Spring · MMXXVI
Two commissions remaining for autumn 2026

Interiors
for considered
houses.

We compose houses room by room — from first conversation to the day the doors are closed for the photographer. A studio of seven, in London & Antwerp, since MMXIII.

01 — Services

Six disciplines,
held under one roof.

From first sketch to the final cushion, every part of the house is composed by us — drawing, sourcing, art, fabric, install, direction.

01

Residential

Whole houses and single rooms. Georgian terraces, contemporary apartments, country places. Drawn at 1:50, lived at 1:1.

02

Commercial

Offices, studios, and private members' clubs. We design the room and the rituals that fill it. Long-day spaces, quietly composed.

03

Hospitality

Hotels, restaurants, second homes that earn their keep. Composed for the paying guest, but quietly, as if for one's own house.

04

Art Curation

A separate discipline within the studio. Antique drawings, modernist photographs, and a network of dealers in Paris, Antwerp, and Mayfair.

05

Soft Furnishings

Curtains, cushions, upholstery, and bed linens. Made in our Antwerp atelier in linens and wools we have specified for fifteen years.

06

Project Direction

Site coordination from first survey through final styling. We attend the site weekly. The principal carries one phone, for one client.

02 — The Idea

Why a considered
house is
a quieter life.

Three benefits we have observed across one hundred and twenty completed houses. Scroll, and we'll show you each in turn.

01 / 03
Cohesion
Benefit № 01
01.

Cohesion.

A house that speaks one language. From the entry mat to the linen press, every surface, fabric, and fixture is considered against every other.

Time.

Years of selection compressed into months. The right fabric, the right antique, the right lamp — found once, by people who do it daily.
