About
Designing spaces, transforming lives
She Designs is an interior and architectural design studio in Cardiff, working across the UK.
Our story
Our journey began with a shared understanding of how our surroundings can profoundly influence our emotions and wellbeing.
Growing up, we experienced both the comfort of nurturing spaces and the starkness of uninspired environments, which sparked our passion for creating designs that uplift and heal.
We use principles like natural light, biophilic design and colour psychology to create uplifting spaces that reflect your story, and we are committed to sustainable design, so our projects have a positive impact on the community and the planet.
Whether refreshing a single room or undertaking a full redesign, we focus on building trusting relationships with our clients. Together, we can create spaces that not only look beautiful but also uplift your spirit and enhance your daily life.

“Our mission is to create spaces that not only captivate the eyes but also nurture the spirit.”
- 01
Light
Natural light first, placed where people actually sit, work and rest.
- 02
Nature
Biophilic design: planting, natural materials and views out, for calmer rooms.
- 03
Colour
Colour psychology chosen for the people in the room, not for the photograph.
- 04
Function
Functional planning: circulation, storage and the way a day really runs.
How we work
With care teams, contractors and families
Our approach is collaborative and considered. We work alongside contractors, stakeholders and care teams so every environment is purposeful: listening first to the people who will live or work in the space, then plans, visuals and a programme everyone can see.
Hope Design Solutions
Where our work with furniture began
With Oasis Cardiff, a charity supporting refugees and asylum seekers, we started Refurnish Hope: breathing new life into discarded furniture and sharing restoration skills with people starting again. It grew into Hope Design Solutions, the community interest company we also run.
