Background
Oraanj Interior Design has won the “Interior Designer of the Year” award at the 2025 Eastern Eye Property Awards. The ceremony was held at the Park Plaza Riverbank London Hotel and recognised the studio for its originality, creativity, and designs that go beyond looks to improve people’s daily lives.
The Aminu Umar Residence in London was one of the outstanding projects that turned a gloomy, fragmented house into a warm and well-decorated home. To achieve a home that can be unique and meaningful to the culture, the design incorporated the modern style with some features of the Nigerian heritage, such as custom artwork, textures, and furnishings.
Rachana Gupta, Director of Oraanj Interior Design, said, “When Alhaji Umar described his home as his ‘sanctuary,’ we knew we had created something truly meaningful. Design is about people, their stories, and their connection to a space.” She also noted that the award honors the entire team’s creativity and hard work. “It shows that design is meant to enhance lives and build spaces that reflect people and their cultures,” Gupta said.
The Eastern Eye Property Awards, hosted by Asian Media Group, recognize outstanding achievements in property development, architecture, and design. London-based Oraanj Interior Design is rebranding residential and commercial spaces into useful, stylish, and inspirational living spaces, defining new levels of luxury and culturally informed interior design.
