Client Testimonials
Working with SLMD was a great experience from start to finish. It is refreshing to work with a team with a professional yet friendly approach and a ‘can do’ attitude. From concept design to detailed specification the team provided valuable insights, commitment, and astute commerciality. We were very pleased with the team’s enthusiasm and fresh ideas. SLMD’s professionalism, expertise and support made fitting out our office space a much easier and less stressful process than anticipated. Nothing was too much trouble for them, they were able to rectify and accommodate changes as we made them, their finish has been to a high standard and the offices are really looking exceptional, we continue receiving many comments on the high quality and look and feel achieved. I would have no hesitation in recommending SLMD or to working with them again in the future.
Marion Franke | Director of Facilities | Frontier Economics
SLMD were impressive from the very start of our project and were engaged and diligent throughout. They digested our brief and ran the entire project extremely well. Their initial engagement with the senior members of our Dublin off ice was essential and the way that they presented their design options was very professional. SLMD further navigated us through a seamless procurement process, selecting a strong team for all aspects of our project, providing sound advice and were equally proactive and reactive when required which steered the project to a very successful conclusion. Key performance indicators were;
- Excellent sustainability awareness.
- Fantastic eye for detail.
- Superb project management.
- Highly aware and conscious of the entire project budget.
- Excellent presentations in person and across virtual platforms.
In summary I was thoroughly pleased and impressed with the performance of SLMD throughout our project
Steve House | Director of Facilities | Dechert
Elaine, Emily and Lawrence have been a pleasure to work with on this project. From the initial design stage all the way through to installation and final snagging, the service and level of professionalism has been excellent throughout. We would highly recommend SLMD for any large-scale rebranding projects and look forward to working together again in the future.
Anna Potter | Asset Manager | Bartra
Following the successful completion of an office fit out design in our Dundalk office, we engaged SLMD to assist with the graphic design of our internal signage, manifestations and artwork using the ABB brand guidelines in our Sandyford Office. The SLMD team worked professionally, interpreted the design brief and completed the installation within the agreed timeframe to a high standard. I would recommend SLMD to any company who is looking for a quality design service.
Amy Duke | Communications Manager | ABB
We employed the services of Lawrence McFarlane of SLMD for the refurbishment of our offices in Clonskeagh. From the outset, we were extremely pleased with the work. With a very professional approach, he listened, took on board our requirements and delivered a creative, tasteful and practical design for our offices. The project was then completed on time and within budget. As a result, Lawrence has completed some further projects within our office.
John Fagan | Chief Financial Officer | TVC Holdings
The fit-out of our new offices has been a truly transformative experience and we could not be more thrilled with the outcome. From the very first consultation, the SLMD team took the time to understand our vision, our culture, and the way we work. They didn’t just design an office; they created a space that reflects who we are as a business and where we are heading. Every step of the process was handled with professionalism, creativity, and attention to detail. Communication was clear and consistent; timelines were met without compromise to quality and every challenge was met with innovative solutions. The craftsmanship and finishes are of the highest standard with thoughtful design touches, from the flow of the space to the choice of materials making a huge difference to how the space feels and functions. The new layout has already boosted collaboration, productivity, and morale among our team. Our clients, who visit are consistently impressed, often commenting on the warm yet professional atmosphere. This isn’t just an office, it’s a space that inspires, energises, and reflects our brand at its very best. We are grateful for the dedication, skill, and passion the team poured into this project, and we would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for an office fit-out that goes beyond the ordinary.

The project was completed on time and within budget, with excellent communication and project management throughout. What stood out most was the personal attention and diligence provided by Lawrence and the team, who consistently went above and beyond to ensure every aspect of the fit-out met our expectations. We are extremely pleased with the finished space and would have no hesitation in recommending SLMD to any organisation seeking a high-quality office fit-out partner.
