Testimonials 

Ella is a qualified, experienced and knowledgeable interior designer. Her showroom is very pleasant and is well stocked with fabrics, wallpapers and other sampling. For guidance and inspiration, Ella & Colleen are easy to talk to, and listened attentively to help us develop our project, vision and ideas. We have been extremely pleased with the quality and attention to detail of all the work Ella & Colleen have undertaken for us. Lead times are accurate and customer satisfaction is of the utmost importance. All in all, this is an excellent interior design business to consult with and commit to.

Pam – Paignton

We were delighted with the quality of Ella’s work. She has a superb range of fabrics and offers considered advice to ensure a great outcome. Order and production times were accurate. I have no hesitation in recommending Mella Design

Carlie – Ideford, Newton Abbot

We are still thrilled with the effect created by your work with us – both curtains and re-upholstery – and we thank you once again for your patience and skill in helping to bring together the overall effect.

Jan and Tony – Abbotskerswell, Newton Abbot

I found your service excellent, with great advice about fabrics and tons of patience!

Penny – Torquay

You and your team were so helpful and patient in giving us lots of ideas for the materials for our blinds and curtains from your huge selection of design sample books. We are so pleased with our blinds and curtains which are beautifully made.

Mel – Staverton

Mella Design supplied roman blinds for three rooms. They were beautifully made and I am delighted with the results.

Gill – Ashburton

From first walking into the showroom full of hope and expectation, I was not at all disappointed! The gentle persistent support and professional eye of Ella, the owner of Mella Design, and Colleen’s tireless enthusiasm to find the right solution, helped me to achieve my imagined vision. Absolutely nothing seemed too much for either of them, an altogether pleasing experience.
