House of Kin is the only design studio focussing solely on creating spaces, installations and art for family led projects. Founded in 2019 and longlisted for a Dezeen award in 2021, we approach every project aiming to create inspiring, play-led installations that are one of a kind. We work with artists, micro suppliers and industry specialists to challenge stereotypes and lazy thinking about ‘kids design’ and deliver settings that are truly unique. Our cross functional team of architects, artists and designers has international experience delivering complex solutions to playful problems.
