SJS Interior Design

One of our favourite things to do on a full home design - hide something.

Not because it needs to be secret. Because there’s something quietly satisfying about a space that doesn’t give everything away at once. A wall that’s just a wall. Until it isn’t.

Behind this timber slat feature is a full storage room. The joinery handle is the only hint it’s there - and even that blends in.

This is the kind of detail that makes a home feel considered rather than just finished.

„Just make it feel like a hotel room.“

That was the brief. Simple enough - except a hotel room that actually feels special isn’t about the thread count or the marble vanity. It’s about every decision working together. The proportions. The lighting. The way you move through the space.

Here’s what we actually built.

Material selections can completely shape how a home feels.

When working with existing materials, the goal is never to perfectly match everything. It’s about finding finishes that complement, soften and elevate what’s already there.

For this space, we layered:
* Calacatta Verde marble
* Storey Floors “Almond Chevron” flooring
* Travertine stone in Occe

A balance of warmth, softness and texture that feels timeless while still adding depth and contrast to the home.

Renovating can feel exciting… until you’re 47 Pinterest tabs deep and questioning every decision 🙂

A good renovation starts long before demolition day. The earlier you think about layout, functionality, materials and how you actually want to live in the space, the smoother the process becomes.

We love a curve at SJS 🙏🏼

Soft curves have a way of completely changing how a space feels. They bring warmth, calm and flow while softening the harder architectural lines within a home.

This custom joinery moment was designed to feel both functional and sculptural, creating a softer and more considered atmosphere within the bedroom.

A moment for the perfect sofa.

This striped Thursday sofa from completely transformed the feel of this casual living space. Soft, sculptural and playful while still feeling timeless and refined.

Sometimes the right sofa is what brings an entire room together. And yes… we’re just as obsessed with the back detail as the front.
