About Amy Cooney
Creating art and designing spaces has been a passion of mine from a young age. I established my first portfolio of art at age 12 and had created a collection. Focused and driven towards the art and design industry, I studied Interior & furniture design at Colaiste Dhulaigh. I then progressed to the University of Wolverhampton and acquired my BA Degree in Spatial Design. Furthering my education continuously, I attended the KLC School of Design in London and developed further freehand drawing and rendering skills. All the while working on my work, artists collect works of art.
In 2017 I embarked on a course at the Dublin Art Therapy College. Art therapy is an effective therapeutic and diagnostic tool. Studying art therapy assisted me with developing interpersonal relationships and clear boundaries so I can connect and establish clearer briefs with my clients.
I have worked on many commercial Interior Design projects, specializing in restoration and conservation. I value and respect each architectural structure and I enjoy reviving and striving to bring a property to its former glory or maintaining its high standard. I have over 20 years experience working in the Interior Design Industry.
As an Interior design, my strength as a colour consultant was always present throughout my career and was sought after. I was consulted about colour on each project I was involved in and the palettes I would select where desirable.
Creating art is ongoing. I am always developing and nurturing my style of art. You can view my work at the Merrion Square open air art gallery in Dublin or at my studio in Ballyboughal by appointment.

“We have had the pleasure of working with Amy when she helped us with some interior design work on our home. Amy provided us with a portfolio of ideas and designs to turn A house into our home. I can honestly say she had a wonderful way of just knowing exactly what we were looking for and this was just perfect for us. Amy is a very hard-working and dedicated person. She really gets to know you as a couple. She really listened to our ideas, it’s more personal, we really appreciated that. She always coordinated meetings with us well and her work which she presented to us was completed to the highest standard and was highly professional. Amy is a very talented Interior designer. Thank you for all your amazing work”
