About Pia Pelkonen

PIA PELKONEN - BA (hons) | BIID RegID | SBID RegID

Pia Design is an interior design studio, led by Pia Pelkonen, on a mission to inspire our clients on a more sustainable way to refurbish, reimagine and create their dream home.

Following a degree in Interior Architecture, Pia gained experience across a variety of projects as a designer and project manager at leading design studios in London before establishing Pia Design, designing projects across the UK and internationally.

We take our inspiration from the building itself, our client’s personality and their lifestyle to create truly lasting, beautiful homes.

We don’t have a ‘house style’.

It’s not about us, it’s about you.

Inspired by nature

We interpret the style preferences of each client and develop something tailored to them. Despite our projects often taking their own, unique direction as a result, there is nonetheless common thread that underlies each one, apparent in the use of natural materials - wood, stone, cork, metal etc can be used to add texture, but also colour to a scheme before simply specifying paint.

A love of nature is at the heart of our designs and our philosophy is that the best form of sustainability is a carefully considered scheme and the use of quality materials - natural materials have a timeless quality about them that surpasses trends whilst also standing the test of time: some materials even grow more beautiful with age.
