About the studio
A Sydney studio for the quietly considered home.
Studio Christeen is a boutique interior design practice based in Sydney, NSW, creating refined, liveable homes with a warm luxury aesthetic. Every project is led personally by founder Christeen Kalyana.
Christeen Kalyana — Founder & Principal Designer
Designing homes that feel inevitable.
Christeen began her practice with a simple belief: that the best homes are the ones that feel like they could only ever have been this way — quietly resolved, warm to return to, and shaped around the rituals of everyday life.
Trained across architecture and interior design, she brings an architectural discipline to every project — pairing restraint with rich materials and layered light to create rooms that age beautifully.
Studio Christeen works on a small number of projects each year so every home receives Christeen's full attention from concept through to the final styled vignette.
Our philosophy
Three quiet pillars
Warmth
Soft palettes, natural light and tactile materials that invite you in.
Restraint
Edited rooms with quiet detail — nothing accidental, nothing excess.
Craft
Considered joinery, finishes and styling — built to last and patina well.
