We go beyond traditional design by offering a true "Design & Build" experience.

From navigating complex planning permissions and legalisations to project management, executing precise interior finishes, and sourcing bespoke furniture, we handle every detail in-house. Whether it’s a complex structural reconstruction or a refined interior transformation, we deliver spaces of exceptional quality, saving our clients time, stress, and financial surprises.
About the Architect
Aysun Katrandzhieva, M.Arch.
As a certified architect with 10 years of international experience spanning London, Germany, and Bulgaria, I bring a holistic and highly technical approach to every project. My architectural foundation was built in the UK, where I earned my Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) accredited degree, before completing my Master of Architecture and attaining full professional licensing with the Chamber of Architects in Bulgaria (CAB). This academic background is combined with invaluable insider expertise from my time in municipal urban planning.
My philosophy is simple: exceptional design must be perfectly executable. By leading both the creative process and our dedicated construction team, I ensure that every architectural detail, custom furniture piece, and legal requirement is meticulously coordinated from day one. This guarantees a seamless journey and a space that is as structurally sound as it is beautiful.
