Helena Clunies-Ross

Featured in Architectural Digest and specialising in high-end residential, hospitality, and commercial design, the studio is renowned for creating luxurious and layered spaces that seamlessly balance drama and serenity.

With a strong focus on enhancing well-being through the interplay of natural light and raw materials, Helena’s background in Fine Art and Art History is evident in her compositional approach to design; with carefully curated corners, framed views and vignettes.

Helena’s portfolio encompasses new builds, gut-renovations, restorations and remodels; with a signature style that considers every aspect, from the interior architecture and landscape design, down to bespoke furniture, curated antiques, and original art. Drawing on her experience as former Design Director of Anouska Hempel, Helena Clunies-Ross crafts rich and atmospheric spaces—with a meticulous attention to detail and exceptional craftsmanship—that are recognisably sleek and sophisticated.
