Surrey based Architecture & Interior Design Studio, founded in 2016

At Claire Totman Designs, we believe that exceptional design stems from a deep understanding of our clients' lifestyles and aspirations.

Our goal is to create spaces that are not only aesthetically pleasing but also functional and reflective of the individuals who inhabit them. We focus on maximising natural light, ensuring intuitive layouts, and selecting materials that enhance both the form and function of each space.

Every design begins with a considered concept, shaped by a deep understanding of our clients lifestyle, values, and the architecture of the space.

We take on projects that align with our design expertise and passion. Our approach focuses on enhancing the occupier's experience by maximising light, flow, and flexibility. We design spaces that feel classic, timeless and comfortable, considering how our clients live and move through the property. Attention to both internal and external materials is key to creating a cohesive and functional environment.

Committed to Excellence

Client-Centred Approach

We pride ourselves on building strong, collaborative relationships with our clients. By taking the time to understand our clients vision and requirements, we ensure that each project is tailored to meet specific needs. Our team is dedicated to guiding our clients through every stage of the design process, from initial concept to completion.​

Architectural Design

Our architectural designs are rooted in a deep understanding of space, proportion and natural light. Each project is a thoughtful response to the property, our client’s lifestyle and the character of the building itself.

From design focused extensions and major renovations, we pride ourselves in only taking on projects that would benefit from our design led expertise and projects we feel passionate about. Our objective is create spaces that enhance our clients lives.

Beautifully functional, effortlessly refined.

Interior Design

Our interior style balances timeless elegance with classic design. Each space is carefully curated to reflect the individual character of our clients home.

With an emphasis on natural materials, soft textures and a muted palette, we create interiors that feel calm, cohesive and effortlessly lived-in. Whether it's a single room or a whole home, every project is designed with thought, purpose and subtle detail.

“Claire was very hands on and she is incredible in terms of her passion, and her attention to detail. She won’t settle for anything that isn’t perfect, and she genuinely helped us create such a beautiful home inside and out, that I will be forever grateful for.”

- Mr & Mrs Z

“We just wanted to say a proper thank you for all your hard work on the house. We have ended up with a beautiful home that we will enjoy for many years to come”
