Sustainable Interior Design
Tatty bird was created by interior designer Natasha Birley, who adopts a sustainable and thoughtful approach to design. We source furniture and craftsmen as locally as possible to the project, appreciating and re purposing antiques, and using sustainable materials to create eclectic interiors.
After attending the Inchbald on a full scholarship Natasha enjoyed and learned various disciplines in the interior design industry. Tatty Bird was born to focus on creating totally unique spaces with as little environmental impact as possible.
KIND WORDS
Review from Helen, Camberwell project:
“Natasha totally transformed our house and brought lots of much needed character. We are so pleased with the look of the rooms she did. We had a few pieces of furniture in each room that we wanted to keep and she managed to include these beautifully in the schemes. She really listened to the brief and I felt she went above and beyond in achieving what we wanted, eg researching Montessori principles when designing the children’s room, finding suppliers close to our home etc.
She is super friendly and also professional, a total pleasure to work with. She was really prompt when sending through the designs, it was never difficult to make changes and she organised the arrival of all the pieces brilliantly. I can’t recommend her highly enough.”
Review from Kathryn, Maida Vale project:
“I was introduced by a friend shortly after buying a flat and starting from complete scratch and overwhelmed at where to start, Natasha was a delight to work with at every stage. She had the right balance to push me out of my comfort zone. I have been enjoying my beautiful home for almost a year now and know for sure, without Tash I would still have white walls and bits of old furniture whilst trying to decide what to do!”
Review from Paolo, Haslemere project:
”We were really happy with Natasha’s designs. She did our entire house, incorporating our ideas along with most of our existing furniture to create gorgeous and functional rooms without sacrificing creativity or playing it safe! In addition, Natasha went above and beyond in helping us deal with the logistics of construction, and by sourcing supplies and accessories. More than anything, though, Natasha is a lovely person, fun to work with, and was supportive and reassuring throughout the project, which took place almost entirely during the pandemic. We love every corner of the house and we’re so happy we get to enjoy it every day.”
Review from Dennis, Farncombe project:
“Tatty Bird / Natasha is definitely the best designer I have ever met (not one of the best but the best). I was lucky to have commissioned her to refurbish my 3 Bed Semi-detached house in Godalming.
From the quotation and evaluation stage till the very end when the project is completed, we have absolutely been informed every single details. We know exactly whats going on and what is going to be done.
Her team of builders, plumbers, electricians and decorators are all great doing the works in perfect standard and on schedule.
Natasha was able to give us the best ideas and proposals based on our very limited budget and everything is within planned.
We are very happy with all Natasha and her team has been doing and if you have a house to desgin and refurbish but not having her, then you may regret in the end very likely.“
