Interior Designer for Period Homes in Surrey

If you're renovating a period property in Surrey, whether it's a Georgian townhouse in Guildford, a Victorian villa in Godalming or a listed country cottage in Chiddingfold, you’ll want to work with someone who understands the quirks, constraints and potential that come with homes like yours.

I’m Nerissa Davies, an interior designer specialising in soulful, considered interiors that honour a home’s history while supporting modern life. Based in Surrey, I work with period homeowners across the region to bring flow, warmth and quiet confidence to homes filled with character.

Whether you’re at the very start of a renovation, feeling overwhelmed mid-way through, or simply want your home to feel more cohesive and lived-in, I can help guide the process with clarity and care.
