"We originally hired [By Design Ltd.] to assist us with the final structural design work and design / furnishing of a home we purchased in Bermuda. Being on salt water we had unique requirements for durability, maintaining views, and selection of materials , both inside and outside. [By Design Ltd.] did such a good / creative job of working on interior layouts to take advantage of the Harbour views; and also designed magnificent custom millwork options that made every room pop...that we decided to make the two firm partners our on-island construction site managers. Their responsibility here was to meet regularly with the general contractor to ensure both quality construction and compliance with the building plans. This both saved us many trips to Bermuda and also yielded a superb final product. We continue to use [By Design Ltd.] for ongoing changes / updates and to recommend it to our friends both in Bermuda and around the world."

"Buying a home off plan in Bermuda while living away was not a wise decision we thought at the time. Well, our dilemma was solved when Jill Henneberger, By Design Ltd. took charge overseeing the project. She even recommended structural changes to meet our individual needs and designed a fabulous workable kitchen for us. Our existing furnishings were coordinated with new to create a lovely and livable home for our retirement. By Design’s talents and expertise are immeasurable."

"When we purchased our new home site in Bermuda we were at a loss to know how to begin the process of getting the design work done, configure the floor plan to our needs, have it furnished and start the process of making it our true Bermuda home. The design team at By Design Ltd. greatly assisted us every step of the way. From construction advice, room layout planning, to decorating, to furniture selection, art selection, shipping, etc., their knowledge and expertise helped us create the way of life in Bermuda that we were looking for. We were so impressed with their work on our Bermuda home that we retained them to assist with our design work needs at our home in Maryland and on other projects. The team at By Design Ltd. are truly talented professionals and we are very lucky to have found them."

"Having now completed two projects with By Design ltd., I cannot speak highly enough of their contribution. Their modus operandi is to get involved at the initial architectural briefing, submit imaginative, practical, costed recommendations and on receiving approval deliver the project on time and on budget . Jill Henneberger's hands-on management style means that she is always available for consultation and handles the inevitable change requests without missing a beat. Her taste is invariably impeccable and she has the ability to "read" client's own decorating style and make recommendations that reflect it.
Retaining By Design ltd. for our design and decorating needs has resulted in a relationship that has been pleasant, personal and productive."

“By Design Partner Jill Henneberger came up with a fabulous design for the complete renovation of a 1970s era apartment located in Bermuda. Jill went on to manage all aspects of the renovation project from advising on the selection of a general contractor with the necessary skills and experience to undertake such a significant renovation through to sourcing product, managing the budget and ensuring site meetings were efficient and timely. It simply would not have been possible to achieve such a high quality creative and functional outcome without Jill and By Design. We have been so happy with the work of Jill and By Design we have already recommended that team to our friends thinking of undertaking renovations. A first class job by a first class professional.”

“By Design ltd was hired to do the interior design of the entire house and to ensure it was magazine ready! They did an excellent job! They captured everything that I wanted and more. I found them be extremely patient, understanding and completely dedicated to the job. They handled the entire project from design board to ordering and finally staging of the house.
I would highly recommend this company to anyone who's looking for a magazine ready design. The principles which were Jill and Patti and the entire staff were a joy to work with”.
