Interior Designer in Edgbaston
Designed With You, Not Just for You.
Edgbaston is one of Birmingham’s greenest, lowest-density suburbs, full of substantial homes on leafy streets and generous gardens. Much of it sits within the Calthorpe Estate and the Edgbaston Conservation Area, one of the largest in the country, so the character runs from grand Victorian villas to Arts and Crafts houses, elegant inter-war homes and newer builds. Whatever kind you have, the starting point is the same: what could this house be, and how do you want to live in it?
The best part of a project like this is doing it together. You know how you live, what you love and what frustrates you about the house as it is. We bring the eye, the technical read and the team to make it happen. The homes we are proudest of always come out of that back and forth, so we ask plenty of questions and we want you involved at every stage. We do our best work with you, not around you.
Andy spent over twenty years on the technical side of commercial buildings before moving into interiors, so early on he works out what yours will actually allow, whether that is opening up a tired layout, bringing in more light, or knowing when to leave a good thing alone. In a conservation area it also means knowing what the setting will let you change. Getting that right early is what keeps the whole thing enjoyable later.
Chapter Seven Design is led by Andy and Joe Smith, with a trusted team of trades, makers and specialists behind every project, and a founder with you from the first conversation to the last detail. Joe keeps everything running so the whole thing feels organised and, honestly, a pleasure to be part of. The people you meet at the start are the people who see it through.
We take on full home renovations in Edgbaston and focused work on the rooms that matter most, from kitchens to bedrooms, finished to the standard these homes deserve. We work nearby in Harborne and across the Midlands too.
If you have a home in Edgbaston you would love to get right, bring us your ideas. We would love to hear them.
