Testimonials
"Ross is a visionary designer who taps into the essence of you to select colours and fabrics. His elegant work is disarmingly understated but then he’ll surprise with a bold edgy choice as well (think vinyl snakeskin ottoman specially built to work with the height of your couch). He works with you; he doesn’t just impose his vision on you. I found Ross heard everything I said, respected my thoughts and expanded my imagination to elevate the look. I love my apartment make-over with its bright colours and huge mirrors (another trademark in Ross’s design aesthetic)."

"Ross connected with Peter and I on what we were looking for in our new apartment. He understood our background, aspirations, entertaining, family and daily living requirements. Ross had the skills and background to guide Peter and I through the most important aspects of our new home. Ross provided Peter and I with a “vision”, which incorporated the warehouse layout of the apartment, the physical location, our personal preferences for style, comfort, and fabrics.
Once agreed, Ross took up-front responsibility for working with the developers and architects to ensure that all signed off structural changes were made. Ross ensured that all agreed interior design aspects- from soft furnishing, hard finishes, technical integration to the bespoke design of furniture were delivered on specification and on budget. Ross’ attention to detail, understanding, and relationship with the interior design and supply sector (count this as a potential cost saving as he can drive a harder bargain than the ordinary consumer), creativity, communication and negotiation skills along with his commitment to Peter and I as customers, cannot be calculated. I would recommend Ross Fairhurst to anyone interested in maximizing their investment in a valuable property."

"I have known Ross Fairhurst for many years and have always been astounded by his attention to detail along with his original and practical thoughts on decoration. He has put this to great use on many projects including my own and to the delight of other clients.
Naturally, when we were looking to build a small “Barn” on our country property we looked to Ross for help. He designed exactly what we were looking for a small, attractive and practical building which is now underway. The same applied when we were looking for a completely different project in the city. This was difficult as it was an upgrade of an existing home but which needed both indoor and outdoor changes for a growing family. The work has been completed and now fills all the needs of the family. Ross sets his mind to complete a brief which satisfies both design and living needs of the client. At the same time, he never delivers something which doesn’t suit either the personality or living style of the client.
I would and have recommended his talent to a number of people and they have all been extremely happy with the outcome.”
