THE STUDIO
Anouska established the London based Studio in 2015 with the founding inspiration to create deeply intimate homes that tell a personal story and act as an expressive backdrop to daily life, playful moments and gatherings with family and friends that become fondly recalled memories. The Studio’s work is often selected for House & Garden’s ‘Best of The List’ feature and has been selected as one of Country and Townhouse’s Fifty Finest Interior Designers.
Offering in-depth, tailored advice, the Studio undertakes diverse projects ranging from interior decoration to full-scale renovations and extensions, frequently leading the on-site co-ordination with our trusted decorators and general contractor. We really enjoy getting stuck into larger transformations and typically undertake the redesign of three or four key rooms if not overseeing the refurbishment of the whole home. There are exceptions and if a client wishes to invest in doing something special in a significant room, such as a kitchen, we are certainly open to exploring whether we might be a good fit for their project.
The breadth of service includes kitchen and bathroom design, custom joinery specification and, lighting and electrical layout planning. We’re able to produce technical drawings for communicating the design intention to the lead contractor, commission bespoke furniture and source unique works of art, alongside project co-ordinating and overseeing the refurbishment process itself, providing both the creative and practical assistance to ensure clients feel supported, inspired and fully assisted at every step of the process.
Above all we strives to create original homes that reflect and resonate with the individuals and families who inhabit them with an established team of trusted architects, surveyors, builders, decorators and artisans bringing each client’s vision to life with diligence and thoughtfulness.

CREATIVE DIRECTOR
Anouska's style is elegant and thoughtful, with a keen understanding of design history and a love of art underpinning her work resulting in a studied and reflective approach, that is primarily led by a client's individual style and personality, and bolstered by a deep appreciation of exquisite craftsmanship and passion for architecture. The result being layered and interesting spaces that feel at once inviting.
Clients enjoy a genuinely consultative relationship with Anouska, who believes in establishing both trust and understanding in order to interpret and create personal and intimate spaces that will stand the test of time. In her eyes each room is unique, there are no rules, no formulae, no blue print, which means that from conception through to completion there is complete focus on creating homes that are singular and at one with their surroundings.

INFLUENCE
Anouska has Eurasian heritage and fondly recalls the mix of Eastern and Western styles in her family home. Modernist, Mid-century and Art Deco pieces sat alongside exotic curiosities from farther afield, with her Singaporean grandmother, a couture seamstress, giving Anouska a long-lasting interest in textiles.
Inquisitive by nature and inspired by the world around her, whether that’s a vibrant bazar in Marrakech, a graffiti emblazoned alley in East London, or the colours and textures of Dartmoor’s untamed moorland. Anouska’s eye for detail and innate curiosity enable her to source precious and thoughtful pieces for her clients from all over the world.
