Amanda Delaney
Interior Designer
“WITH OVER 20 YEARS EXPERIENCE IN THE WORLD OF INTERIOR DESIGN, I HAVE COME TO UNDERSTAND THAT THE SECRET OF SUCCESS LIES IN THE TIME TAKEN TO REALLY UNDERSTAND AND INTERPRET CLIENT NEEDS, JUST AS MUCH AS OFFERING EXCEPTIONAL CREATIVITY.
WORKING TOGETHER ON THE PROJECT DETAILS HELPS BUILD TRUST AND CREATES A FUN AND COLLABORATIVE JOURNEY”
Amanda graduated from KLC in residential interior design and has worked on a variety of projects ranging from whole house refurbishments to individual rooms, from period to modern properties.
“I have always worked in a creative industry. My love of sourcing comes from my days as a buyer and running my home accessories business. I love searching for that special piece of furniture, fabric or design for a project; I can always be found taking pictures of interesting designs and beautiful joinery I find on my travels that could act as inspiration for one of my projects!”
Amanda works in Surrey, the surrounding boundaries of SW London and Sussex. In addition to her UK clients, she has renovated a number of properties for clients based in the Middle East, offering a full turnkey service.
“Exceptional designs are an investment, and I love that they can be timeless, and therefore sustainable. One of my boldest design choices was to remove the majority of doors and walls to create vistas within my own home, at a time before open plan living became popular. This vision created a design and layout for a home that totally met family needs both at the time and in the future.”
What clients say about Amanda
Surrey ReFURBISHMENT Project
”Amanda was a wonderful guide in helping us navigate the process of renovating our home. She opened our eyes to many new ideas and was very good at helping us crystallise some existing ones.
Amanda was excellent at every stage of the process from initial ideas and design through to helping us deliver the final product.
We could not have achieved the end result we wanted without her. It was a pleasure working with Amanda and we recommend her highly.”
Wimbledon Home Refurbishment
”Amanda was absolutely indispensable on our effort to refurbish our ground floor and to upgrade our staircases.
She always knew just the right tradespeople for each part of the project and was so capable at guiding the finish and colour schemes as well as providing lighting plans and more.
I could not have gotten through this long process without her creativity.”
Godalming Interior Design
”When I found myself overwhelmed by a house renovation and the mountain of decisions that needed to made the very lovely Amanda from Decorbuddi completely saved the day!
She not only took the stress away and provided amazing ideas but also helped me to start finally enjoying the renovation!
The flexible bespoke package for a number of hours really suited my brief, I had lots of ideas and furniture etc but was struggling to see the vision across the house and find the right colours and product styles to match.
Amanda had amazing ideas for bathroom tiles, paint colours, lighting and furniture as well as flooring for our kitchen.
She was incredibly patient when I got particularly fussy on a shade of green! Decorbuddi is a really fantastic service that has resulted in us making a lot of choices that we will be happy with for many years to come!
Thank you Amanda!”
UK ProJECT For International Client
“You have been an absolute godsend. I greatly appreciate the high quality of your creative input, your initiative and exceptional overall project management as well as your careful management and oversight of the construction and the procurement.
There isn’t a single aspect of the project or the process that you did not handle brilliantly. I’m extremely grateful.”

Amanda was excellent. Fantastic attention to detail, professional and really understood the brief”
Leatherhead Interior Design
“A huge thank you to DecorBuddi who put together a beautiful scheme for our living room.
We worked with Amanda who was wonderful. She took the time to understand what we wanted to achieve and provided fabulous advice with how to make the most of the odd shape of the room. She has an excellent eye for colour and detail and for putting textures and materials together. We are thrilled with the way she has transformed the room. We would very happily work with her again.”
WIMBLEDON VILLAGE INTERIOR DESIGN
“We can’t thank Amanda and the Decorbuddi team enough for their direction and support during our house renovation. Amanda was amazing throughout the whole process and took care to understand exactly what we wanted from the very start. She was always on hand when needed and was extremely helpful in managing the various workers and aspects of the whole project - without her it wouldn’t have happened! We are so grateful to Amanda for all the hard work she has put in to our new home - we absolutely love it!!
CLaygate Design & Renovation
“It has been a real pleasure working with Amanda, who has recently helped me with two different refurbishment projects.
She is highly professional, responsive and reliable and her involvement has no doubt saved huge amounts of time and stress, whilst producing a far better result than we could have on our own.
I loved her designs and felt she interpreted our taste and needs really well, whilst keeping a close eye on costs and budget. I hope to work with her again on future projects.”
REDhill Interior Design
“Where to begin! I cannot recommend Decorbuddi highly enough and the Wonderful Amanda who has been an absolute inspiration. If you are lucky to have Amanda working with you, you will be amazed and privileged. As well as being totally down to earth and approachable, friendly and beyond helpful Amanda has an amazing ability to tune in very quickly to what you want and be there for you with brilliant suggestions always with your budget in mind.
Being someone who goes by the 'feel of a room or furniture' and totally hopeless on how to achieve what I want, I can't be the easiest client. But Amanda got it straight away. Her appreciation, within one meeting, of both my apartment and its lovely features as well as encapsulating everything so perfectly turned things completely around. I continue to work with Amanda and instead of being daunted I am filled with excitement and joy at the way things are going and am confident will go with her guiding hand to a perfect conclusion.”
Godalming Interior Design
“I am absolutely delighted with the advice you have given me; you very quickly grasped what I wanted to achieve.
The main bedroom is stunning, and I receive so many compliments! My home is looking so homely, and the decor is in keeping with the age of the property. My children love their home too!! Thank you!!”
