Welcome
You know exactly how good it could be.
You also know you can’t get it there alone.
Interior Couture is a friendly London interior design studio with a European sensibility. For twenty years we have designed layered, storied homes for clients (often many homes!) who know what they love but need someone to bring it to life, and to manage everything it takes to get there.
What to do next?
If you’d like to chat with us, free of obligation, then either get in touch using the details below, or fill in the form.
If you can, send us your plans, any images you have of the property, and any links to places you’ve stored any ideas you may have, such as Pinterest, Instagram, Dropbox etc, along with details you think we’ll need to know, and, if possible, your budget.
We’ll look at what you’ve sent, then set up a zoom call to talk it through with you. Normally, we can identify at the outset if you’ll need permissions, or will be subject to building control regulations, let you know if you’ll need an architect or structural engineer, and be able to give you ideas on spatial planning and, maybe, a budget bracket for those works. Interior Design costs are more flexible, so that part depends a little more on your aspirations for the property and your constraints. We can talk all of that through in our first call, and we’ll also be able to let you know broadly what our fees would be, so you'd have an overall costing
If we feel we can’t be useful to you, either because we're not a design fit, or we can’t price to your outline budget, we’ll be able to let you know straightaway
Then, if you’d like to take it further, we’d set up our first site visit, and after that meeting confirm our timeline for the project, both design and implementation, and our fees and terms in writing. If you accept, we conclude the paperwork and open up your client portal, so you can monitor the project easily at your end, see what decisions you are being asked to make, and how the budget and expenditure is progressing.

What working with us actually means
I. A home that feels layered and considered, not designed by committee.
II. Any period architecture respected and enhanced, never erased. Contemporary homes given layered warmth, character and ambience
III. Full project management. Contractors, trades, timelines and budgets are ours to handle. You stay as involved as you choose.
IV. One designer, start to finish, meaning great communication. No handoffs, no formula, no fuss.
V. A client portal that lets you see exactly what is happening on your project, which you can access from anywhere, giving you peace of mind.
