About us.
Leif is a design and build studio that treats every home like a long-term relationship.
Anyone can design a structure.
We design around how people live and work.
Our approach is simple at its core and layered in its craft.
We listen, understand how you move through your day, what comforts you, what inspires you, and what a “dream home” genuinely means to you.
From there, we deliver every project end-to-end, from the first sketch to the final styled detail.
Every project is guided by the Leif Way: thoughtful planning, honest materials, meticulous detailing and a deep respect for function and beauty. The result is a home that feels effortless, warm and unmistakably yours.
WHY CHOOSE us.
At Leif, design and execution sit under one roof. That means fewer gaps, clearer decisions, and spaces that look exactly like they were meant to when you first saw them on paper. From concept design and detailed planning to construction, finishes, and final handover, every step is intentional.
We’re obsessive about details because that’s where good spaces are made. Proportions, circulation, light, materials, and how one room transitions into the next. Our renders aren’t just visuals. They’re working documents built to translate cleanly into reality.
What this really means is less guesswork for you. Clear timelines. Honest conversations. And spaces that feel calm, functional, and considered long after the project is complete.
Delivering Excellence in designs.
Design.
Concept development, space planning, and interior architecture guided by clarity and purpose. We shape layouts that breathe, select materials that age gracefully, and create atmospheres that feel grounded & considered.
Build.
A construction process led with discipline, accountability, and transparency. We take full responsibility for engineering, timelines, and on-site execution — ensuring the built outcome reflects the design intent with precision.
Furnish & Style.
Custom furniture, curated pieces, lighting, soft furnishings, and final styling.
This is where the space comes alive — layered, warm, and thoughtfully composed.
Turnkey Delivery.
From initial idea to a fully completed space, without the overwhelm.
One team, one coordinated process, and one clear vision brought to life.

The Haven
Olive Grove
A contemporary private villa designed to feel calm, composed, and quietly luxurious.
The home is shaped around light and clear circulation, with a strong emphasis on wall cladding, layered finishes, and controlled detailing to create a refined, hotel-like atmosphere. Despite its elegance, the layout is planned as a highly functional family home — peaceful, tranquil, and easy to live in.
A six-bedroom family home re-planned extensively to create openness, flow, and connection between spaces.
Significant structural work was undertaken to open up the ground floor, allowing the cinema room, kitchen, living, and dining areas to function as a cohesive whole. The master suite was further extended to incorporate a walk-in wardrobe and additional storage, while every space throughout the home was personalised to reflect the family’s lifestyle and needs.
Full renovation focused on softening structure through proportion, form, and material selection.
Curved walls and elegant panelling introduce a sense of movement and refinement, balanced by a neutral, restrained colour palette. On the ground floor, walls were removed to create a continuous living, dining, and kitchen space, improving flow and daylight while maintaining a calm, cohesive interior language.

![Sleek, functional, and zero visual noise. ✨
We designed the Casa 105 kitchen as a masterclass in hidden utility. To keep the aesthetic clean, we concealed a premium double-door fridge behind vertical grain cladding and integrated seamless appliances directly into the architecture.
The layout is built for flow: double doors allow you to toggle between a private prep space and a social hub, with a direct path to the covered BBQ area. High-performance design, hidden in plain sight.
