INTERIOR DESIGNERS
in Richmond
We begin by understanding the rhythms of your life and the character of your home. Then we build a design that honours both. From natural materials to bespoke finishes, every element is chosen to enrich your everyday experience.
You won’t find trends here, just thoughtful design with lasting purpose. We believe you should spend once and spend well, creating a space you won’t feel the need to refresh for years to come.
INTERIOR DESIGN IN RICHMOND: OUR PHILOSOPHY
ABOUT OUR INTERIOR DESIGNERS
At Susan Chesney, we approach each project with a philosophy of quiet luxury, a calm, thoughtful, and layered aesthetic that places beauty and integrity at the centre of every home.
We design interiors that feel personal, enduring, and effortless. By combining elegance with warmth, we create spaces that reflect the people who inhabit them, inviting, refined, and authentically lived-in.
This guiding ethos has earned us a place on the Homes & Gardens Next in Design 2025 (NiD25) list, recognising the designers shaping the next generation of interiors. We’re honoured to be featured among such inspiring talent.
"Susan works with quite paired back palettes, but there is a real warmth that shines through."
"Images are our palette and canvas, each one a visual poem that speaks volumes on its own."
"Content creation is a mindful art, each post crafted to inspire and empower."
"Engagement isn't just interaction, it's a shared journey of creativity and expression."
"Growth stems from exploration, constantly pushing boundaries for fresh creativity."
