart and soul of our home”

My husband and I had never worked with a designer before, so we weren’t quite sure what to expect. Ursula was just amazing! She took the time to really understand us and what we were after for our nursery so that it worked with the style of our house. She presented us with several style and price options and even helped us scout out bargains on the internet. She thought of everything right down to the last detail. In the end we have a nursery that, like our daughter, is the heart and soul of our home. Our baby spent her first night in there at four months old and slept like a dream! I would never have been able to do a nursery like this myself. She went above and beyond our expectations and we are very grateful.

“I love how cosy and calm the room feels”

I had ideas about what I wanted, but with Ursula’s input I could raise it to another level. I was really surprised that this was possible without making it expensive or over the top. Discussing Ursula’s constant stream of ideas and photo inspirations made it a dynamic process that led to the end result in a natural way. I love how cosy and calm the room feels now, it’s a lovely space to be in.

“He loves it and so do we”

Ursula designed my six year old son’s bedroom and it looks amazing. He loves it and so do we. Ursula involved him in the design, especially choosing the colours and the decorations. She really made the most of the beautiful period fireplace and even suggested how we could re-vamp our old bunk bed. Everything works together beautifully. The bedroom is a real “wow” room now.

“A pleasant and fun experience for us”

We are both from a theatrical background and we had lots of ideas but needed some direction with how to focus these ideas into a practical picture that would have longevity as Christian grew.

We only had a couple of meetings with Ursula in addition to a few emails and phone calls but she was able to take what we were requesting and hone them into 4 ideas of how the nursery could double up as a small office space for our small flat.

Immediately we were impressed with how well Ursula had listened to us and made our adhoc visions into a beautiful space that was not only lovely to look at but something that focused on both Christian and our needs without the 2 hindering the space. Christian had a wonderful environment of his own and our office space was cleverly hidden in a built in wardrobe. We never imagined this unique requirement would work so well, but her experience in interiors shone through.

Ursula was very professional and was always available to talk to and no matter what sort of question or concern we had she was able to reassure us. Her friendly and open character made it a pleasant and fun experience for us. We have recommended her to friends and would not hesitate to do so again in the future.

“Ursula simplified the process by helping us narrow down the choices”

I got completely stuck trying to imagine what to do with our son’s nursery. Ursula simplified the process by helping me narrow down the choices. I love trees, so she suggested bringing nature inside with a wallpaper tree mural, which I absolutely adore! I love how calm the room feels, and Felix loves looking at the leaves.

“She has inspirational ideas that cover all aspects of a room’s design”

Ursula was a pleasure to work with. She has inspirational ideas that cover all aspects of a room’s design from the feel of the room, to the layout and also the decor. Ursula has a professional yet soft manner, and I would recommend her to everyone!

Vicky (Jacob’s mum)

“The design was such a compliment to our other rooms”

Ursula took the time to understand my preferences and personal style to get the brief for our nursery exactly right and I was extremely impressed with her resulting design. She got my style spot-on. It was like she had visited and seen the rest of our house. The design was such a compliment to our other rooms. She selected pieces that I would not have thought of myself but that I loved. I would recommend Room to Bloom for a personal, professional service with a beautiful eye for design.
