About Us

Oliver Burns Studio is an award-winning luxury architectural interior design studio. A global force in design, where beauty and function combine to deliver Thoughtful Luxury. The team work on the world’s finest interiors across residential, marine, aviation and hospitality, from listed heritage buildings through to lakeside villas and beyond.

Their ethos of ‘Thoughtful Luxury’ is evident at every stage of the design process, bought to life by the way they curate, collaborate and narrate, creating designs that go beyond the aesthetic. Collaborating with world-renowned artisans and craftsmen, the studio delivers elegant, quietly luxurious spaces that are felt, rather than formulaic.

With such dedication and attention to detail, each project is given the exceptional level of service that it deserves, resulting in the studio becoming a trusted advisor for the world’s most affluent families, ultra-prime developers, luxury brands, and commercial clients.

"House of Walpole is the Home of British Luxury Craftsmanship, bringing together Britain’s best luxury brands within one ultra-luxurious space at No.1 Palace Street. The collaboration between Northacre Properties and Walpole was created to showcase and highlight British luxury within a bespoke one-off residence.

Oliver Burns was enlisted by Walpole and Northacre Properties to design the space, working with some of the most celebrated British Luxury designers to deliver our concept of 'a love letter to the Palace Gardens'. This exquisite apartment is a contemporary response that honours the heritage of this enchanting garden in all its splendour, giving the internal space as much gravitas as the external architecture.

We have taken a thoughtful, multi-sensory approach to the brief that mixes both timeless British institutions and the new guard in a thoroughly modern way. This design goes beyond the aesthetic to reflect ‘Thoughtful Luxury’ in practice."
