design and delivery

why hire an interior designer?
knowledge and experience
You have the ideas, we translate them into a cohesive design that fits your home, budget and lifestyle. With expertise in proportions, colour schemes and materials.
certainty upfront
A sofa that doesn't fit, colours that disappoint, a cabinet that's too wide. We prevent costly mistakes by checking what works before you commit.
time and peace of mind
Visiting showrooms, coordinating suppliers, tracking deliveries. An interior project takes far more time than you expect. We handle this for you.
- your interior, your choice -
Not everyone needs the same level of service. That's why we offer three options:
clients about choc studio
"Our new-build house had turned out beautifully, but it still needed an interior to match. After some searching we found Choc Studio. Julia and Robbert created several plans, which we eventually combined into one. With their smart ideas they turned our house into a home, something we could never have achieved on our own. We are still impressed by the result."
"When we realised that an interior architect could take our new home to the next level, we started looking and found Choc Studio in Haarlem. Everything we saw on their website appealed to us, so we booked an appointment. From the very first meeting, we knew it was the right choice. We already loved the stylish, contemporary atmosphere in the 3D proposals but now that we live in it, it’s even better."
"We admired the work of several interior designers, but we didn’t want too much bling. It still had to feel like our home, not the architect’s. At Choc Studio in Haarlem we found an atmosphere that resonated with us. They created a warm and liveable interior: classic with a modern chic twist, perfectly suited to who we are."
"We moved into our new house and bought some furniture, but it never really felt cosy and we couldn’t figure out why. After a few years of struggling, we decided we needed professional help from an interior designer. Choc Studio lifted our entire interior to the next level and struck exactly the right tone."
"I wanted to give my new home a high-end upgrade and decided to call in Choc Studio. I’ve known Robbert and Julia for some time, and they beautifully designed my previous home as well. Choc Studio listened carefully and translated my wishes into clear interior advice for this house. We quickly agreed that gold would add the glamour touch I was looking for. Subtle enough not to be kitsch, yet present enough to create a sense of richness."
"We’re usually very hands-on and don’t easily hand things over. But for the design of our home we placed our full trust in these interior designers. During his very first visit Robbert came up with ideas we immediately embraced. That is the real value of working with professionals: they bring solutions you didn’t even know were possible."
"I’m very happy I chose to work with Choc Studio. At first I only intended to outsource the living area, but it quickly became clear that the kitchen and bathroom had to be included too. In the end I handed everything over. Choc Studio coordinated the plumber, electrician, painter, wallpaperer and more - and even moved, unpacked and styled everything for me."
"I immediately clicked with Choc Studio and felt confident I could leave everything in their hands. Within a month, under Robbert’s direction, the entire house was renovated and Sanne and I were able to move into our new home. That first moment I had the remarkable feeling of stepping straight into Choc’s 3D design - a very special experience. The result is truly beautiful."
"Right after buying the property we went straight to Choc Studio. They had beautifully designed our previous home in Haarlem, so we knew they would make the most of this one too, as it was delivered as a bare shell. Julia and Robbert did brilliant work here, they literally thought of everything in this house."
"The moment we visited the design studio in Haarlem, we were sold. The style and atmosphere were exactly what we were looking for. Julia and Robbert advised and guided us wonderfully, understanding perfectly what we wanted. In the final days before moving in, Choc Studio placed and styled everything. We were overwhelmed. It was even more beautiful than we had imagined."
