Madame Design - Interior Designer - London & Paris
Founded by Valérie Gnansia Arquier, Madame Design creates elegant and thoughtful interiors designed to reflect the personality and lifestyle of those who live in them.
Materials, proportions and colour combinations have always been central to my work, from fashion to interior design.
After ten years in London, I founded Madame Design in 2023 to create interiors tailored to each client and considered down to the smallest detail.
Today, I work across London and France.

Why I Love What I Do
I like getting to know how people live, what they’re drawn to and what they need from a space. Whether I’m working on a full renovation or making a few carefully chosen changes, I look for a balance between beauty and everyday practicality.
My Design Philosophy
I believe in an elegance that goes beyond trends. The most beautiful interiors are those where every element has a purpose.
Let’s create something beautiful together.
Services I Offer
Considering every aspect of a space to create interiors that are beautiful, functional and personal.
Design Consultancy
Expert advice and guidance for clients managing their own projects, from material selection to troubleshooting design challenges.
Interior Design
For those looking to rethink their interior without undertaking major renovation work. Moodboards provide guidance on colours, materials, furniture and layout to help you make the right choices.
Design development
For projects involving the transformation of a space, layout plans and 3D modelling make it possible to explore different options and visualise the result before work begins.
Project coordination
Planning, coordination and supervision of tradespeople and suppliers to ensure the finished result remains true to the original design.
My Process
1. Initial Consultation
We begin with an in-depth conversation about your lifestyle, aesthetic preferences, budget, and project timeline. This meeting, whether in person or via video call, helps me understand your vision and determine how I can best support you.
2. Concept Development
I create detailed moodboards, space plans, and material palettes that bring your vision to life. This collaborative phase ensures we're aligned before moving forward.
3. Design Specification
Every detail is documented: materials, finishes, furniture, lighting, and accessories. You'll receive a comprehensive specification with samples, sources, and costings.
4. Project Coordination
I manage relationships with all suppliers, craftsmen, and contractors, keeping your project on schedule and ensuring the highest quality standards.
5. Installation & Styling
The final stage brings everything together. I oversee installation and personally style your space with furniture, artwork, and accessories to complete the vision.
6. Aftercare
My commitment doesn't end at handover. I'm available for ongoing support, adjustments, and advice as you settle into your beautifully designed space.
Let's Create Something Beautiful Together
Whether you're planning a complete renovation, refreshing a single room, or simply need expert design guidance, I'd love to hear about your project.
