History

Priya by Design is a interior design business specializing in residential and commercial spaces. As today’s interiors move from hard-edged minimalism towards comfortable simplicity, Priya seeks to provide its clients with warm, inviting interiors that are chic and timeless. Clients provide inspiration and much of Priya’s work is enhanced and improved by the client relationship. Priya’s signature is that there is not one look. From modern to traditional we work to create the best space for our client. Priya opened in 2000 and has been featured in magazines and on television.
