A More Personal Service
When you appoint Khaya Studio, you aren’t handed over to a team. You work with me. From our very first conversation through to the final styling touches, I remain your designer, your point of contact, and your guide throughout the entire process.


Interiors Are Like Fashion
Your wardrobe might need a freshen up after 20 years and so might your interiors. Don't follow trends if you want longevity, keep it classic. But also, don't play it too safe, if you love something, go for it!


Before & After: Coach House Project
There’s something undeniably satisfying about a good before and after. The transformation, the detail, the atmosphere shift - it’s where thoughtful design truly reveals its impact.

A sensitive interior design case study of a historic Coach House in Bristol. Discover Khaya Studio’s heritage-led approach to period property renovation and timeless interior design.


Before & After: Bramble Cottage
There’s something undeniably satisfying about a good before and after. The transformation, the detail, the atmosphere shift - it’s where thoughtful design truly reveals its impact.


Before & After: Roath Park Project
There is something incredibly special about working with Victorian homes. Their proportions, craftsmanship and architectural detailing offer so much character - but they can also present design challenges that require sensitivity and experience.


How to Select Fabrics for Your Home
Choosing fabrics is one of the most enjoyable - and often most defining - stages of any interior design project. Fabrics bring personality, softness, and soul to a space, tying together colour, texture, and comfort in a way that hard finishes never can.


Creating a Family Home... I’m a Mom, I Get It.
As a mom myself, I completely understand the rhythm of family living - the school runs, the endless trail of toys, the muddy wellies by the door, and the quiet moments you try to carve out for yourself amidst the chaos. A family home needs to be both practical and nurturing; a place that supports your day-to-day life while still feeling calm, considered, and beautifully designed.


Your Home Is Likely Your Biggest Investment
For most of us, our home is our single greatest investment - financially, emotionally, and personally. It’s where our stories unfold, where our families grow, and where we spend most of our lives.


How to Design an Elegant Bathroom
A beautifully designed bathroom has the power to transform everyday rituals into quiet moments of calm. It’s one of the most intimate spaces in the home - a retreat where we begin and end our days - and when designed thoughtfully, it can feel both luxurious and deeply restorative.


Staging Can Help Increase the Market Sale Price by Up to 20%
When it comes to selling a property, first impressions are everything. In a competitive housing market, how a home looks, feels, and photographs can make all the difference - not just to how quickly it sells, but to how much it sells for.


What Is Circular Design?
In a world where trends move quickly and resources are finite, circular design offers a refreshing and responsible alternative - one that celebrates longevity, craftsmanship, and conscious choices.


The Effect of Our Homes on Our Mood
Our homes are far more than just the places we live - they are an extension of who we are. The spaces we inhabit have a profound influence on how we feel, how we think, and even how we connect with others.


Goodbye Feature Wall, Hello Colour Drenching!
Once upon a time, the feature wall was the go-to design move - a single pop of colour or pattern to add drama and personality to a space. But in recent years, a softer, more immersive trend has taken centre stage: colour drenching.

Why Do I Describe My Interior Design Style as Timeless?
When people ask me to define my interior design style, I often say: timeless. But what does that really mean?


The Importance of Client Reviews
When it comes to choosing an interior designer, it’s natural to want reassurance that you’re making the right decision. That’s why client reviews are so valuable - they give an honest insight into what it’s really like to work with me, from the design process right through to the finished home.


My Range of Interior Design Services
Every home is unique, and so is every client. That’s why I offer a flexible range of interior design services, tailored to your needs - whether you’re looking for guidance on a single room or a full home transformation. Working across Bristol, Bath, and Somerset, I specialise in period and heritage properties, helping clients create homes that are beautiful, functional, and deeply personal.


The Importance of considering the Whole House in Interior Design
When we think about interior design, it’s easy to picture one room at a time - the dream kitchen, a cosy living space, or a restful bedroom retreat. But the truth is, the most successful homes are designed as a whole, not as a collection of separate parts.


Case Study: Roath Park Project
The Roath Park Project was a wonderful opportunity to work with a distinguished period property that had recently been extended. The brief was enhancing its functionality for modern life while infusing each space with warmth, character, and individuality.
