Aleksa Glancy
Design Director
Aleksa’s ethos is that each individual project is a collaboration and her role is to design something that will be a reflection of the client and their desired lifestyle.
Watching her father at the drawing board and being educated in a creative environment has given Aleksa a passion for design, particularly residential.
She graduated from Manchester Metropolitan University with a degree in Interior Architecture and went on to work in London across various professions that were all connected to the residential market and home improvements.
In 2003 she became an Associate Director of Back to Front Exterior Design, and spent over ten years working on bespoke, high-end residential renovation and extension schemes.
All of this experience in Architecture, Interior Design, Contracting and Project Management has given her a deep understanding of design in the residential market and the ability to guide projects to a successful conclusion for all involved. She has also gained a wealth of excellent contacts and associates to recommend to clients.
Chrissy Sharrard
Business and Marketing Manager
Chrissy’s love for the role and belief in the business has helped the company go from strength to strength. Her gift for customer relations, strength in account management and her super organisational skills keep everything running smoothly so that Aleksa can focus on her passion for design.
Chrissy graduated from Birmingham University with a degree in Sports Science and went on to work for a high-end health club in London as a Fitness Instructor. It was whilst doing this that she discovered her passion for helping people achieve the results they desire. She progressed to managing health clubs and then moved into a role as an Account Manager for a fitness equipment company.
Whilst on maternity leave with her first child, she was made redundant from this role. Thankfully, serendipity intervened as Aleksa, who Chrissy knew through NCT, was searching for someone to work part-time and help her with the running of her burgeoning design company.
(Ambassador) Annie
Past life in quite a fast paced career, we are lucky enough to have coaxed her out of retirement to come and work in the office. Main responsibility keeping the workers calm and sofa warm. Ready to break free for a sprint at any moment, has been known to fall asleep on the job.
