“When we made the decision to hire Simone, we were thinking that it will be great to have new furniture. But in reality, we are now in a place, where when we sit in these rooms in our home, every single item that we’re surrounded with sparks joy and we are very grateful for the way Simone brought that joy into our home and our daily living. If you are thinking of hiring Simone, my recommendation would be to ask yourself if you want more joy in your life?”

Tropical contemporary vacation home

“When we purchased a vacation home in the Caribbean island of Sint Maarten (Saint Martin), we needed a full service interior designer to help us furnish it. Global Inspirations Design delivered in every aspect.

The key for us was to find someone that would understand our vision and have the ability to integrate it into a concrete plan while staying within the constraints of a budget. All of this needed to be done with us remote. We chose Global Inspirations Design for this challenging task and it was the best decision that we made.

Eclectic East Meets West Interior Design

“As an American family moving from China back to Basel, our home, our furnishing and our design ideas were a big mixture of multiple cultures and continents. We liked many styles and we owned many styles and we needed to find a way to make them work together. Enter Simone from Global Inspirations Design. Her Interior Design Consultation was well worth the time and money and was hugely valuable in helping us sort out the set up for our newly purchased home. She explored who we were and how we used our home and then offered advice on how best to layout our home to make the best use of it.

“Simone was contracted as my interior designer for my home in the British Virgin Islands. She demonstrated a high-level of professionalism, dedication and breath of fresh air throughout the entire project. She is extremely passionate about interior design, very creative and meticulous. She provided detailed options and while she was keen on making sure that I received my desired design concept, she remained direct about design options that did not go well together.

She was a great asset in helping us choose the right location and type of lighting, color scheme and wall treatments. The advice she provided saved a lot of hassle and costs down the line because we were able to make the right interior design decisions on time. We appreciated her flexibility in terms of meeting scheduling and channels of communication which is very important for people with busy schedules. She has an eye for detail and a good sense of what “fits together” and makes a home a comfortable yet modern place to live and entertain guests.”

“We booked an Interior Design Consultation with Simone. She gave us clear advice, great concrete ideas and guidelines. She also revealed certain things in our interior that we were aware of, but unable to translate into action and concrete interior design solutions. Thanks to her guidance, good understanding of our problem and her vision, this consultation was very helpful to kick off our project and come to a great result.”

“We absolutely enjoyed the day out shopping with Simone – it was well worth working with her in every regard. She is definitely an expert in her field with a boundless amount of energy and enthusiasm shown throughout the day. We really felt that she had our best interests at heart and we truly appreciate everything she has done for us.”

J. & M. Bensch, Reinach (Baselland), Switzerland

“I met with Simone soon after moving into our new house. In a few hours, she was able to provide clear direction and ways to prioritise the work. She looked at our current belongings, helped identify some potential styles to lean towards, and had a great practicality about what could be done to help with the house. What I appreciated most was her knowledge of structural building, her ability in helping us identify priorities and her friendliness and professionalism. I left feeling like it was money well spent and would certainly engage her in any future design work. She is clearly knowledgeable, capable and has an excellent global view of furnishings and styles and the flexibility to adapt to spaces and client needs.”

L. Underwood, Dietikon (Aargau), Switzerland

Simone listened to us, made recommendations based on her sense of our vision, had a keen eye for details, and kept us within the confines of the budget. She was meticulously organized and always kept us informed or answered any questions we had with swiftness and effectiveness.”

D. & L. Fey, Minnesota, USA/ Saint Martin, Caribbean

“The consultation was very inspiring and has motivated us to finally tackle our redecoration project! Simone conveyed new ideas using simple tricks. We were fascinated by her “Hands-on” approach and how tweaking small pieces of furniture and deco items would already enhance the look of our apartment. We are really looking forward to the upcoming changes of each room.”

Dr. A. & Dr. M. Hirschmann, Therwil, Switzerland

“As with any design project, obstacles come along, in this case it was a global pandemic that shut everything down for months. Simone was our greatest ally, working with contractors and suppliers to finish our project to above our expectations! We would recommend Simone without the slightest hesitation. We too, look forward to working with Simone and Global Inspirations Design again in the future.”

D. & L. Fey, Minnesota, USA/ Saint Martin, Caribbean
