Shag Interior: Staffordshire’s Only Maximalist Design Company
Hi, I’m Sophie from Shag Interior, and I help homeowners and businesses who are time-poor transform their properties into unique and spaces through practical and considered design.
I offer full consultancy which means we will work collaboratively to establish a concept and create a beautiful design, then I will project manage everything including external contractors, so you only ever have to deal with one person. This makes your life a whole lot easier and removes the stress from renovation jobs big or small.
As part of my ‘full package’ I offer a furniture and decor sourcing service where we will establish your budget and I will source sustainable, unique pieces from a whole range of places from antique fares to our trusted partners – whatever suits your brief.
I pride myself on understanding people and my ability to bring out your personality within designs that are both practical and aesthetically breathtaking.
Who are our clients?
Whilst we welcome enquiries from everyone we have a niche: maximalists.
More specifically, maximalists who haven’t quite mastered the art of combining textures, prints and colours with a collection of brilliantly mis-matched furniture and need guidance to layer with ease a perfect, cohesive home.
Or maybe you already know what you want but you are time-poor and need someone who can understand your style, efficiently plan a design and execute it, taking care of all the contractors and invoicing so you don’t have to manage a million things on top of your busy lifestyle.
How did I get here?
I have been lucky enough to move around a lot since I moved out of my parents’ house at age 21. In that time I’ve lived in many different types of property in over 10 locations including London and Los Angeles, so I got pretty good at being able to make a house a home even when I was miles from where I grew up.
As the years went on I realised that so much of our comfort, happiness and inner-peace comes from our surroundings; so why do so many of us hold back from injecting our personalities into our homes? And worse still.. why are we made to feel temporary by always worrying about how other people are going to value our home when we come to sell?!
I’ve never really understood the desire to live in a soulless, carbon copy of every other house on the street.. so if you’re looking for that ‘all-grey and astro-turf’ kinda vibe I’m not the designer for you.
I personally love print, rich colour and homes that tell a story, but so far this year I’ve had briefs that range from ‘Cosy but Tough’ to ‘Boutique Luxe’ and even a pirate-themed Barbershop! So I would love to hear your ideas, find our more about you and help you transform your home or workplace into your very own sanctuary. If the brief isn’t right for me I will let you know and try my best to point you in the direction of someone who can help.
If you’re local to Cannock/Stafford/Stoke I also offer painting services including limewash, textured effects, stripes, animal print, geometric and colour blocking.
So whether it’s full design production or a hand-painted mural for your bathroom wall, I’d love to hear from you!
