Howson Design
Giving homes a heartbeat..
Our mission is to create individual and bespoke spaces that have a timeless unique edge, allowing people to revel in a home that captures everyday joy and warmth.
Founded by Katy Raywood, Howson Design is a Nottinghamshire interior design practice with a focus on timeless, sustainable style. We take pride in creating stunning spaces that reflect your unique style and vision. Our comprehensive range of services is tailored to meet all your interior design needs, ensuring a seamless and stress-free experience from concept to completion. We work on both residential and commercial projects and collaborate seamlessly with trusted trades to bring your vision to life.
When I look at a room I paint a picture in my imagination, envisaging a space that not only looks beautiful, but works for its inhabitants. The first step is to understand my client’s needs and desires, and then interpret these in a way that triggers emotion and feelings. Every room should be joyous, unique and individual. Spaces should not just be lived in, they should reflect the people that live in them.

Katy is an inspiration and provides a truly professional service from start to finish. She’s been patient and responsive to my requirements and sensitive to my budget too. Don’t think that using her service is going to force you to take decisions out of your comfort zone. She’s a great listener and responded to my requests. I was provided choices throughout the process and so pleased with the final room design. She’s transformed a man cave in to a welcoming home bar.

I have worked with Katy on several projects. In her role as an interior designer she is great to work with, very clear & professional in communicating what she’d like us to do, while giving us the opportunity to have genuine input into the quality build. Ian Jones.

Katy had a wonderful, clear vision, that she shaped around our initial thoughts, the results far exceeded our expectations. Always exceptionally professional, approachable and patient with us.

Was renovating kitchen, dining room and living room. Had some ideas but needed validation and some guidance which Katy provided very efficiently. She organised trades and helped in almost all aspects of the project. She was more than helpful and always willing to look at alternatives we proposed. I would definitely use her services again
