Sophie Wells

Interior Designer

There’s something incredibly satisfying about turning an idea into a fully detailed drawing - when you know that a bespoke interior design with a well-planned layout and considered details will not only look beautiful, but function perfectly for the way someone lives.

KLC-qualified interior designer Sophie brings both precision and passion to every project. She combines strong technical skills with a natural eye for detail and beauty.

Sophie grew up surrounded by design, with a family who were constantly renovating homes to grandparents who were antique dealers. Although she began her career in another field, it was during a break to raise her children that she took the opportunity to retrain professionally, and renovating her own home project, turning a lifelong interest into a full-time calling.

“Interior design is in my blood. I love fully immersing myself in a project- from refining the layout to drawing bespoke joinery and choosing the perfect finishing touches. It’s all about getting the detail right, and seeing it come together in a space that feels just right for the people who live in it.”

Today, she’s known for her ability to move confidently between the structural and the decorative. She is equally at home mapping out plumbing and lighting plans as she is selecting fabrics, colour palettes, and accessories. Her clients appreciate her hands-on, problem-solving approach and her calm, collaborative nature throughout.

“Decorbuddi interior designer Sophie Wells has been helping to renovate our new home and I have thoroughly enjoyed working with her.

She took time to listen and really understand the aesthetic we were after and came back to us with exactly the style we were after.

She has gone above and beyond the initial project itself, keeping in touch and offering advice and support since then. I continue to consult her every time we are considering anything in the home and her insight has proven invaluable in making the right choices!”

“Sophie is an excellent interior designer. She works very hard to understand the motivations of the homeowner.

She pushes her clients to be more daring than they might otherwise be and has an excellent ability to use colour for dramatic effect.

Sophie has a deep understanding of colour and texture but also combines this with practical insight and skills into whether a project will work or not.

I really enjoyed working with Sophie.”

Background & Career Journey

Design Style & Approach

Interior design is central to Sophie’s identity, and she approaches each project with total commitment and attention to detail.
