We are a design duo that started up the business in the middle of the Global Pandemic. Hestia derives from the Greek goddess of the hearth of the home and family, the meaning behind our brand name is very relevant to us and to what we want to achieve with our business, said Rachel O’Hanrahan.
“Our Goal is to make the house a home, as home and family have never been more important to us, as COVID has made us all look at our homes and our workplaces in a different way.
“We’re here to get the best out of the spaces that people already have with our Interior Design offering a full design service from commercial to residential projects” enthused Mrs O’Hanrahan.
“We launched last October and offer a range of services for all Interior Design works, from Planning Permission applications, renovations, full fit outs, one room design schemes, colour consultations, right through to the end of the project where we can style the rooms to deliver the finishing touches. We also provide designs to accommodate home offices in any space, outdoor garden rooms and show homes.
“Sarah and I are also both Classical Feng Shui master consultants, so we bring that element into our design to maximise space and its potential, bringing good energy and balance for any project, be it your home or business.” enthused Rachel.
“A service we offer is 3D render designs, we discuss the brief with a client about what they want from their project, and with the use of 3D render software this allows the client to visualise the space and see how the concept will look upon completion, before they invest in their project and avoid any costly mistakes,” explained Sarah Marry.
“Although we are based in Louth, we also work in the surrounding areas and with our online consultations our services can be accessed nationwide,” enthused Ms Marry.
As to the short term future or some of the goals Sarah & Rachel have in mind for Hestia Design?
“We are happy with the way things are progressing and we are currently working on existing commercial and residential projects alongside a new showhome in the Drogheda region. We would like to build on the clients that we have as well as continuing to deliver amazing design schemes to suit all client’s needs.” concluded Sarah Marry and Rachel O’Hanrahan.
