Our Approach
Each project begins with understanding how you live — not just how you want your home to look.
We take the time to:
Understand your routines, priorities, and long-term vision
Analyse the architectural potential of your space
Design with both beauty and function in equal measure
From concept through to completion, we guide every stage with clarity, precision, and care.
As a boutique studio, we remain closely involved throughout — ensuring every detail is considered, every finish is intentional, and the final outcome feels cohesive and effortless.
About Vicuna Design
Vicuna Design is a boutique interior design studio founded by Ayla Aksoy, specialising in timeless residential interiors across London and Essex.
We work closely with a select number of clients each year, offering a highly personal, considered approach to every project. Our focus is not simply to design beautiful spaces — but to create homes that feel refined, enduring, and deeply connected to the people who live in them.
Our Philosophy
We believe true luxury is not defined by trends, but by longevity.
Our work is rooted in the balance between modern clarity and classic detail — creating interiors that feel both current and enduring. Spaces that won’t date in five years, but instead evolve gracefully over time.
Every decision we make is intentional:
Proportion over excess
Materiality over decoration
Detail over noise
The result is a calm, elevated aesthetic — what we define as quiet, timeless luxury.
A Personal Studio
Vicuna Design is led personally by Ayla, bringing a hands-on approach to every project.
With a background in both interior design and bespoke furniture, we bring a deeper level of design thinking — considering not just the space, but how every element within it is crafted, proportioned, and experienced.
We collaborate with trusted craftsmen, suppliers, and makers to deliver spaces that feel bespoke, not assembled.
