TSB today announces that it has partnered with Dulux to offer Brits a free online interior design service to help Home Improvement loan customers transform a room in their home.

The online interior design service, called Dulux Amazing Space, enables people to create an affordable, accessible living space - blending together elements of their personality, tastes and budget to create a room design that is unique to them.

From now until October 18 2016, customers taking out a TSB Home Improvement Loan will receive a free online interior design consultation with a Design Expert from Dulux Amazing Space, for one room in their home. They'll be asked to share their style preferences and pictures of the room they want to makeover, and a Dulux Design Expert will suggest designs, colour schemes and furniture and accessory ideas - based on the customer's preferences. At the end, they'll get a 3D visualisation of their room, a style guide plus an interactive shopping list - so they'll have everything they need to create their ideal room within their budget.

Nick Smith, Head of Personal Loans at TSB , says: 'Our home improvement loan offers customers the money to renovate their home, but we wanted to add something extra to help them make the most of their borrowing. And that's why we've partnered with Dulux Amazing Space.'

According to Dulux research, a whopping 59% of homeowners think they would not be able to afford the luxury of an interior designer, with over three quarters admitting they've decorated only once in the past five years, citing lack of money and time as the main reasons.

Raj Sahota, Head of Dulux Amazing Space , comments, 'Amazing Space is unique in the way that it combines useful tech with real interior designers who provide personalised face to face advice to customers. This is unprecedented in the market and we are delighted to be partnering with TSB to offer this exciting service to borrowers who are about to embark on improving their home.'

TSB currently offers 5-star Defaqto rated Home Improvement loans with rates from just 3.9% APR representative on loans of £7,500 to £25,000 from 1 - 5 years. The offer is available for customers who apply for a TSB personal loan and select 'home improvement' as the loan purpose.
