don’t just take our word

Thanks to their unique combination of technical expertise and genuine passion, the A Designer at Heart team consistently delivers beyond expectations for their clients. We collaborated on numerous projects across Europe for Nido Living, and I’ve been impressed each time by their innovative approach, which is enabled by a diverse skill set and an open mindset, as well as their deep understanding of the sector’s dynamics. They always keep the end user in mind as well - residents and students were able to flourish academically and socially in our carefully designed spaces. I would highly recommend them to any operator or developer in the shared living and hospitality industries.

Working closely and collaboratively with A Designer at Heart, YourTRIBE have been able to create spaces within our buildings that break the norm of PBSA social amenity and community living spaces, creating amazing spaced that supports a membership and community-driven lifestyle.

This approach means we are able to build a network across our entire portfolio where every individual feels connected, supported, and empowered to thrive together.

Martina and the team at A Designer at Heart are a pleasure to work with. They produce really creative designs and pay close attention to the personality of the individual brands they create spaces for. Their attention to detail is amazing, both in the designs & the finishing, we’ve been delighted with all the projects they have delivered so far.

The best thing about working with Martina and the team is how collaborative the process is. The team involve key stakeholders across the business and somehow manage to incorporate everyone’s views without compromising the design. We love working with A Designer at Heart and highly recommend their services.

For 2 large Dutch PBSA Developments with a total of 1500 beds, MC2 Management has appointed A Designer at Heart for the interior design of all unit types and amenity spaces. The collaboration with ADAH was/is very efficient and professional which saves us a lot of time in our design process. We continue working with ADAH for our next PBSA developments and recommend ADAH as interior designers for efficient and professional collaboration.

From our first meeting, I could clearly see that Martina was not only a clever and talented designer but also very keen on improving herself in all aspects of design and her personal development. I believe she will have a great future in both architecture and interior design.

Stephanie Briggs, Director at Steph Briggs Design Melbourne

Thanks to her wide academic education and her personal attitude (lover of life, naturally curious, easily able to improve her skills), Martina has become an essential member of our team. I am sure that every company that will have her will be a lucky one.

Fabrizio Gurrado, Creative Director at IS Beijing

I would recommend Martina on the basis of her work ethic, timekeeping and above all her congenial personality. She has at all times been a team player and I'm sure given her drive she will be a success where ever she goes.
