Dream Design is a luxury kitchen, bathroom and interior design centre in Dorset, creating one-of-a-kind private residences across Dorset, Hampshire, Poole, the UK and internationally.

Founded in 1984, Dream Design has developed from a specialist design business into a complete residential design destination, combining a 5,000 sq ft Design Centre with an award-winning interior architecture and interior design studio.

The business specialises in bespoke kitchens, bathrooms, bedrooms, living spaces and complete home design, supporting private clients, architects and developers with a highly considered approach to residential design, specification and project delivery.

The Design Centre in Dorset brings together leading brands and specialist ateliers across kitchens, bathrooms, appliances, surfaces, lighting, furniture and interior architectural systems. Arranged across two floors, it allows clients to experience full-scale room settings, materials, finishes and design details in person, giving each project a clear and practical foundation from the beginning.

Design Studio

Dream Design’s interior architecture and design studio supports more complex residential projects, including new-build homes, refurbishments and complete interiors. The studio works closely with clients, architects and wider project teams to ensure spatial planning, material continuity, lighting, furniture and detailed specification are considered together.

At the heart of every project is a director-led, highly personal design process, with a fundamental belief that every successful home is shaped by hundreds of decisions made well. The studio’s approach is built around proportion, flow, material quality, technical detail and understanding how each client wants to live.

What Makes Dream Design Different

Dream Design combines the experience of a long-established design business with the practical benefit of a physical Design Centre. Clients can explore kitchens, bathrooms, furniture, lighting, surfaces, appliances and interior details under one roof, while also receiving the guidance of a specialist design team.

The business works with leading international brands and specialist ateliers, allowing each project to be tailored through a wide range of materials, finishes and technical solutions.

This combination of design judgement, product knowledge and specification experience gives clients a clear route from early ideas through to detailed project delivery.

Clients and Locations

Based in Christchurch, Dorset, Dream Design works with private clients, architects and property developers on private residences across the UK and internationally.

Many client relationships continue across successive homes and generations, reflecting the trust built through careful listening, practical experience and a clear understanding of how each client wants to live.

Projects range from substantial coastal homes in Sandbanks and London townhouses to heritage properties in the Home Counties, with further projects completed in Spain, Antigua and Switzerland.

Guild Anderson is driven by the simple goal of doing justice to period architecture by designing rooms which sit comfortably in their surroundings and last forever.

Empathy. The Cornerstone of Good Design.

The company’s guiding principle centres around empathy for both client and architecture. By listening to the needs of both, it can design rooms which complement architecture without overshadowing it. Combining this with a forensic examination of its client’s lives, the company is able tread the fine line between sympathetic aesthetics and deep practicality.

Rooms with Purpose

The rooms Guild Anderson creates are there to be used. To be there for their client’s family journey. To be dented, scuffed and enriched with the hallmarks of daily life. To tell stories. And, after a few years perhaps, given a fresh coat of paint ready for the next generation to enjoy. To this end, the company creates rooms with purpose and rooms with soul, not simply rooms to be admired.

Awards with Interior Designers

Close collaboration with interior designers forms an important part of Guild Anderson’s success. The company embraces such collaboration, with its recent partnership with Salvesen Graham being awarded a Bespoke Guild Mark by The Furniture Makers’ Company for their collective work at Trewithen, a Grade I listed Palladian house in Cornwall. Further recent projects alongside Max Rollitt, Guy Goodfellow, Craig Hamilton Architects and Adam Architecture are also being admired.

Designed to Endure

The companies knowledge and understanding for classical proportion, shadow and scale, combined with deep interest in how modern families can live in period houses, allows it to create rooms which look like they belong, rooms which function exceptionally well, and rooms which last for lifetimes.
