About us

We are a family run interior architecture and design studio. Sisters Stacey and Lauren lead the helm alongside a small but mighty design team at our Hertfordshire based studio.

Creating homes with soul that speak to you and your lifestyle

Our ethos

At Studio28 we believe great design is much more than simply how a space appears visually. A well balanced home is considered aesthetically but also for it’s day to day functionality and the emotions it evokes. Interiors impact our wellbeing on a subconscious level affecting how we feel physically and emotionally. This powerful aspect of design is often overlooked. Sight, touch, smell and sound all play a key role in our approach to deliver balanced, holistic interiors. We breathe new life into homes, creating a soul that speaks directly to you and your lifestyle. We design homes that feel easy, aspirational and most importantly, undeniably personal to you.

Our values

As a small family run studio, values are extremely important to us and part of our daily practice. We understand the passion and devotion that goes into building and maintaining an independent business. In our experience these companies often deliver the best service. We work with like minded businesses and enjoy supporting local, independent companies where possible. Our carefully chosen trades and suppliers have values that align with our own. We understand that strong customer service is key to the successful implementation of our services. Our friendly, flexible approach reassures clients that their emotional and financial investment is given the attention it deserves.

Our history

After studying Interior Architecture, Design and Practice at Middlesex University, Stacey graduated with first class honours and went on to work for renowned London design studios. In 2014 Stacey set up Studio28 following her passion to make aspirational interior design approachable to the Home Counties. With over seventeen years experience, you can rest assured your project is in capable hands. In 2019 Lauren joined the studio, with the combination of Stacey’s design knowledge and Lauren’s client management expertise, the sisters set out to provide the perfect balance of creativity, technical knowledge, professionalism and service.

We are proud to be a multi award-winning business for both the homes we design and the customer service we deliver to our clients. We place equal importance on customer service which is key to our business values.

“Studio28 understood very clearly our vision where we didn’t want to compromise luxury but yet needed to be practical with two children under four! They accurately
hit the brief and gone beyond expectations. We couldn’t recommend Studio28 enough and can’t wait to work
with them again on future projects.”
