Highgate House

Over the past 18 months we have had the pleasure of working with Highgate House on the interior design of our newly renovated home. The experience was enjoyable and stress-free from start to finish. Throughout the project, Leigh, Ashlee and the rest of the Highgate House team demonstrated expertise and a keen understanding of our vision and needs. They were always professional, met our required deadlines and budget, and communicated effectively with us. All our questions and concerns were addressed promptly and efficiently. The designers created stunning yet functional spaces. Each room is so beautiful and elegant. Highgate House exceeded our expectations with their creativity, professionalism, understanding and dedication to delivering outstanding results. We are delighted with our new home. Thank you Leigh, Ashlee and the HH team. You are all amazing! Kate

As QLD State Manager for Unique Fabrics I have personally known and worked with Highgate House for more than two decades. Highgate House are known for their transformation of some of Australia's finest homes. Building on their solid reputation for the highest standards of quality, interior design and decorating. Highgate House has the ability to translate individual style and ideas into well designed and visually appealing spaces. I know that the professional services provided by the carefully selected team guide and manage many different projects within the specified time frame and budget. I always find it a great pleasure to work with Highgate House in collaboration on new projects. I highly recommend them as they always deliver a superb result!

Wyer and Craw have collaborated with Leigh Boswell and her team at Highgate house on many significant projects for decades. Leigh and her team have a passion and drive to create beautiful well proportioned spaces, using quality products that will ultimately stand the test of time. We always look forward to our next project with Highgate House.

Recently I have had my lounge and dining room styled and decorated by Highgate House. I received excellent advice and guidance by very professional staff. They helped me choose fabrics and accessories to decorate my rooms and when pillows and lamps arrived they came to the house and offered suggestions to enhance the furniture. I was very happy with my choice of Designer and can highly recommend the business to anyone who needs guidance.

We here at Elite Bathware & Tiles have been working closely with Leigh and the Highgate House team for many years now. In our opinion there is one essential ingredient to achieve success in business - and that is passion. A passion for design is something Leigh has in abundance, additionally (and maybe more importantly) she has an eye for perfection in aesthetic and innovation. This vision is naturally passed on to her creative team. We enjoy working with the HH team because they make our sales process more exciting. They take care to make every clients job as individual as possible, which consistently challenges us to extend and improve our ranges to keep up with their expectations. It has not been surprising to see the great success of this company.

Thank you to Leigh Boswell, Dean Maguire, and staff in the Highgate House (HH) team for conceptualising, transforming and bringing our riverside apartment into the new decade.... and in time for Christmas! - Our first full renovation at 60 years of age was a Christmas gift like no other. Friends sum up our 4 month renovation: “a completely changed, transformed and understated apartment with class”; “a spectacular, sophisticated and elegant home that feels like a luxurious hotel”; and with “high quality cabinetry, craftsmanship, tiling, painting and building works”. Leigh, Dean and their kitchen/cabinetry and building company liaised together and with us, to totally redesign, renew and significantly improve our 3 bedroom apartment - colour & paint selections; selection and installation of wooden flooring & carpets, opening up of kitchen, wall removal, configuration of cabinetry & electrical goods, lighting design and cabinetry & bench top selections in kitchen, bathrooms and laundry ; and sourcing & selection of: floor and wall tiles, sanitary ware, mirrors; dining & lounge furniture, rugs, soft furnishings and light fittings throughout.

Thank you to the team and all involved for the fun, excitement and “joy” in selecting goods, for the outstanding quality of all aspects of our renovation, and for your passion and tireless efforts to deliver our apartment ready within the tight 4 month timeframe. The final icing on the cake was the joy of coming”home” and discovering all of the new spaces and added design touches installed by Leigh, Dean and Chelsea, and the coordinated hanging of art works and mirrors/ blinds, etc. We will enjoy our retirement living- grateful for the experience and gifts of design, quality and commitment from Highgate House. Sincerely & in appreciation, Paul Cooke@ Newstead, Brisbane

Thank you Highgate House for our installation yesterday all executed so professionally and with laughs in between. It was like watching a beautiful puzzle fall into place, at our home. We don’t see/hear the decisions made, the ordering, the hold up glitches, the time taken to present to us on numerous occasions, yet we savour the finishing effects. We have proceeded to sit in all chairs/sofas, lounge in each space, run our hands over the luxe fabrics and marvel at the next level you have taken this home to. We expected you all to do that, fill the home with what it needed. It’s worth reminding you all, in front and behind the scenes what joy your work brings. We hope you love what you do, because we do. Our home is testament to your teamwork, talent, attention to detail and aesthetic gifts. We could not be more content, joyful or appreciative of all your work over the last two years to arrive at where we are sitting now.

We were highly impressed with Bri, Leigh and team on our large renovation. They were able to guide us through the process in a manner which eased the burden.

Leigh Boswell and her very effective team at Highgate House create beautiful, luxurious and timeless homes. Leigh’s eye for detail has kept Highgate House at the forefront of interior design in the Brisbane region. The professional manner that the team goes about their business ensures that every job is completed to the highest standards and in a timely manner.

We engaged Highgate House to design and supply our window treatments, wallpaper, floor coverings, internal and external colour schemes, light fittings and most of the furnishings in our custom built house. The result is truly outstanding. Because of Highgate House our house is a home and a joy to be in and to return to each day. They provide exceptional advice and service. The owner and staff were as excited with our project as if it were their own. Every day we are pleased we engaged their professional services. Happily, their service continues after installation if necessary.

Leigh Boswell and her team has worked with myself and my husband over the past 10 years. Our first home was relatively small and Leigh certainly was able to bring sophistication and style to our Queenslander. We have since moved and renovated a much larger home. Leigh has been responsible for all of our interior and exterior furnishings and styling. I work full time with teenage children and am challenged when it comes to pulling together style. I know my limits so I rely on Leigh to ensure my home is welcoming, modern and sophisticated. When we renovated 5 years ago, I cannot tell you the immense joy coming home from work and seeing a fully furnished home looking amazing. Five years on, our home continues to be modern and timeless. We have added art and a few key pieces (all from Highgate House) refreshing the look - Leigh is a partner who has come to know what we like and understands what we need to do. The best thing about Leigh is that she is with you over time and knows that the right look is an investment. It takes money and time - and is worth every penny. Thank you Leigh - we look forward to finalising the formal lounge and dining room in 2014.

We engaged Leigh and her team at Highgate House having seen what she had achieved for friends. We had an incredibly tight timeframe to fit out a large beach house to allow us to celebrate Christmas with our extended family. Leigh exceeded our expectations with her professionalism and expertise, while remaining incredibly caring. From the initial measure through the planning to the installation every small detail was attended to. Leigh's planning is reflected in a very functional relaxed and yet beautiful home that continues to delight each time we visit.
