THE STUDIO
Based in the heart of Shropshire, IO Design Studio is an independent British Interior Design Studio creating residential, hospitality and commercial interiors across the UK.
We believe the best spaces don't begin with trends - they begin with people. Every project starts by understanding your story, your aspirations and the way you want to live or work, creating interiors that feel authentic, purposeful and uniquely yours.
Our approach is creative, collaborative and grounded. We're here to inspire ideas, simplify decisions and give you the confidence to create a space that not only looks beautiful, but works beautifully too. Whether you're transforming a family home or growing your business, we're passionate about creating spaces that people genuinely enjoy spending time in - spaces with story, spaces with purpose.

Not sure what you need? Many of our clients have never worked with an interior designer before. We'll help you choose the right level of support, explain every step of the process and tailor our services to suit your project and budget.
OUR PROCESS
Every project starts with a conversation. We take the time to understand how your space needs to work, what inspires you and what success looks like for your project. Whether you arrive with a clear vision or simply know how you want the space to feel, we'll help shape your ideas into a cohesive design that's built around you.
From concept design and space planning to detailed 3D visualisations and technical drawings, we guide you through each stage with confidence and clarity. Seeing your project brought to life before work begins allows you to explore ideas, refine every detail and make informed decisions before investing in materials or construction.
Our role is to make the process feel clear, considered and manageable. We handle the details, solve problems before they become obstacles and keep your project moving forward, so you can focus on the exciting moments rather than the stressful ones.
OUR TRUSTED NETWORK
Great design deserves great craftsmanship. That's why we've developed a trusted network of experienced builders, joiners, electricians, decorators and specialist trades who we've worked alongside on projects throughout the UK.
As part of our project coordination service, we can help assemble the right team for your project, obtain quotations, coordinate communication and attend site meetings, acting as a consistent point of contact throughout.
By managing the moving parts behind the scenes, we help keep your project organised, protect the original design intent and free you to enjoy the transformation rather than the day-to-day logistics.
