Luxury Interior Designer in Kelowna, BC

Refined Living. Enduring Beauty. Thoughtful Design.

In Kelowna, nature is never just a backdrop it’s a way of life. Mornings begin with lake light streaming across vineyard hills. There’s a stillness between the orchards and the pines, a calm confidence in wide-open views and timeless architecture. Here, luxury doesn’t compete with the landscape it’s in harmony with it.

At Stephenson House, we create interiors that reflect the refined ease of Okanagan living. Whether you’re designing a lakefront retreat, a modern vineyard estate, or a heritage home in the heart of Kelowna, we bring your vision to life through layered textures, natural materials, and a thoughtful, deeply personal approach to design.

A Design Story of Elevated Tradition

Project Highlight: City Proper

Though based in a different region, the City Proper project reflects the exact kind of thoughtful transformation we bring to Kelowna homes — a blend of grace, precision, and high-function design.

This stately residence in a heritage-rich neighborhood was transformed through a layered approach that combined warm neutrals, custom furnishings, and curated finishes to balance elegance with everyday livability. We embraced the homeowners’ distinct aesthetics by using bold yet timeless tones like Farrow & Ball’s Green Smoke in the dining room, and a soft mix of Shaded and Wimborne Whites throughout the main living areas.

The kitchen renovation introduced tactile contrast and modern balance — with Dekton countertops, newly tiled floors, and clean-lined pendant lighting — while heritage touches like Morris & Co wallpaper in the powder room grounded the home in classic artistry. The updated fireplace, framed by a purpose-built wall, became a new focal point of grace and symmetry.

It’s this kind of elevated, detail-rich storytelling that defines our work — and what we bring to Kelowna clients looking to refine without erasing their home’s unique character.
