TESTIMONIALS 

  • Michelle, Potts Point NSW

    I feel really fortunate that I was recommended the design services of Michael of Michael Allsopp Design for my Potts Point apartment. He conceived a beautiful and efficient layout for my new kitchen, bathrooms and bedroom joinery, and was proactive in recommending creative ways to add luxury to the renovation. I really enjoyed working with him and appreciated the way he was able to listen to my ideas and then incorporate them into an elegant and efficient design. I am thrilled with the final results and it is all down to Michael and the team of builders he worked with. I highly recommend Michael and would definitely work with him again.

  • Jennifer Meredith, Maroubra NSW

    Working with Michael was an absolute pleasure! I am truly in love with my new home and have Micheal to thank for it. I had some big ideas and a love of color and eclectic art which had me at a loss of which direction to go, and Micheal allowed me express that in a beautiful way that is still calming and cohesive. He listened to even the smallest of my concerns and went above and beyond to find solutions. Couldn't recommend him enough and am looking forward to using Micheal for any future projects.

  • David Farrell, Pyrmont NSW

    Working with Michael on the redesign and refurbishment of our inner city apartment was a privilege and a delight. There were tricky design constraints to be worked through, and it was here that Michael's innovative professionalism came to the for. Respecting key elements in our existing art, he sensitively devised a unifying theme and colour palette that formed a solid foundation for carefully coordinated new furniture, custom carpentry and discrete highlight furnishings. It was easy to relax and totally trust Michael, knowing we were in safe hands.
