Residential Interior Design in London for Houses and Apartments
Oraanj creates thoughtful, beautifully finished residential interiors for homeowners, property owners and private clients across London.
We design around the way you live — how you use each room, what you need to store, how you entertain and how you want your home to feel.
From space planning and lighting to bespoke joinery, furniture and finishes, our team can design a single room or develop a complete interior across your property. And for clients who want end-to-end execution, our complete Design & Build and Turnkey interior design services continue seamlessly from concept to completed home.
Homes Designed Around the Way You Live
A home shouldn’t simply look impressive in photographs. It needs to work when you’re actually living in it.
We start by understanding you, the property and what isn’t currently working. Perhaps the living room never feels quite right. The kitchen and dining area don’t connect properly. You need more storage. Your lighting isn’t working for different times of day. Or you’ve bought a property and simply don’t know where to begin.
Space & Circulation
Evaluating natural walkways, intuitive transitions, and architectural balance between open social zones and quiet retreats.
Tailored Everyday Storage
Bespoke joinery engineered around your exact wardrobes, media systems, and family items rather than generic cabinetry.
Dynamic Layered Lighting
Ambient, task, and architectural accent lighting designed to shift effortlessly from morning brightness to evening calm.
From curated colour palettes to luxury textiles and artwork, we provide tailored residential interior design and build for distinguished homes.
Our residential practice spans prime and suburban London boroughs, including private home renovations across Richmond upon Thames, Kingston upon Thames, Hayes, and regional estates in Nottingham.
What Type of Home Are You Designing?
Different properties demand different architectural approaches, acoustic considerations, and storage solutions.
Complete Homes & Family Residences
Coordinated design across the entire property, balancing shared family zones with private retreats and hard-wearing materials.
London Apartments & Penthouses
Intelligent space planning, acoustic control, building-management compliance, and bespoke joinery that maximises every square metre.
Period Properties & Townhouses
Restoring classical cornices, fireplaces, and timber flooring while seamlessly integrating modern kitchens, bathrooms, and lighting.
Second Homes & Pied-à-Terre
Complete turnkey interiors for UK-based or international owners requiring lock-and-leave convenience and luxury styling.
Our private residential portfolio extends across Bromley, Hornchurch, Ruislip, Canary Wharf, Greenwich, Ilford, Northwood, Shoreditch, Stanmore, Totteridge, and Vauxhall.
Canary Wharf Penthouse Interior Design
Contemporary Apartment Living with Warmth and Character
This Canary Wharf penthouse interior design brings a warmer, tactile material palette to a contemporary Docklands riverside setting. Terracotta tones, rich walnut timber and brushed brass provide contrast to the apartment’s extensive floor-to-ceiling glazing.
Site Challenge & Response
Defining Separate Areas Within an Open-Plan Layout
An expansive open-plan penthouse requires clear functional zoning while preserving uninterrupted river views. We deployed low-profile furniture groupings, fluted timber screens and textural area rugs to anchor dedicated living and dining rooms.
Site Challenge & Response
Bringing Warmth to a Glazed Contemporary Interior
Expansive floor-to-ceiling glass can make urban apartments feel stark. We layered warm terracotta lime-wash finishes, walnut acoustic slatted panels and tactile velvet upholstery to create a welcoming residential sanctuary.

What Our Residential Interior Design Service Includes
Your service is tailored to the property and level of design support required.
We also serve international clients through our specialized international interior design studio.
Whole-Home Interior Design
One Home, Rather Than a Collection of Separate Rooms
Designing a complete property requires a different approach from decorating individual rooms in isolation.
Flooring moves from one area into another. Lighting needs to work across the property. Joinery, doors and architectural details repeat. Colours need to connect without every room looking identical.
We develop the home as one overall design while considering how each individual room needs to function. This is particularly valuable when renovating a newly purchased property or making significant changes across an existing family home.
We deliver whole-house architectural transformations as an established house renovation company London homeowners rely on.
Recent private commissions include our Ruislip luxury design and build residence, Wimbledon residence interior design, and Barbican residence interior design case studies.

Designing London Homes
Understanding the Property Matters
London homes present distinct architectural opportunities and structural constraints:
Period Houses & Townhouses
Victorian, Georgian and Edwardian properties have generous proportions and period cornicing, but often require modernised flow, expanded kitchens, and improved natural light.
Leasehold Apartments & Penthouses
Navigating licences to alter, strict acoustic ratings, service ducting, and building-management delivery logistics without compromising design ambition.
Family Residences
Designing robust, elegant homes that balance shared family living and entertaining with dedicated home working and children’s study zones.

How Much Does Residential Interior Design Cost in London?
Interior design fees depend on property size, the number of rooms, and the level of design detail required.
A single-room design concept naturally requires a different level of work from a complete whole-home interior involving technical drawings, bespoke joinery, procurement, and renovation supervision.
Oraanj offers transparent fixed-fee room packages as well as tailored whole-home scopes. Once we understand your property and timeline, we provide an itemised proposal with zero hidden surprises.
We connect internal living zones with private courtyards and terraces through architectural garden and landscape design.
