Who we are

Urban Atelier is a boutique Interior Design studio known for creating layered, timeless spaces that are both liveable and exciting for their owners. Founded in 2004, the studio takes on only a limited number of projects each year, allowing Henri to be personally involved in every aspect of the design process.

With a focus on depth, texture and emotional resonance, the studio blends new and vintage elements to create spaces that evolve over time, never feeling staged. Collaborating with architects, landscape designers, and skilled craftspeople, Henri ensures every detail aligns with the broader creative vision. The result is a home that is distinctive, lived-in and deeply personal, showcasing the very best of its owner’s collection and character.

Our Values
Discretion
Privacy is paramount. We work with the utmost confidentiality, especially for high-profile and private clients who value discretion above all else.
Trust
Our clients feel confident and cared for throughout every stage of the design process. Trust is just as important within our team – we empower each other to take initiative and lead with integrity.
Personalisation
Every space should tell a story – yours. We take time to understand what inspires our clients, crafting interiors that feel authentic, timeless, and deeply personal.
Collaboration
We work as one. Our studio is built on mutual support, where creativity is shared and every voice is valued.
Flexibility
As a boutique studio, we’re agile by nature. Every team member brings a versatile mindset, ready to adapt and contribute wherever needed.
Our Team

Our west Nairobi studio is home to a small but highly focused team. The team is a dedicated group of design and studio professionals who collaborate closely to ensure projects are finished on time and on budget.

Operating on this small scale allows us to maintain close connections with every client and provide an individual, highly personalised service. The studio is always working on a number of projects at any one time, so organisation, efficiency and dedication are second nature to us.
