About Us

Design house and interiors brand Oriana B is the discerning choice for considered, aspirational and enduring interiors. It was founded on a serendipitous partnership and an unwavering promise: to offer distinctive designs for independent minds.

Launched in 2019 by Dublin-based Londoner Katharine Deas who pivoted from a corporate career to pursue her love of design, Oriana B began with Katharine selling unique furniture online. Katharine’s discerning taste caught the attention of Dublin interior designer Alannah Monks, and they quickly bonded over their shared appreciation for functional furniture that elevates the ordinary. A creative partnership was instantly forged and Alannah joined the Oriana B team as Creative Director in 2020.

Now leading an all-female team in Fairview, Dublin 3, their mission is to create and supply thoughtfully designed furniture and homewares that give independent thinkers the power to create distinctive homes. Their trademark polished eclecticism aesthetic pioneers homes that are distinctive yet discerning, curated but never contrived. By leaning into 20th-century inspired design and European traditionalism, Katharine and Alannah believe in homes that are cosy to occupy, beautiful to look at and easy to create.

This philosophy guides all that Oriana B has to offer today; from its celebrated interiors collection to its interior design studio and first-ever in-house designed collection unveiled in 2024, which was conceptualised in Dublin and handmade in India following a year-long pursuit.

Key to Oriana B’s offering is an accessible price point without compromising on design value, because everyone should have the chance to bring polished eclecticism alive in their homes. Katharine and Alannah’s trailblazing vision, trusted expertise and life-long passion for enduring interiors make Oriana B the distinctive design destination for discerning homes.

"We offer a full service across our design studio, from single room redesigns to full scale new builds and renovations in both residential and commercial properties. We have completed a number of turnkey solutions for clients living overseas or relocating to Ireland, such as our New Character Project. Part of a brand new development, this detached property was a true exploration of creativity centring on practical family life and functionality. The owners contacted Oriana B from overseas looking for a turnkey finish and to make this house a characterful and cosy home for their young family. We were tasked with taking this property from white walls, concrete floors and builder grade finishes to a home filled with texture, pattern, colour and whimsy in a mere 12 weeks."
