Testimonials

What They Say

  • We identified M1nt in 2020, they really hit the ground running, I’m pleased to say that two years on they have delivered on all our requirements and are fully embedded within our team.

    CDS Group

  • We needed to identify a partner to deliver our Architectural service requirements. It was important to find someone who could react quickly to our customers ever changing demands as well as achieving our budgetary requirements and most importantly of all someone who could fit our culture.

    CDS Group

  • We worked with Helen to develop the furniture specification to match her designs, and then the team produced the technical drawings package for our contactor team to deliver the build works of the scheme. The result was one very happy client! It was a pleasure to work with the M1NT team throughout, and I could see that the client felt the same. I would not hesitate to work with the team again on any future projects.

    Penketh Group

  • We reached out to the M1NT Studio team when our client came to us with a new office. The concepts reflected exactly the level that the client wanted to achieve from an aesthetic and functionality point of view.

    Penketh Group

  • I don’t know what to say!!! These are amazing!! The guys were completely blown away by the ambition of the project and the impact it could have and we couldn't have done that without your designs. Thank you all so much for smashing this project and for all your hard work.

    Creative HUT

  • When we were planning our music/media room, our outlying vision was brought to life by M1NT. Their insight into specification was what pleased us most about their design. This was all brought together with attention to detail and genuine interest in the execution and finish.

    Matthew Evans

  • We’re really pleased with the designs, we think it will walk the 'tight rope' between an up-date with a modern twist, yet in-keeping with an old farmhouse, which is difficult to achieve.

    Graham and Janice

  • So slick and modern, just what I wanted. Thank you so much, it was a big risk as I’d never actually seen them up before, just went off a small fabric sample. It really did work out thank you, I trusted you.
