The House of Peace: Olga Ashby Interiors Wins Residential Project of the Year
Paris Quai d'Orsay Project
At Liang & Eimil, we’ve always believed that design has the power to transform not just spaces - but emotions, daily rituals, and the way we live. Our furniture, lighting and accessories are created with this philosophy in mind: timeless elegance, modern craftsmanship, and a sense of home that feels both personal and elevated.
It’s no surprise, then, that when Olga Ashby Interiors unveiled their exceptional Paris Quai d'Orsay project - aptly titled The House of Peace - we knew it was something extraordinary. Set within the iconic Chelsea Barracks development, this serene, refined residence stood out immediately for its impeccable styling, architectural harmony, and deeply emotive storytelling. So much so, that it was awarded Winner of the Residential Project Award at the Liang & Eimil Award of the Year 2024.
A Space That Feels Like a Warm Embrace
Olga Ashby’s approach to interior design is rooted in emotional resonance. Every texture, shape, and piece within The House of Peace contributes to a space that evokes calm, clarity, and connection. It isn’t just beautiful - it’s deeply personal. In her own words, Olga describes the project as “The place you will never want to leave.”
This poetic vision is expressed through a soft, natural palette - creams, greiges, mossy greens, and wood tones - layered with tactile materials and sculptural silhouettes. The result is a sanctuary that speaks the language of refined minimalism, while still feeling rich, soulful, and lived-in.
Why This Project Was Our Winner
The Liang & Eimil Residential Project of the Year Award is about more than aesthetics - it’s about impact. It honours projects that not only demonstrate outstanding interior design, but also capture something truly meaningful about the human experience through space.
The House of Peace did just that.
It’s a space that resonates far beyond its architectural lines. It reminds us of what it means to come home - not simply to a place, but to a feeling. It’s that rare kind of project that stays with you long after you’ve left the room.
