We are celebrating!

15 years of design, painting, training and our own bespoke pieces.

Marmalade House Design

For those who don’t know me, I am Vanessa, the founder of Marmalade House Design, 15 years ago now. The company began with a vision to bring together skills needed to transform interiors with design and furniture painting, and has grown from strength to strength.

We have evolved from starting at our kitchen table, to now being able to offer a highly successful and broad range of services across the interior design industry.

We love what we do! I have a wonderful team of professionals who add their own individuality to the company when needed, and we have become synonymous for both quality and style. Our award-winning training courses are run from our farmhouse studios in Bath, and will soon be available online.

We love colour, rusticity, earthy home living, always curated with a touch of Marmalade style.

Our journey so far has been colourful, fulfilling and very enjoyable. I hope you will continue to be part of our community as we move into the next phase of our journey. There’s lots of exciting things to come – a transition from painting furniture into oils on canvas, a new podcast, new training courses, an online shop with bespoke pieces from around the world to inspire you, and always new projects and plans to show.

Thank you for following us, and we look forward to sharing our working adventures with you. x
