Welcome to The Sussex Home Stylist…
The Sussex Home Stylist is run by me, Hannah Searle. My aim is to make beautiful homes both accessible and affordable. It honestly doesn’t need to cost you a fortune to have a lovely home that feels the way you want it to. I help my clients in lots of difference ways, from just being someone to chat ideas through and help them come alive, to a full service design, project management and build project. Just one room, or a whole house.
I am hugely passionate, and get an enormous kick out of helping people to re-love their homes again. Taking the things that are loved in a home and helping to pull them together along with new additions, creating a personalised space that is more beautiful, functional and suitable to each client’s individual needs.
I am based in West Sussex, covering all of the Sussex area and also provide an online design service that is suitable for people further afield.

Feedback from our Clients
I have found Hannah personable, patient and efficient throughout . Easy to have in the house and to share ideas and preferences with. First time I have used a designer - wish I had done it years ago.
We really enjoyed working with Hannah. She helped us redecorate all the rooms in our house. She listened carefully to our likes and dislikes and incorporated existing furniture into a lot of the new designs. I really like that she suggests affordable products from the likes of IKEA and Dunelm. We are so happy with the designs that Hannah created and would not hesitate to use her services again.
I had some ideas for how I wanted the space to look and feel but just didn't have the confidence and knowledge to bring it together, but with Hannah's help we have incorporated our ideas and some pieces of our furniture with so many of Hannah's great recommendations that I would never have thought of or even considered.
Hannah is amazing! Undertaking the full renovation of a Grade I Regency apartment, I wanted a modern space with a very sympathetic view to this classical style. Hannah took the brief and worked her magic with lovely touches of the past in every room. It is now a homely, seaside paradise.
“Lockdown made us realise how much our kitchen needed updating. Hannah was able to give us guidance after a virtual consultation. We are so pleased with the results, for very little money our tired kitchen has been refreshed. It now feels modern and airy, the perfect hub to our family home.”
“Hannah re-invigorated our ten year old son’s bedroom. It’s a long narrow room and always a bit dull. Hannah has transformed it into a cool space with great use of light. Focusing on the things my son loves, whilst blending into the rest of our period home. I could never have envisaged the result. We are over the moon with the design and look forward to using Hannah’s skills in future projects. Such a lovely person to work with.”
“Hannah had great vision to see where we could use existing furniture within a redesigned and painted room, without going to the expense of buying new. Frankly it saved us a lot of money! Without hesitation, we would recommend!”
“Hannah helped me with the layout and colour of a couple of rooms in our house. Her attention to detail, mood boards and understanding of what we were looking for, without us being able to properly describe it was brilliant. I’d strongly recommend The Sussex Home Stylist.”
We liked Hannah's holistic approach to design: taking our health needs and interests into account while considering the function and form of spaces. Hannah is flexible and very personable, which meant it felt very comfortable having her in our home.
We were very happy with the designs - Hannah pretty much nailed our style right off the bat with minimal changes needed. It was incredibly useful to receive a shopping list of products and to have guidance on high-quality tradespeople, who completed the necessary works to a good standard.
