ABOUT US
​
We're Beth and Jon Miller, a husband-and-wife design team based in Leeds, working with homeowners across Yorkshire to create spaces that feel thoughtful, calm and genuinely lived-in.
Twenty years of renovating our own homes in our spare time taught us that making the right changes, in the right order, with the right people, changes not just a house but the life going on inside it.
In 2018, we decided to make that our full-time work. Fresh Start Living was born out of our own fresh start — leaving London, and our old careers, to start afresh in Yorkshire
We believe great design starts with understanding how you really use your home — the rhythms, the habits, the chaos and the calm. Whether you know exactly what you want but not how to get there, don't have the time to manage it yourself, or just want it done right without the stress — that's what we're here for.
​
Our values:
-
Clarity & simplicity — renovation decisions shouldn't feel overwhelming; we guide you step-by-step.
-
Homes that support real life — spaces that feel as good to live in as they look.
-
Access for everyone — you don't need to "know" interiors to have a beautiful home.
-
Local knowledge, local care — based in Leeds, we know and love the homes and people of Yorkshire.
We cover Leeds and the surrounding areas, including Harrogate and York, plus a remote design service for anywhere further afield.
“We had recently moved house and wanted to renovate our entire downstairs - I didn't know where to start so I made contact with Beth & Jon who were an absolute dream to work with from start to finish. They were true professionals and took the time to work out the right look and feel for us before engaging us fully in the planning and implementation stages. Some of the suggestions they made, such as converting a cupboard to a pantry and pocket fold doors, were ones we would never have thought of ourselves and have been amazing additions!”
