welcome
San Stae is a Leamington Spa-based interior design and art studio led by designer, curator and artist Aly Grimes.
We create thoughtful, beautifully resolved interiors across both residential and commercial sectors, working from renovation through to final styling within both period and contemporary properties.
Our work spans private homes, residential developments, and workplace, leisure, hospitality and cultural projects across the UK.
Art forms a key part of our practice and alongside our design work, we commission, source and make artworks, curate exhibitions and host creative workshops as San Stae Art Class.
If you like what you see feel free to get in touch. We’d love to hear from you.
how we work
We’re a collaborative and nimble studio - curious, practical and just as comfortable on site as we are with a sketchbook.
We don’t define ourselves by a signature style, but by a considered approach. People, place, history and atmosphere are always our starting point, with each project shaped by client and context resulting in spaces that feel refined, timeless and unique.
We believe the design process should be enjoyable, inspiring and stress-free. Always mindful of budgets, we work within established parameters while aiming to create lasting impact and value.
We work closely with a trusted network of architects, builders and makers, and our grounding in both design and art gives us a distinctive creative edge.
We stand for authenticity, integrity and originality. Always.
