Martina Hayes Building Design & Interior Design

We decided to renovate the bathroom in our 100-year-old home and respect its beautiful Art Deco and Arts and Crafts features while adding a modern feel. We knew we needed a design professional to help us achieve this sensitive balance. Thankfully we found Martina Hayes and look what we achieved. Martina is thoroughly professional and her contacts in the industry are all outstanding. We are happy to recommend Martina and her amazing team.

Martina offered an extremely professional service based on her enormous expertise and knowledge in interior and exterior house design. I was complete satisfied with her explanations and suggestions for my colour schemes and the efficiency of her follow up with the detailed report and colour swatches. I cannot recommend Martina more highly.

We worked with the team at Martina Hayes Interior Design when working on the concept and design of my exterior garden in inner city Sydney.
Martina and I had an excellent chat initially about my enquiry, then Chelsea came to do a full walk through and concept/colour design. We found it so useful not just in terms of colours, but also matching with the style of my house and considering the materials too. We were fortunate to also talk through some design ideas - Chelsea's ideas and advice were invaluable and she thought of ideas/challenges that never would have crossed our minds.
We would high recommend this service to anyone undertaking and design/renovation projects.

The communal areas of our apartment building at Lavender Bay were in need of refurbishment. We engaged Martina to propose an economical but high-quality, eco-friendly, contemporary and classic "look", which would stand the test of time of time and changing trends while appealing to a wide range of tastes. We found Martina a delight to work with, always courteous, knowledgeable and professional. She is a great listener, understanding and clarifying our needs, and doing her utmost to meet them while complying strictly with her brief. Martina guided us efficiently through the design process, explaining the rationale for each considered step. Martina remained always calmly courteous, professional and responsive to the many questions and difficulties necessarily encountered within a group decision-making setting.

Martina & Chelsea understood right from the beginning what I wished to create. Communication was easy. They took the stress away from being a first time renovator, giving me the confidence to pursue my project and love the process.

The communal areas of our 40 year old 15 storey apartment block in the Sydney CBD were in need of a refurbishment. As the body corporate’s committee we wanted to select new flooring, wall coverings and paint colours for the entry foyer and residential floors. Martina was very professional and helped us through the different options available to us. We are very happy with the final interior design specifications which will modernise the appearance of our building.

Martina has been absolutely wonderful to work with. She worked tirelessly to bring our dream home to life, listening patiently as we vacillated between structural and design features and even suggesting and creating some of the most favourite areas of our concept home. I would highly recommend Martina (and have) to anyone who is about to embark on any type of renovation or build.

We called Martina to help us with choosing a new colour scheme when painting the exterior of our house and choosing material colours for a new deck. She was very professional and developed a colour scheme that we could definitely not have picked by ourselves. Highly recommended.

I contacted Martina to assist with the decoration of my main bedroom and colour scheme throughout my house in Greenwich. Martina was an absolute professional to deal with, providing concepts that I won't have considered. I love the end result and would highly recommend Martina.

Martina’s colour consultancy service made the job of choosing colours for our townhouses repaint simple and enjoyable. She also gave us ideas about using colours to bring out and define architectural features that we would never have thought of ourselves. Highly recommend Martina‘a lovely friendly and professional service.

Currently renovating my bathroom and laundry in Surry Hills and Martina helped me with the design, selection of tiles and the bathroom ware.

The design consultation really helped clarify my needs and made for optimal use of the spaces. Martina’s suggestions, tips and expertise were invaluable.

Martina’s knowledge of colour, finish types, and practical application of bathroom fixtures complemented the design layout.

Highly recommended.

I have know Martina for a number of years through a designers group that we are both members of. Martina is known for her sharp eye and her commitment to detail. Martina has worked collaboratively with a number of designers within our group and is always a delight to be around.

Martina did a site visit and talked us through her ideas and tailored her suggestions. She was great help to us in selecting the colour schemes and ideas on how to best utilise our space.

We engaged Martina recently for help with an exterior colour scheme for our home. Our house is an older style and we had recently put in a new, modern kitchen. Martina was able to suggest a colour scheme which would make the house facade more contemporary to tie in with the new kitchen and give a consistent and stylish flow to the entire home. Martina is a talented designer and a warm and delightful person and I have no hesitation in recommending her.

Martina is a very precise, detailed Interior Designer with a skill for achieving a comfortable home. With her German background, she has an organised approach, which will ensure her clients have no worries throughout the design process. Highly recommend.

Martina has helped us enormously with our new bathroom design, taking into account our requirements and style as well as making great suggestions that we would never have thought of on our own!

Martina assisted us with the design of our exterior colour scheme for our pool, deck and outdoor areas including a kitchen and bathroom. Her ideas were extremely valuable to the overall project and helped us deliver a “wow factor” for the final design which we are very pleased with. I would not hesitate to recommend Martina for any interior or exterior design project.

Martina was a great help for us when deciding on paint colours that would go wth the particular type of flooring we were after. She was open to our input while guiding us in the right direction.
