“First Sense Interiors was founded on the belief that home is the most important place in the world. It's where we find comfort and sanctuary, where we can truly be ourselves, and where we can enjoy simple blissful moments like coffee in pyjamas, baking with family, or cuddling with a pet on the sofa. I also believe that thoughtful, creative design can bring joy and a sprinkle of magic to these everyday moments to nurture our wellbeing and make us happier."

FOUNDER
SERVICES
While based in Nottingham, I work with clients across the UK to design homes that nurture and inspire, and are as practical as they are beautiful.
Each project is tailored to your unique requirements, style and lifestyle. Here are some of the ways we can work together.
RENOVATION

Planning a renovation and wondering when to get an interior designer involved? Ideally, as soon as you have initial architect plans, or at least before building plans are finalised, so we can 'design backwards' to achieve the best layouts, lighting & electrical plans and practicalities.
KITCHENS & BATHROOMS

From layout to lighting, these hardworking rooms require thoughtful planning to achieve the optimal balance between functionality and aesthetics. Given the disruption and cost of renovating these rooms, carefully considered details are all the more important.
ROOM DESIGN

From spatial planning to carefully chosen finishes, we'll reimagine your rooms with creative solutions that are tailored to your personal style, needs and lifestyle. The result is a home that's not just beautiful, but also functional, comfortable, and uniquely yours.
BESPOKE JOINERY DESIGN

Often forming part of a room design, bespoke joinery design makes the very best use of space to give you the perfect tailored solution for your needs while adding beautiful character to your home.
E-DESIGN

Wherever you are in the UK, I can work with you online using your architect's plans or your measurements and photos. The design process will provide you with expert information to transform your space.
CONSULTATION

Perfect for when you would like professional guidance without committing to a full design, a consultation addresses your design dilemmas and questions to help you move your project forward with clarity and confidence.

-
WHAT CLIENTS SAY
"It was as if she put herself in our shoes and worked out how we would actually live and move about our home... Meera had a knack for understanding our style even when we weren’t sure of it ourselves. We couldn't be happier... Every room feels relaxed, natural and characterful."
-
WHAT CLIENTS SAY
"From designing custom made built in units, sourcing one of a kind rugs from Morocco, to specifying rewiring so the lighting works better. Meera has thought of everything and the results are just stunning. I walk into the rooms we have completed and cannot believe this is my house."
-
WHAT CLIENTS SAY
"Meera took all of the stress out of the design process, and was worth every penny... We have been blown away by how the space has changed. Our kitchen is unrecognisable, and it is no overstatement to say that the space has been completely transformed... surpassed our expectations."

WHAT CLIENTS SAY
"Meera’s approach was so helpful and patient. At times I dithered, and she helped to give me the confidence to make decisions. She listened, asked good questions, was superb at presenting ideas and her vision and attention to detail is incredible. I couldn’t have done it without her."
