Elynn & Wayne We found Design 4 Space through Qanvast and worked with Elynn, with Wayne supporting us throughout the journey. Elynn was our main point of contact and managed the contractors directly, while Wayne provided steady support behind the scenes, making the whole process feel well-rounded and reliable.
A strong deciding factor for us was the assurance of Design 4 Space’s CaseTrust accreditation and the Qanvast Guarantee, which gave us complete peace of mind. On top of that, Design 4 Space is the local distributor for Ecoply Wood and Ecoply Contact Adhesive – both certified as among the lowest formaldehyde emission plywood and glue in the market – making them likely the most cost efficient choice for homeowners who prefer low-formaldehyde products.
Beyond these advantages, Elynn herself was straightforward in our communications, respected our budget clearly, and was upfront about additional charges before decisions were made. There were no surprises about hidden costs in our renovation journey. Over the few months we worked together, Elynn always answered our many questions patiently and guided us through each phase of the renovation. Communication was smooth and consistent – we never felt ghosted – and she even handled a neighbour’s complaints about renovation noise during the day without troubling us, only updating us afterwards.
Elynn’s ability to refine our ideas and translate them into specifications for her contractors was the most valuable asset to us. We had a general sense of what we wanted, and she helped sharpen those concepts – advising us on which premium features were worth investing in and which ones weren’t necessary. Her guidance made our vision come to life in a practical, cost effective way.
During the renovation phase, Elynn’s coordination with contractors was excellent. She held them accountable as much as was within her control, ensuring everything stayed on track and the house was even delivered ahead of schedule. This was when we especially felt solidified in our decision to work with an interior designer. Elynn managed all aspects so well that we didn’t feel the need to visit the house at all until completion, because we trusted her capabilities that much. At handover, the house was in great condition, and the minor issues we jointly spotted (renovation will never be perfect!) were resolved within the week thanks to her firm management of her contractors.
Elynn also emphasised the one-year post-renovation warranty and reassured us that we should not hesitate to reach out if any need arises. Together, Elynn and Wayne were transparent, honest, and especially reassuring for us as first-time homeowners. They provided great customer service, strong communication, and made the renovation journey far less stressful than we expected. If you have ideas for your home and want someone who can refine them while advising where to spend for maximum impact and where to save to stay cost efficient, Elynn – with Wayne’s consistent support – is truly a secret weapon you’ll want by your side.
We cannot recommend them enough and are confident that you’ll have as pleasant an experience as we had with them!
