One of the things I’ve always wanted Natalie Holden Interiors to be is a business that gives something back.

We spend our days helping people create homes that work beautifully for their families and lifestyles. That makes it impossible not to recognise how important having a safe place to call home really is.

That’s why I’ve chosen Crisis as our new charity partner.
£50 of every nee project valued over £3000 will be donated to Crisis via Work For Good, with regular donations throughout the year to help support the charity’s work.

Our previous partnership with Friends of the Earth raised £1,050, and I’m incredibly thankful to every client who made that possible simply by choosing to work with us.

Here’s to designing beautiful homes whilst helping support those who need one most. 🤍

If you could choose just one of these joinery designs for your home, which would it be?

From architectural media walls and illuminated shelving to fluted cabinetry and statement bookcases, each of these designs was created to solve a different challenge. Some conceal technology, some maximise awkward spaces, and others become the focal point of an entire room. Yet they all have one thing in common: they were designed around the way our clients wanted to live and to compliment the architecture.

The beauty of bespoke joinery lies in its versatility. It can be practical, decorative, understated or bold, but when it’s thoughtfully designed, it becomes an integral part of the home rather than simply furniture added afterwards.

There are some projects that deserve to be shared, even when there isn’t a professional photoshoot at the end. This self-build was one of them.

From the earliest planning stages, we were involved in every decision, helping shape not only how the spaces looked, but how they would feel and function to live in every day.

We developed the interior layouts, designed bespoke joinery, specified bespoke lighting, selected finishes, created custom soft furnishings and considered countless details right down to skirting profiles and hardware selections.

What you’re seeing here isn’t a polished reveal. It’s the real journey ( with a focus on the dining space ).

The drawings, the concepts, the site visits, the installation stages and the moments where ideas gradually became reality.

It’s easy to look at a finished room and focus on the final aesthetic, but projects like this remind us that good design is built through layers of thoughtful decisions, collaboration and attention to detail.

We’re incredibly proud of how this home came together and wanted to share more behind the scenes of the process that made it possible.

Which stage of a project do you enjoy seeing most: the design development or the finished result?

From cold and industrial to warm and inviting.

This To***co Warehouse apartment already had beautiful architectural bones, but it lacked the comfort and character our clients were craving.

By introducing layered textures, natural materials and warm, earthy tones, we created a space that feels rustic, elevated and effortlessly liveable.

We thought we’d share a glimpse of the interior design development on of our period property renovations, seen as most of our recent projects have been more contemporary in style.

We developed the bespoke kitchen and joinery designs for this home last year, spending time refining every detail before building work began.

The benefit of designing ahead is that it allows space for thoughtful decision-making; from layouts and materials to sourcing the right craftspeople, without the pressure of construction already being underway.

These design boards and drawings capture some of that process, and now we’re delighted to see the transformation beginning on site.

There’s still a long way to go, but seeing months of planning move into reality is always one of the most exciting parts of a project. We look forward to sharing the next chapter with you.

I’m starting to feel like we are living in an AI echo chamber, and whilst it’s an amazing tool I’m feeling disconnected as we can start to rely on it for everything. It feels like everyone is churning out the same thing, we’re losing individuality and if I’m honest, it’s really starting to scare me!

This past week has felt like a breath of fresh air, attending real life events, meeting real people, building real relationships and being able to experience some fabulous products in real life. Here’s a preview from our trip to

I’d love to know how you are feeling in this evolving world and we’ll be sharing our honest thoughts on this very topic over on the blog soon. We’re currently testing AI on how well it can do interior design on a real project that we have already completed.

We’ll be covering where it completely failed, where it felt too risky, and what it nailed and made so much quicker. Sign up to our newsletter in our bio if you don’t want to miss it!

This was less about creating new rooms, and more about reshaping how they’re used…

For this project, the brief was rooted in how our clients actually live. One preferred the comfort of having dogs close at night, while the other valued a quieter, uninterrupted space.

Rather than asking for compromise, we reconfigured the layout to create a shared master suite that allows for both.

Two bedrooms, connected by a large dressing room and luxury hotel like bathroom, offering independence without losing that sense of being together.

Set away from the rest of the house, the suite now feels more private, more considered - a place to retreat to at the beginning and end of the day.

The shift goes beyond the plan. It’s quieter mornings, better rest, and a home that gently supports different routines, without either needing to give way.

Life lately and studio updates…

- Gorgeous trip to Wales visiting friends over the bank holiday weekend ☀️
- Two great design proposal meetings last week with clients - it’s always great catching up and getting out and about!
- An insightful visit to learning all about smart lighting and experiencing their fantastic showroom
- A wardrobe consultation with the fabulous finally assessing my work wardrobe now I’m back after maternity leave; it was the best investment in myself and now feeling excited to go shopping with a clear plan
- Leanne’s signed up two new full house design projects last week 🙌🏼 (one being a returning client for their new house )
- A trip to Chester Zoo thanks to - River loved his birthday present 🎁
- Projects moving forward on site including the installation of a bespoke bed base designed specially for our Farmhouse project and made by ( our client is due to have twins this month so it’s all hands on deck getting the rooms ready before they arrive!)
- I’ve been working on something behind the scenes which is taking a-lot of deep thought, strategy and careful planning. I’m eager to launch it quick but I know I have to plan it properly so I don’t waste the investment in advertising ( the desire to move forward quickly is a feeling our clients often have and now I can relate to it 🫠 - I’m trying to remind myself to step back and be strategic and not to fall into the trap of impulsively moving ahead with things without a clear plan which often leads to costly mistakes. More to come soon!

Lately, I’ve been noticing how much the spaces around us influence the way our days unfold.

This thought started at our dining table, trying to feed my one‑year‑old. When the room felt busy, the TV on, clutter on the table, everything is so much harder… and time consuming. When the space felt calmer, things softened. Mealtimes flowed. There was less resistance.

It made me pause and think about how often we expect ourselves (and our children) to adapt to environments that aren’t really supporting what we’re trying to do.

This isn’t about quick fixes or universal answers. What works will look very different in every home. But paying attention to how a space makes you feel, and how it shapes behaviour can be a powerful place to start.

I’ve shared more of these reflections in my latest blog, Design For daily life: Dinner time tantrums.

I’ll be sharing more blogs in a series about other moments throughout my daily life; hopefully they resonate with you and provide some food for thought!

I’d love to know is dinner time a struggle or does it flow easy for you?

Renovations often start with a feeling rather than a plan.

A sense that something isn’t working, but uncertainty about where to begin. If you’re juggling ideas, budgets, timelines and advice from all directions, it’s easy to lose confidence before the project has even started.

Our Renovation Strategy Session is designed to create clarity.
Over two focused hours, we share our renovation experience and help you step back, look at the bigger picture, and shape a clear, realistic way forward. Together we’ll explore how you want your home to function, what’s worth prioritising, and how to structure your project so it feels manageable rather than overwhelming.

You’ll leave with:

– A clear action plan
– A better understanding of budgets and timelines
– Informed next steps, tailored to your home and lifestyle
– The confidence to move forward with intention

It’s not about rushing decisions.

It’s about making the right ones, in the right order.

If you’re feeling unsure where to start, this is often the most valuable first step. With experience across 100+ renovations, we help you plan with clarity, addressing potential challenges before they become costly or overwhelming.
