Maoliosa’s aesthetic is defined by effortless luxury: a celebration of craftsmanship, tactile materials and sophisticated neutral palettes. Texture plays a central role, with leather, marble, brass, wood and stone layered to create elegant, timeless interiors with a subtle edge. Deeply influenced by her upbringing surrounded by artists and architects, her work is always rooted in context, culture and a strong sense of place.

With a background spanning interior and fashion design, complemented by formal training in project management at RIBA, Maoliosa combines creative intuition with technical rigour. She describes herself as an ‘interiors concierge’, providing a truly turnkey service that encompasses design, procurement, art curation and logistics.
Natural yet contemporary in expression, Maoliosa’s considered mix of furnishings and artworks both welcoming and composed, defined by subtle monochromatic contrasts, rounded forms and a restrained palette of natural tones. Invisible Collection’s Dolly chairs by Sara Benhamou in Tobacco fabric offer a characterful counterpoint with the creamy alpaca-wool curved sofa against a white marble coffee table.
Designed in collaboration with Irish furniture maker and artist Cillian Johnston, the feature shelving unit pairs the rich, deep tones of Birdseye maple with hand-lacquered white panels to create a striking feature wall – with a secret. At the touch of a remote, high-gloss panels slide smoothly across the curated display of sculptural ceramics, revealing a concealed TV – perfect for cosy evenings.
“I WANTED TO CREATE A MODERN LIVING SPACE WITH CRAFTSMANSHIP AND ART AT ITS HEART. THE SOARING SIX-METRE CEILINGS AND DRAMATIC LEAD-ARCH WINDOWS CALLED FOR A DESIGN THAT CELEBRATES LIGHT AND ATMOSPHERE.“
