Hi! I've reviewed your brief — love the Scandinavian direction. Could you share specific colours you're drawn to?

Yes! I'm thinking warm terracotta and sage — with a cream base?

Perfect palette. I'll incorporate that into the mood board. First draft ready in 24 hrs.

What Our Clients Say
★★★★★
"I couldn't believe the quality for £17. My living room went from bare and beige to genuinely beautiful. The student even sourced items in my exact IKEA budget."
— Priya M., Manchester
★★★★★
"As a first-time homeowner I had no idea where to start. The mood board changed everything. It felt like working with a professional studio, not a student."
— Tom H., Edinburgh
★★★★★
"Three rooms, three different designers. Every one delivered something unique and considered. Worth every penny — and the process was incredibly smooth."
— Isabelle C., London

Our Purpose

Vision & Mission

Vision

To make interior design accessible and affordable for everyone while helping the next generation of designers build real-world experience.

Livable connects talented interior design students with people seeking affordable, practical, and personalised design solutions. By combining creativity, functionality, and accessibility, we help individuals transform their living spaces while giving students meaningful professional experience, portfolio development, and income opportunities. Our goal is to become the leading platform for affordable interior design services powered by emerging talent.

Mission

We make interior design affordable, accessible, and functional by connecting customers with talented interior design students.

Livable empowers people to create spaces they love without the high cost of traditional interior design. Through our platform, customers receive personalised design concepts from verified interior design students who gain valuable experience, build portfolios, and earn income. We focus on functionality, affordability, and creativity to make every space feel more livable.

What We Stand For

Accessibility

Good design shouldn't be a luxury. We've built a platform that brings professional-quality interior design to anyone, starting at £15.

Student Empowerment

Every project is a real portfolio piece. Our designers gain income, verified reviews, and hands-on client experience while still studying.

Trust & Transparency

No bidding wars, no hidden fees. Livable sets fair prices, verifies every designer, and handles payment — so both sides focus on design.
