Introducing Joanne

My Story

 Hello

I’ve loved interiors for as long as I can remember. As a child, I was always rearranging my bedroom — trying new layouts, colours, and little touches that made the space feel just right.  When I moved into my first flat in my twenties, that spark turned into a real passion.  I found myself completely absorbed in decorating and design, realising how much joy it brought me to create a home that truly felt like mine.

Years later, I decided to follow that passion properly and went back to university to study interior design. It was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made — it allowed me to turn something I’ve always loved into a career that helps others feel the same sense of home, happiness andwellbeing.

As a busy single mum of two (plus one very loveable cockapoo), I understand busy lives, emotional overload and the need for our homes to support, not demand.  I design moody, midimalist interiors for people who want their homes to feel as good as they look.  Think depth, texture and restraint – spaces with soul, not noise and a place that feels like a deep exhale.

JBD Philosophy

At Joanne Beale Designs, I believe great design starts with listening.  Every person, every family, every home has its own story, and my role is to help bring yours to life in a way that feels  intuitive and deeply personal — never formulaic.  

Working with an interior designer is a creative partnership, and a strong, trusting relationship is key to the process.  I approach every project with the same care and attention I’d give my own home — creating warm, thoughtfully crafted spaces that feel lived-in from day one.  Whether it’s a small refresh or a full transformation, my goal is always the same: to make the process feel easy, inspiring, and enjoyable from start to finish.

Because in the end, good design isn’t just about how a space looks — it’s about how it makes you feel.
