Testimonials

We have commissioned Emulsion to work on a number of projects for us including the permanent exhibition in Greenwich Peninsula’s Sales and Marketing building, and the entrance lobby, two terraces, gym and a cinema in one of our Upper Riverside residential buildings. It has been a real pleasure working with them. They are creative, inventive with their selection and use of materials and have good technical skills. They also think on their feet when it comes to resolving problems and are mindful of costs. We would be happy to continue working with them again on future projects.

Working with Emulsion was great – I appreciated their clear communication, strong design intent and experienced, guiding hand whilst all the time working in an inquisitive, curious and collaborative manner. They fulfilled our brief to them to design a best-in-class retail solution delivering high-level functionality, core aesthetics and cost-effectiveness. In doing so, they questioned the norm in the world of retail solutions by adopting a forensic approach to the design and development of a bespoke Derek Rose retail concept. Their design concept for us is space-efficient, flexible, cost effective, attractive and easy to execute on a global basis. The resulting feel of the store is sophisticated and friendly – an approachable environment where the primary focus is on the end-user experience – just as we wanted.

I was delighted that Emulsion Architecture won the competition to design the British Council’s new London reception gallery as I have admired their work for sometime. The process of working with Emulsion was a real pleasure. They were very good listeners, and dealt calmly and flexibly with the demands of the British Council – a somewhat complex organisation! They are excellent designers, and they bring a particularly interesting approach to the use of materials. I am looking forward to working with Emulsion again on future projects.

Thank you for helping us deliver such a great flagship store. I absolutely love it, it has exceeded all my expectations, and I am really thrilled with the results. Thanks for supporting my team and making the process so painless. It is always pleasure working with Emulsion, I truly feel I am in good hands with you and can leave you to get on with the job! I really appreciate how you have integrated all the parties involved, and made it possible to realise my vision and open without a single day’s delay.

We couldn’t recommend Emulsion more highly. They were true partners, and must take much of the credit for our project being such a success. At every stage they brought genuine creativity, technical know-how and an exceptional eye for detail that did more than just keep us on track, but ensured that the result was better than we ever could have imagined. They are a delight to work with.

Establishing my second Atelier in Liberty would not have been possible without Yen-Yen. Our partnership has been so fluid because, like me, she breaks the boundaries of what is expected within her industry and works with designers to produce one of a kind features. Not only is she an expert architect but she has a unique ability to completely transform a space and create an atmosphere and environment which encapsulates the ethos of a brand. For us that meant constructing a working space unlike any other salon – a light-drenched interior which is at once stylistically industrial, organic and artistic. With Yen-Yen and her team of creative collaborators I was confident that my vision would be realised – the beautiful finished space speaks for itself.

Josh Wood, Founder / Josh Wood Atelier

We worked with Emulsion on a complicated in-fill project. It involved both architecture and interior design. Yen-Yen and her team were excellent. They were patient, creative, cutting edge, and reliable. She proved she is a good listener and that’s important in a project.

Jason Blank, Co-Founder / Brockton Everlast

Yen-Yen and Michael were a joy to work with on our flat renovation – they guided us with advice and ideas even when we weren’t sure what we wanted. They offered thoughtful suggestions we hadn’t considered, and their beautiful architectural drawings made it easy to envision the final space. Thanks to their creativity and insight, we’re absolutely thrilled with the result.

I have worked with Michael Deeley and Emulsion on many projects for Apostrophe, from large-scale new store fit-outs to minor refurbishment of existing stores. Emulsion have been an integral part of the evolution of our brand, involved in much more than store design: for example, in the creation of a bespoke product display system and various marketing collateral. Michael and his team always consider all visual and practical elements that impact the final output. This is down to their holistic approach to architecture and design which as a client I really appreciate. Emulsion are easy to work with and do not take a high-handed approach, listening and taking on board the requirements and constraints of every project, always delivering design excellence.

Amir Chen, Ceo / Apostrophe Restaurants

Working with Emulsion on my renovation was a very satisfying experience. They took the time to understand what I wanted of the finished product and were faithful to the brief, whilst also managing to surprise and delight with creative, practical solutions. I was delighted – and continue to be delighted – with the finished product, which is cool, understated elegance personified.

Emulsion are always a pleasure to work with. They take a brief and never fail to return with something more dynamic than we had imagined. Working with them for several seasons to develop the RockVault exhibition at London Fashion Week, the arresting modernist designs have perfectly complemented the cutting-edge jewellery on show.

Sara Blonstein, Founder / Blonstein & Associates

Working with Emulsion has been a great experience with outstanding results each time, which has resulted in our brand and our company meeting and surpassing all the objectives. It is crucial to mention that Mike and his team have always managed throughout the projects to satisfy our needs and interests, facilitating smooth and speedy works with the least possible delays and costs. Our stores which we have worked on together have been based within the world class Canary Wharf estate which is considered as one of the most challenging environments to work in, with regards to enforcement of all regulations and working practices. The landlords exact the highest standards in all facets of projects and Emulsion have the skills and relationship skills to manage such situations and deliver. The design ideas solutions offered, coupled with an understanding of the workflow needs of the designs ensuring efficient use of labour and customer service make for a complete and encompassing package. We recommend Emulsion and the team.
