What our Clients say

  • Magda and Pride Road were brilliant. Ours was a smallish but also fairly unusual job: adding a new door from our basement to the garden, including some digging down. Pride Road came up with a really clever design that made the most out of a relatively small space, including a new three quarter height boiler room. They also advised on how to manage the process with engineers (given it involved some underpinning we wanted to be absolutely sure everything would be fully structurally sound). We are so happy with the end result.

  • The preparatory work and, ‘on the spot’, thinking through of ideas that Magda carried out were very helpful in giving a clear vision of possible design and change solutions. Beforehand I did not really grasp the workshop concept that was proposed, but the experience was very informative and thought provoking. Overall, a highly recommended exercise.
    I consulted Magda in 2018 to develop my kitchen, cloakroom and cellar. She managed to create space and functionality where I couldn’t. She has a very logical and creative way of working which I found very stimulating and enjoyable. Magda was responsive and clearly is a believer in including her clients in the process. I would definitely recommend Magda and Pride Road.

  • Great experience, well worth the time and cost. Magda took us through various options, checking on our thoughts and ideas throughout and making really useful suggestions, drawing on experience of past projects. We now have fine decisions to make but it’s great to know what works and how it could look! Looking forward to bringing the plans to life! Thank you Magda!

  • Lisa designed a beautiful refurbishment of my apartment and it has increased in value by adding extra bedroom and bathroom and a gorgeous open plan kitchen living space. Thank you Lisa and the Pride Road team
