Established in 2022, Ottosam Designs has transformed London townhouses into beautiful, functional homes. Our projects range from compact redesigns to large-scale renovations, each approached with a commitment to delivering a bespoke, personalised experience for our clients.
We tailor our designs to each client’s unique needs, preferences and lifestyle, working hand-in-hand with them to develop a design narrative that feels personal and authentic. This collaborative ethos ensures every project reflects the individuality of the occupants while achieving timeless elegance and functionality.
Our design aesthetic marries the charm of period features with contemporary elements. We breathe new life into classic elements by infusing them with modern design principles, creating spaces that balance heritage and everyday living.
Practicality is at the core of our design philosophy. We aim to create homes that maximize flow, enhance usability, and enrich daily life. From selecting furniture layouts that complement the space to choosing finishes that are both desirable and durable, we consider every detail to ensure each design is as practical as it is beautiful.
"With a passion for thoughtful, curated design, we take pride in transforming properties into homes that reflect our timeless and considered style. We are passionate about acknowledging the property’s heritage and views, enhancing the flow throughout the property and maximising light, whilst reinstating architectural and period features within our designs. We have a strong focus on the smaller design details, be that within the bespoke joinery designs, unique finishes, or curated furniture and accessories, which all elevate and complete the overall finished result.
We seek not to follow trends. Whilst each project is unique, we have a coherent and considered studio style through layering the materials, textures and tones we truly love, and it is these elements we seek to successfully blend with the client’s own style and wishes."
"The clients had purchased a 5,000 sq/ft Victorian South West London home and were keen to inject character back into the property with the goal of creating a discerning and sophisticated family home.
We fully renovated the property and adapted the layout to introduce a new study, gym and media room; renovated the kitchen and front reception room, designed a new bespoke wine cellar and completely redesigned the children’s bedrooms providing fun and safe access to the upper mezzanine level. We worked with the client’s existing vintage rugs and antique furniture, and acknowledged their South African heritage throughout the design process.
We carefully sourced new statement lighting fixtures and fittings; reinstated cornicing and panelling; introduced natural stone such as marble; and designed and fitted bespoke joinery to make this home complete for the clients."
