Design Fyi Ltd

Design FYI is a commercial interior design and build practice with design at its core, not as a service bolted on at the start, but as the lens through which every decision is made. We work with businesses across the UK to create commercial environments that feel calm, considered, and genuinely theirs. Our background is in interior design first, construction second, and that order matters. It means the creative thinking and the technical delivery are never in tension; they're part of the same conversation, led by the same team, from day one.

Design FYI grew from a long tradition of close collaboration between designers, makers, and clients who wanted something more considered than the market usually offers. That tradition shapes how we work today. With care, with craft, and with a genuine commitment to the result. We work across the full spectrum of commercial environments: offices, receptions, hospitality spaces, collaborative and breakout areas.

Each project begins with listening to how a business operates, what its people need, and what kind of environment would genuinely serve both. From there, we develop spaces that are functional without being utilitarian, and beautiful without being impractical. Our approach favours natural materials, soft architectural gestures, and palettes that age well. We're not chasing trends.

We're building spaces that feel right today and continue to feel right in ten years, spaces that reflect the identity of the businesses inside them, not the moment they were built. Gareth, the founder, is a designer first, with over 20 years of experience across interior design and construction.
