Jill Hardisty, owner and founder of The Styled Nest, is a Manchester-based interior designer focussing mainly on residential projects.

With a fresh and contemporary take on traditional English interiors, clients can expect a design unique to their tastes, whether a single room or an entire home.

Inspired by the traditional English houses of the past as well as more contemporary design, Jill loves to combine these elements to create homely, distinctive and soulful spaces. By mixing old with new and creating a layered, comfortable scheme you can be assured your home will stand the test of time.

"I have a love for feminine and traditional interior design but mixed in with more contemporary unexpected elements. I love to use contemporary artwork with antiques, modern fabrics mixed with heritage paint colours or vintage lighting with iconic furniture. By weaving colour and bold fabrics into my schemes pared with easy and relaxed furniture I create homes that are informal, homely and comfortable.”
