## Services
- [Full interior design & project management](https://jlv-design.co.uk/services/full-interior-design/): Full interior design means one designer looks after your home from first idea to final cushion: layouts, colours, materials, lighting, bespoke joinery, furniture sourcing, ordering and coordinating the trades. JLV Design offers this for renovations, extensions and whole homes across North London.
- [Interior design consultation](https://jlv-design.co.uk/services/design-consultation/): An interior design consultation is a focused session — typically by the hour — where a designer looks at your space and gives practical advice on layout, colour, lighting and soft furnishings. It suits people who want expert direction but prefer to do the buying and project managing themselves.
- [Design scheme packages](https://jlv-design.co.uk/services/design-scheme/): A design scheme is a complete, ready-to-use plan for a room: mood board, furniture layout, colour palette, materials and a sourced shopping list. You get a designer’s full thinking on paper, then buy and install at your own pace — or ask us to help with that too.
- [Colour consultation](https://jlv-design.co.uk/services/colour-consultation/): A colour consultation helps you choose paint and wallpaper that suit each room’s light, its use and the rest of your home. You leave with a written colour scheme — named shades, finishes and where each goes — so rooms feel distinct yet connected.
- [Bespoke joinery design](https://jlv-design.co.uk/services/bespoke-joinery/): Bespoke joinery design means storage and furniture drawn to fit your exact space — alcove units, bookcases, media walls, wardrobes and eaves storage. JLV Design produces the design and drawings, and your carpenter (or one we recommend) builds from them.
- [Home styling & staging](https://jlv-design.co.uk/services/home-styling-and-staging/): Home styling is the finishing layer of a room — art, lighting, textiles, accessories and furniture placement. Home staging applies the same skills to present a property for sale or let, so buyers can picture living there.
- [Online interior design](https://jlv-design.co.uk/services/online-interior-design/): Online interior design works by video call and shared files: you send photos, measurements and a wish list, and the designer gives advice, layouts and colour and product recommendations remotely. It suits clients outside the area or with busy diaries.

## FAQ
### What does JLV Design do?
JLV Design is an interior design studio in Muswell Hill, North London. Founder Joséphine Lecoufle-Vinet offers hourly design consultations, room design schemes, colour advice, bespoke joinery design, home styling and staging, and full-scale design, sourcing and project management for renovations and extensions. Her style is French modern, with an English twist.

### How much does an interior designer cost with JLV Design?
It depends on the scope. You can book an hourly consultation, a fixed design scheme for a room, or full design and project management. On Houzz, the typical job cost for JLV Design is £1,500 to £50,000. You will receive a clear quote after a first conversation about your home.

### Can you work within my budget?
Yes. JLV Design works within your budget, whether it is a single room makeover or a whole new home. Joséphine offers options across a range of price points, re-uses good existing furniture, sources vintage pieces and suggests refinishing instead of replacing — for example, spray-painting a kitchen rather than buying a new one.

### Which areas of London do you cover?
We are based in Muswell Hill, N10, and work across North London, including Crouch End, Highgate, East Finchley, Hampstead Garden Suburb, Alexandra Palace, Harringay, Stoke Newington, Southgate, Arnos Grove, Barnet, East Barnet, Enfield, Borehamwood and Willesden. Online consultations are available anywhere in the UK.

### Do you offer online interior design consultations?
Yes. Online consultations work by video call: you share photos, rough measurements and inspiration images, and Joséphine gives advice on layout, colour and furnishings. They suit clients outside North London or with busy diaries — one recent client in Scotland said the online sessions finally made the whole space work.

### Can you work alongside my architect and builder?
Yes, and often do. JLV Design has collaborated with architects including Nikki Blustin, Johanna Ahrberg Jackson and Enbee Architecture + Design. The architect leads the structure, while we handle colours, materials, lighting, joinery and furniture, and coordinate measurements, orders and questions with your builder and decorators.

### Do you manage the project and the trades?
On full design projects, yes. JLV Design handles measurements, orders, deliveries and coordination with contractors and trusted suppliers, and can introduce reliable trades such as kitchen designers, flooring specialists, curtain makers and carpenters. Clients often say this is what takes the stress out of a renovation.

### Can you help me choose paint colours and wallpaper?
Yes. Colour is at the heart of our work. A colour consultation gives you a room-by-room scheme with named paint shades, finishes and wallpaper suggestions, chosen for the light in each room and how you use it. Rooms stay distinctive while the whole house flows together.

### Do you design bespoke joinery and storage?
Yes. We design made-to-measure media units, bookcases, alcove cupboards, shelving, wardrobes and eaves storage, and produce drawings your carpenter can build from. We do not build joinery ourselves, but we can recommend carpenters we trust and answer their questions during the build.

### Can I keep my existing furniture?
Of course. Many schemes start with pieces you already own. On a Victorian house near Alexandra Palace, most of the clients’ furniture was kept, and in New Barnet we retained curtains and wallpapers and added second-hand 1960s finds. Good design is about editing, not replacing everything.

### Do you offer sustainable or eco-friendly interior design?
Yes. We have styled a deep-retrofit low-carbon house in Muswell Hill and refurbished a Finsbury Park flat using eco-minded paint, materials and panelling. Wherever possible we re-use, refinish and buy vintage or second-hand, which is kinder to both the planet and your budget.

### How long does an interior design project take?
A consultation is a single session, while a room scheme depends on how many rooms and decisions are involved. Larger renovations follow the build: several of our extension projects in Crouch End and Muswell Hill ran for about a year from early planning to final styling. We will agree a realistic timeline at the start.

### What is home staging, and do you offer it?
Home staging means preparing a property for sale or let so buyers can picture living there: decluttering, re-arranging furniture, and adding art, lighting and soft furnishings. JLV Design offers home styling and home staging across North London, and the same skills help newly renovated homes feel finished.

### When can I contact JLV Design?
Our studio hours are Monday to Friday, 9am to 6pm; we are closed at weekends. Call 07964 164799, email contact@jlv-design.co.uk, send a WhatsApp message, or book a consultation online. We are based at 17 Marriott Road, Muswell Hill, London N10 1JJ.
