LEARN MORE ABOUT THE TEAM

Interior & Spatial Designers based in Christchurch working all across New Zealand

Lisa Hurley and her team at LH Design have been working in Canterbury homes for over 30 years. Lisa’s mission is to work with people to make their spaces not only beautiful but also functional. Lisa knows that good design is timeless and so she works together with her clients to produce results that will look good for years to come.

It’s a good idea to have an Interior Designer working alongside you to offer you a sounding board. At LH Design, we can be as detailed as the project requires. We pride ourselves on tuning in to what you and the project require and adapt the consulting role to suit.

WHAT WE DO


Our Process

We are a team of four in the LH Design Studio, together we bring different skills to each project. Our interior designers, spatial designer and admin assistant have the ability to draw up concepts in 3D, source materials, document information and manage our work through to installation.

GET IN TOUCH WITH LISA

Chat With Us

We start with a complementary meeting either in our studio, on site or in your own home to establish cost & timeframes.

Create The Brief

After we’ve gathered the right information from you or any other trades/designers involved in the project we create a scope of works.

Concept Presentation

We get to crafting; we source materials, products and samples to present with our several design concepts.

Design Development

We take feedback and work though the finer details for a well-rounded outcome. Then document this for you and all trades.

Follow Through

Following the project right through to completion is where we can make the process seamless for everyone involved.

Lisa listens to what her clients' want, and presents them with colour and texture inspiration for their project in a style that works with their brief. She loves working with people to achieve their interior design dreams!

About Lisa Hurley

Colour and design have always been a lifelong passion of Lisa’s. Between drawing, painting, renovating and landscaping, design is Lisa’s expertise. She spent several years living in Europe, learning, working and soaking up the culture. Lisa gained practical skills from experts by sewing curtains & soft furnishings. Lisa prides herself on thoughtful design principles and having appropriate information on hand.

Our lifestyles are forever changing from working, first home-owners to years of raising children and/or pets and then retirement, these all require different spaces to live and work in where intentional design is pivotal


By getting professional help to pinpoint the detail that matters to you, together we form a brief outlining your current lifestyle, with this information we can help you move forward and make decisions.

30 years later...we are still using her!

“Lisa is friendly and very good at what she does. We have used her 3 or 4 times over 30 years. And this is the 3 rd house she has helped us on. She has taken care of interior and exterior surfaces. She does listen. And is happy to share the input and listen to what you would like. Willing to follow up on suggestions. Another thing I like is that she includes my husband in on the process and gets him making decisions. 

A friend introduced me to Lisa 30 years ago and recommended her to me. She was very impressed by the help she got in furniture placement within her home. And so suggested I use her. As I said 30 years later…”

Gets alongside you and works with you!

“Lisa is great to work with! She has assisted me in the colours for the kitchen and lounge, furniture placement and also with curtains. She is very helpful and she listens! She gets a good grasp of you as a person and she gets alongside and works with you. I like how she deals with people and a great personality. 

I went to one of her small space designs that she has on Mandeville Street. I liked how she spoke about what she did and I was drawn to the things she had on display.”
