Our interior design work combines creative thinking with technical know-how, creating spaces where people can live, work, learn and spend time. Across Leicestershire and the Midlands, we work on residential layouts and commercial interiors as well as museums and exhibitions, including design coordination and Building Regulations where required.
Interior Design Portfolio
The portfolio covers everything from residential layouts and commercial spaces to museums and exhibitions, with projects completed across the Midlands, throughout the UK and further afield.

What We Do
A successful interior needs to work for the people using it as well as look right. We start by understanding how the space will be used, what needs to change and any practical or technical requirements that will influence the design.
Projects can involve anything from reworking a residential floor layout to developing commercial interiors, exhibitions and museum spaces. Depending on the brief, this may include layouts, finish and colour schemes, 2D and 3D CAD work, design coordination and detailed information for contractors and suppliers.
Larger or more technical projects can also involve Building Regulations, structural calculations and coordination with other specialists. This allows the design and technical requirements to be considered together rather than treated as separate parts of the project.
FAQs about Interior Design
