The Story So Far

With over 20 years as an established interior design company, your home is in safe and nurturing hands

“I find great joy in helping you create your ideal environment and to leave you with a space you’re happy to come home to, excited to show off and proud to live in”

What started out as a passion for art and design, Hannah bought and renovated her own home in her early 20s, which gave her a unique appreciation and understanding for turning design concepts into reality. Blending design styles with technical ability, means your home will be in nurturing hands.

Over two decades, Hannah Barnes Designs Ltd has built an excellent reputation with homeowners and trades people alike, which is essential in bringing all the elements of your home design together.

From electricians, to decorators, soft furnishers to plasterers, your design scheme can be supported and brought to life with Hannah’s selected and trusted contractors.

Hannah has been a Guest Demonstrator at the original Ideal Home Show in both Leeds and Manchester, and created a unique room set competition in the middle of Intu Trafford Centre. See more on this unusual project here.

She also is a monthly contributor with her inspiring and helpful interior design articles for Cheshire Living, Cheshire Life, Absolutely Cheshire, In Cheshire Magazine and Prestbury Living Magazine. (see below)

Hannah's Approach

Hannah was a finalist for the 2025 Northern Design Awards! Click to see the nominated project:

Home design is a deep rooted passion for me. It always has been. Whether I’m searching for the perfect piece to complement a client’s home, or browsing ideas to update my own home, it feels I have design ideas through my fingertips.

I love to share my creative ideas and nothing brings me more pleasure than showing someone just how beautiful their home can be, giving them ideas they may never have imagined, and teaching them to reflect and expand their own personal style.

Having a home which grows with you is one of the key aspects to my design approach.  Being a mum to young twins, I understand how challenging it can be to create a home you love, which reflects your own taste and needs, and at the same time lives up to the functional needs of a growing family.

So whether you have just moved into your new build, have a baby on the way, are renovating your dream period home or your existing home needs a facelift, I have the experience, passion and ideas to create your ideal space.

I work in a very hands-on way and like to get to know clients before the design process begins so I can create the very best scheme to suit you and your home.  You will certainly never feel pressured to agree to something you don’t like, nor will you feel like a saleswoman has arrived at your door.  Feel free to call or message for an informal chat first and we can discuss how to go from there.

 

And in case you wanted to know, when I’m not obsessing over interiors, I can be found attempting to bake cakes with my little ones (which often look better then they taste),  renovating my own home and re-watching nostalgic 90s movies I have already seen 10 times!
