Our Story
-
Based in East Yorkshire, Olivia (Liv) is an interior designer whose work is shaped by a decade spent in London and a career rooted in luxury hospitality. Since launching her studio in 2019, she has become known for her intuitive, story-driven approach, combining refined aesthetics with a deep sense of comfort and soul.
A member of the British Institute of Interior Design and an alumna of both KLC School of Design and the University of the Arts London, Liv blends formal training with a thoughtful, individual approach to creating homes that feel as good as they look.
Before moving into interior design, Liv spent several years working in PR and marketing for global luxury hospitality brands, including Four Seasons Hotels & Resorts, the British Virgin Islands, and the Qatar Tourism Authority.
From curating unforgettable guest experiences to designing atmospheric dinners and high-profile events, these formative years sharpened her instinct for spatial storytelling. They also deepened her understanding of what makes a space truly special. Liv developed an eye for detail, atmosphere, and the small design moments that leave lasting impressions, along with a natural ability to balance function and beauty. This experience now informs her residential work, where practicality and feeling go hand in hand.Liv’s journey into interiors began organically, helping friends and family reimagine their homes, and grew into a sought-after boutique design studio serving both homeowners and renters. She brings a globally inspired, hospitality-informed sensibility to every project.
A defining feature of the studio is its in-house upholstery and soft furnishings service, Stitch Up, Look Sharp! Liv has a particular affinity for traditional techniques and well-loved pieces, often working with heirlooms or vintage finds in need of thoughtful restoration, believing these objects bring authenticity and emotional weight to a home. The studio also curates a growing selection of one-off reworked items through the Stitch Up, Look Sharp Collection, available both directly and via Vinterior.
“A beautiful home isn’t just seen, it’s felt. Every space should reflect the person living in it — layered, lived-in and completely individual. There’s a quiet kind of beauty in the well-loved: pieces with history, homes with soul. That’s where the real design magic lies. Good design doesn’t shout. It welcomes you, supports you and quietly improves the way you live.”
Known for her signature black attire, glasses, love of coffee and sparkling water, Liv runs the studio under the watchful eye of her toy poodle, Beetle. She intentionally takes on a limited number of projects at a time, ensuring she can work closely with each client, personally guiding the process and drawing on her experience to bring ideas to life with care and clarity. She collaborates with a trusted network of skilled craftspeople, trades and suppliers, building bespoke project teams tailored to each client and brief.
