The Velvet Strand Approach
A More Considered Way to Renovate
Many of the homes we see in Dublin are full of potential, but no longer suit the way people live now. Rooms feel cut off. Kitchens are too enclosed. Storage is lacking. The home has simply fallen out of step with modern family life.
Rather than focusing on isolated changes, we look at how the home should work as a whole. We create bespoke interiors and joinery-led renovations that are not only visually striking, but deeply practical and built around the realities of daily life.
The questions that shape the best renovation projects are never purely aesthetic. They are about how a home should feel to live in, every day.
Scope of Work
What a Luxury Home Renovation Can Include
No two renovation projects are the same, but the most successful ones are always designed with the full home in mind. What ties every element together is not simply style, but continuity.
In the Detail They Deserve
Crennigans: A Full Home Renovation
Crennigans
Dark timber, warm stone and joinery that feels architectural
Crennigans is an exceptional full home renovation that demonstrates how every design decision — from material selection to spatial planning — contributes to a result that feels entirely considered. Every detail, from the cabinetry profiles to the transitions between rooms, was designed with purpose.
Craftsmanship
The Role of Bespoke Joinery in a High-End Renovation
One of the defining features of a truly well-finished home is the quality of its built-in detail. Bespoke joinery allows every part of the home to feel more intentional, more useful and more beautifully integrated. These are the kinds of details that elevate a renovation far beyond surface-level decoration.
At Velvet Strand Design, bespoke joinery is often where a renovation moves from simply finished to truly exceptional.

Our Craft
Made with Purpose.
Finished to Last.
Every piece of joinery we produce begins as a considered design decision, not a product catalogue selection. Our approach to manufacturing is rooted in precision, material integrity and a commitment to craftsmanship that is visible in every finished piece.
We believe the best renovations are the ones that feel quietly exceptional. Not overworked. Not trend-driven. Just beautifully designed, well made and deeply liveable. That is the standard we aim for in every project we take on.
About Velvet Strand Design
Every Property Is Different
Renovations for Period and Contemporary Homes
Dublin homes vary enormously in character, and every renovation should respond to the property it belongs to. In both cases, the goal is the same: the renovation should feel lasting rather than trend-led.
Designed for Real Life
Renovating for Modern Family Living
A large part of our work is centred around making homes function better for modern family life. The homes that work best are the ones where every space has been properly thought through, including the practical ones. Luxury should never come at the expense of comfort.
Why Homeowners Choose to Renovate
Why Many Homeowners Renovate Instead of Move
For many Dublin homeowners, the issue is not the location. It is the way the house works. A well-planned renovation can completely change how a property feels without the disruption of moving elsewhere.
How We Work
Our Approach to Home Renovation
We are not interested in generic renovation work or interiors that feel formulaic. Every project should feel specific to the property, the client and the way the space is meant to function.
This is where a renovation becomes something much more meaningful than a standard update. It becomes a home that feels entirely your own.
Book a private consultationFrequently Asked Questions
How much does a luxury home renovation in Dublin cost? +
The cost depends on the scale of the project, the level of bespoke work involved and the quality of materials and finishes being used. Projects that include custom joinery, layout reconfiguration and higher-end specification will naturally require a greater level of investment. We discuss this in full during a private consultation.
Is it better to renovate the whole home at once? +
In many cases, yes. Even if the work is completed in phases, it is always beneficial to approach the home with an overall design plan in place. This helps create consistency and ensures the finished result feels coherent throughout, rather than a series of isolated improvements.
Can you include bespoke kitchens and fitted joinery as part of a renovation? +
Absolutely. Many of our renovation projects include bespoke kitchens, integrated storage, wardrobes, media units, utility spaces and other custom joinery elements designed specifically for the home. Joinery is often at the heart of what makes a renovation feel truly finished.
Do you work on period homes in Dublin? +
Yes. We work on both period and contemporary homes, tailoring the design approach to suit the character, structure and potential of each property. For period homes, the challenge is to improve functionality while preserving what makes the property special.
Is renovating worth it instead of moving? +
For many homeowners, renovation offers the opportunity to stay in a location they love while creating a home that better reflects how they want to live. When planned properly, it can completely transform the quality, functionality and enjoyment of a property, often at a lower cost and with far less disruption than moving.
