Interior Decorator

Hiring an interior decorator allows you to redesign and optimise your interior without having to undergo major works. Since 2006, our interior decorators in Marseille are helping you improve your interior’s style and atmosphere, pick the right furniture and colours and rethink the distribution of your space.

Why should you hire an interior decorator?

A fresh look at your interior

  • Benefit from the expertise of an interior decorator (also called “interior designer”) to bring new perspectives and a professional look to your interior.
  • Learn about potential improvements to make your interior brighter, more practical and more comfortable. For example, placing a sofa in front of a window or in a corner can have a crucial influence on brightness or flow.
  • Get the confidence you need to make bold decoration decisions. Your decorator is working as a coach that helps you define your interior style. Have you been dreaming of having a bright living room wall, but hesitate on which colour to pick or which wall? Your interior decoration specialist will be able to confirm the best location and the ideal colour.
  • Get unique style ideas. Your decorator helps you create the decor that is right for you and could even make you go beyond your current taste. For example, if you like vintage style and design items, an interior decorator could find a unique armchair to dress up a room.

Optimising your space without any heavy works

  • Improve the brightness in your apartment in Marseille without undergoing significant works. For example, creating a glass wall can brighten a windowless room.
  • Optimise your furniture distribution to save space: storage, cupboards, built-in furniture... Your space will be better distributed and organised.
  • Rethink lighting. By placing light sources in the right spot, you can completely transform the atmosphere of your living room.
  • Make everything more practical. Create a new corridor for better flow, mount a sliding door, place your armchair to maximise space… This type of optimisation can contribute to you and your visitor’s wellbeing.

Pick your decoration

  • Get the best advice on choosing interior decoration that best matches colours, patterns, materials and textiles, and harmonise furniture and accessories to create a unique style.
  • Be creative while avoiding faux-pas when choosing colours and materials. Your decorator will know exactly how to reveal potential of your apartment or house in Marseille.
  • Benefit from discounts whenever possible. Your decorator is connected to many suppliers and decorators that give access to pro rates. They will also put you in touch with skilled craftsmen that match your decoration budget.
  • As part of an eco-responsible and ethical project, they can also help you find vintage or antique furniture in flea markets, antique shops or thrift shops.

Commercial & Retail Decoration / Space storytelling

Interior decorators can contribute in a meaningful way when redecorating commercial spaces: offices, shops, restaurants, hotels or any other commercial space open to the public.

Beyond a simple decoration of your space (office, shop, hotel, etc.), the interior decorator creates a real visual story in order to make it unique.
