How We Can Work Together

Studio Chintamani offers a range of design services that reflect what we value most — calm, connection, sustainability, and spaces that feel like they belong to the people who use them. Led by designer, educator and writer Chintamani Bird, our approach is personal, thoughtful, and grounded in real-world experience. Here’s what we do (and love):

Let’s Create Calm, Together

Architectural Design

I approach architectural design services as a balance between form and feeling - yes, we solve the practical problems, but we also think about how the space breathes, where the light lands, and how people will move through it.


Studio Chintamani offers light architectural services including concept design, spatial planning, and documentation. I often collaborate with architects, consultants and clients to help shape the feel and flow of a space from early design through to submission — always with care and clarity.

Interior Design

Sustainable & Biophilic Design Consulting

Architectural Design

Interior design is about more than choosing colours and cushions — it’s about creating spaces that lift you up and reflect who you are (or what your brand stands for).

In homes, I focus on what supports your life: spaces that are practical and calming, personal but not precious. In workplaces, I design for clarity, connection, and expression — so your team and clients feel grounded and welcome the moment they walk in.


Expect thoughtful questions, a collaborative process, and plenty of honest advice along the way. I’m here to make it easier - and more joyful - to get the space you need.

I’m deeply committed to sustainability — not as a buzzword, but as a design principle that should sit at the heart of every project. Through consulting, I help clients, designers, and teams integrate biophilic interior design and eco-conscious strategies in ways that are achievable, evidence-based, and meaningful.


Whether you need help selecting materials, embedding sustainable practices, or translating abstract values into practical design choices, I’m here to support and guide with warmth and clarity.

Biophilic Design

Biophilic design is the science (and the soul) of connecting people with nature through space. It’s not just plants - it’s light, flow, texture, views, sounds, and the way a room feels when you exhale in it.


The research is clear: environments that echo natural patterns reduce stress, support wellbeing, and help people feel more present and at ease. I design with that in mind — combining lived experience, curiosity, and detail-oriented thinking to create interiors that feel good to be in.

Whether you’re building a home or reimagining a small business space, I bring the same approach - thoughtful, collaborative, and always grounded in how people really live and work.


Residential: I design homes that feel calm, functional, and just right for you. Spaces that grow with your life, support your routines, and reflect who you are (without being overly precious).


Commercial: From studios and clinics to cafes and co-working spaces, I design interiors that balance identity, purpose, and practicality. They work hard, look beautiful, and feel good to be in — for clients, teams, and everyone in between.

Sometimes the right piece doesn’t exist yet - so we design it. I work with local makers and suppliers to create bespoke joinery that’s beautiful, functional, and tailored to your space.


Whether it’s a custom bench seat, a storage solution that actually works, or a statement piece that ties the whole room together, we’ll co-create something unique and lasting.

Writer

Educator & Speaker

Educator & Speaker

I write about the spaces we inhabit and why they matter — especially when it comes to sustainability, wellbeing, and design that supports mental health. I’m a regular contributor to The Journal of Biophilic Design, and love finding ways to make complex ideas feel relatable and useful.


Writing is also a service I offer. If you need clear, engaging words to tell the story of your space, your brand, or your values — I can help. Whether it's website content, articles, or something in between, my goal is to bring meaning and warmth to the page.

Educator & Speaker

Educator & Speaker

Educator & Speaker

Before Studio Chintamani, I spent over a decade in education and student support — so sharing knowledge and creating supportive spaces comes naturally to me.


As a speaker and educator, I offer talks and workshops on biophilic design, sustainable interiors, and the emotional impact of space. I love connecting with groups — from industry professionals to community organisations — and making design feel practical, inspiring, and deeply human.

If you're looking for someone to demystify the design process, explore how space affects wellbeing, or spark a conversation about sustainability, I’d love to help.
