At INKSPACE we believe that there should be a seamless link between Architecture and Interior Design.
We provide a holistic design service from the outset of the creative process, offering our clients a specialised service, where the external and internal spaces are treated with equal importance.
Our team promises to provide your project with considered advice, along with fresh and innovative ideas.
We work regularly with a range of specialist trades and craftsman and together we achieve bespoke and stunning results.
INKSPACE originally started as an architectural studio, however, we have evolved over the years so that we now offer a full interior design service as well. This has been driven by our clients’ need for that extra bit of guidance and flourish to finish their projects off to the highest standard, and we are delighted to have branched out to this type of work.
We believe that the best projects are ones that consider those finer details early in the design process, whether that is a clever bit of storage, a purpose-built dressing room with bespoke wardrobes or an intelligent lighting design, that makes the most of the architectural details.
We work with fabulous designers and craftsmen to offer our projects automated blinds, beautiful window treatments and soft furnishings. We also work with several ‘tried and tested’ kitchen and bathroom suppliers and can provide everything you need to make your home truly special.
As with the architectural design, our clients’ visions and aspirations for their project are the most important aspect. We have worked on a variety of schemes from contemporary to traditional for both individual clients and developers. For each project, we provide our clients with imaginative designs, through the use of sketches, material samples and 3D visualisations all the way from concept through to completion.
Every project is different and therefore, the best way we can support you is by having an initial conversation. Please don’t hesitate to get in touch using the form below and we’ll call you back as soon as we can.
