Laura Porter Interior Design

Well here is a delightful turnaround in this otherwise glum start to 2026!

I have never won 2 awards in one go, I am so pleased and grateful.

'Design' awards honour professionals whose work was the most popular among the Houzz community.

'Customer Service' honours are based on several factors, including LPID's overall rating on Houzz and client reviews submitted in 2025.

2026 marks the 12th consecutive year of LPID winning Best of Houzz for Service! Whoop whoop!

For all my brilliant customers who reviewed me and allowed me to share their projects in my growing portfolio of fabulous finished schemes I thank you from the bottom of my heart!

January has been challenging and like Pollyanna 'if you dont have anything nice to say, just say nothing at all' has been my motto.

So i'm sorry for the radio silence, life is messy, stuff gets complicated, sometimes work takes a back step.

Today I spent time accompanying my beautiful friend on a trip to Genesis Care in Southampton. She is powering through radiotherapy and im proud of you

Whilst I waited I read the gorgeous book 'The boy, the horse, the fox and the mole' by Charlie Makesy. This page made me take a sharp breath....

I would like to be less afraid. I'm a massive scaredy pants right now, life is scaring me, life with my teenagers, my volunteering journey, my business, 'the pause'....all of it is a lot.

But imagine how i would be if i was less afraid....
