architecture & interior design
With a focus on residential design, we are passionate about integrating architecture and interior design to create spaces for our clients which are considered both inside and out. From extensions, loft conversions, restoration and new builds, we provide a range of services within the New Forest, the surrounding areas and across the UK.
â
We are a family run practice based in Lymington on the edge of the New Forest National Park, serving clients locally and throughout the UK for the past 4 years under the umbrella of our former business RK Design Studio which was established in 2021.
Led by Rachael Vradis (nee Kelly), a qualified architect and interior architect from Cork in Ireland.â
â
âWe love working with people and collaborating with other professionals. We endeavour to offer our clients an approachable and welcoming space to realise their ambitions for their home as we understand the significance of the investment involved, both emotionally and financially.
â
Nua is the Irish word for new/modern, representing our roots and the future vision for the practice.

"Rachael is amazing at what she does. From start to finish with our planning process. Rachael was so professional and lovely to work with. She was brilliant at taking on board all our ideas and understanding our style completely, while ensuring our vision would work with the space we had."
