We instructed Ra Ra Designs to furnish our five bedroom Cotswold property. Sarah's depth of experience, creativity and ability to source quality furnishings meant that the project ran smoothly, and completed on time, and within budget. Sarah was always approachable, flexible, with a problem-solving mentality that was greatly appreciated. I would highly recommend her services. More...

Sarah from RaRa Designs was instrumental in the success of our extension and renovation. She has a real eye for how a space will come together and really lifted the load of the thousands of decisions that come with a project like this. Their ability to see both the big picture and art the same time as managing the details was exceptional and their professionalism was a breath of fresh air. More...

We were so grateful for the advise we received from Rara Designs, helping us with the setting up of a holiday rental property. Several years later Sarah designed a supurb and very spacious master ensuite for the same property. There were a couple of very tricky moments with the installation of the bath, but Sarah's ability to think 'outside of the box' meant that far from being a problem, her solution to the plumbing issue actually enhanced the final outcome. We have no hesitation in recommending Rara Designs and I'm sure we will be employing their services again in the future. More...

Sarah worked with us for around a year on the complete renovation of our house. She had incredible vision from an architectural perspective and the result is a house that not only looks beautiful but now has a space that flows. Sarah helped us with everything – including floor plan redesign, bathrooms, kitchen, bedrooms, reception rooms and more. Her attention to detail (right down to tile layout and precise measurements of floorplans) combined with her imaginative flair for colour and design and her technical knowledge means we couldn’t be more delighted with the outcome. Sarah is also incredibly easy to work with – she was ever patient when we weren’t convinced on first suggestions and was always happy to propose alternatives. Thank you Sarah! More...

We’ve worked with Sarah from Ra Ra Designs on several projects and she’s always been a pleasure to deal with. Nothing is ever too hard, she’s approachable, creative, and always focused on finding practical solutions that work for everyone. On one project in particular, we had a client with big expectations but a tight budget. Sarah delivered a beautiful design that hit the mark without going over budget. Her ability to balance quality, style, and cost really stood out.Highly recommend Sarah and the team at Ra Ra Designs: consistently great to work with. More...

Sarah is an absolute star. We have undertaken a major refurbishment of a very tired old two storey dance studio which required a complete internal re-design to create a large events hall seating 160 people, the specification and fitting of a commercial kitchen, a new reception area and toilet suite for people coming to events, along with the re-design and refurbishment of a number of meeting rooms. Sarah undertook all the design and specification work and oversaw the supply of materials and the contractors involved. Her planning and project management ability meant we always knew what was going on, and her attention to both the big picture design along with the all important finishing details, was remarkable. We have ended up with an outstanding refurbished building which is a huge testament of Sarah's creative, design and project management abilities. As an indication of how good her work is, a couple changed their wedding plans to use the venue when they saw it and they were our first major event which went brilliantly! I would therefore fully recommend Sarah for major commercial interior design work. More...

Sarah has managed the complete renovation of our 4-bedroom Edwardian house; from the architectural plans, to electrical and lighting layout, to colour schemes and interior design - she has designed and managed the entire project. We are currently living abroad and this had the potential to be a stressful enterprise but Sarah’s excellent communication, meticulous organisation, and attention to detail has made the whole thing a breeze!Sarah is trustworthy, reliable, works to budget and delivers on time and has ensured that the work carried out has been of the highest standard. In addition to her faultless professional abilities, Sarah is also positive and cheerful, no task is insurmountable and she is a joy to work with. I cannot recommend Sarah and RaRa Designs more highly. More...
