Start with AtelierFictional interior-design studio
Interiors designed around everyday life.
Aster House plans rooms, materials and furnishings as one connected project.
Services
Planning, design and finishing.
Each project starts with how the rooms will be used, then moves into layout, materials and furnishings.
Space planning
Plan circulation, proportions, light and how the rooms connect.
Interior styling
Select furniture, objects and finishes that work with the overall plan.
How the home is used
Start with everyday routines.
Before choosing materials or furniture, Aster House maps how people move, gather, work and rest.
That plan guides the room layout, materials and final details.
Selected work
Three examples of layout, light and materials.
Residential design
Threshold and morning light
A deep limestone threshold frames warm plaster, dark timber and a courtyard olive tree in low morning light.
Spatial direction
The long room
An axial limestone room is organised by repeated plaster bays, a smoked-oak service core and a distant olive tree.
Interior styling
Sculptural stair
A curved plaster core, limestone stair and dark metal handrail turn circulation into a quiet architectural centrepiece.
