Stephen Tozer founded Boaz Studio in 2018, inspired by his award-winning final project at Falmouth University. His extensive background in customer marketing provides a solid foundation for user-focused interior design, ensuring that clients and their end-users enjoy effective, memorable experiences within the spaces we create.
Outside of work, Stephen is a Papa of two and enjoys exploring Cornwall’s picturesque beaches with his family and their dog, Bailey. Stephen also shares his passion for design as a visiting lecturer at Bodmin College, Arts College Plymouth, and Falmouth University.
Alice Nightingale's deep appreciation for the natural world fuels her passion for sustainable design. With a keen eye for detail and proficiency and a number of strings to her bow, Alice excels at creating captivating visuals that engage and inspire our clients. She began her artistic journey studying art and design at Truro College before advancing to interior design at Falmouth University, where she graduated alongside Stephen.
Alice has worked on a wide range of creative projects outside of Boaz Studio, including photography, event marketing, and branding design. Alice was recognised as one of Cornwall’s 'Thirty under Thirty' in June 2024 for her fundamental role helping Boaz Studio to gain B Corp accreditation.
Bailey is a cherished member of the Boaz Studio team, bringing joy and warmth to our workspace. As our office dog, Bailey loves spending time on the studio sofa, offering a friendly presence and a wagging tail. When he's not brightening our days at the office, Bailey enjoys yomps along the stunning Cornish coastline, exploring the outdoors, and playing fetch. His cheerful spirit and companionship add a special touch to our team dynamic.
We used Boaz Studio as we needed some help reimagining our lounge after moving in just before having our first child. Our house wasn't working for us and our toddler. Stephen is so approachable and friendly and really listens. He's keen to understand what your needs and wants are as a client and then has an amazing way of turning that into something beautiful, practical, and personal. I am so impressed and would highly recommend Boaz Studio. On top of that, they're really professional, and communication is easy.
Stephen managed to build a true understanding of what we wanted and embed that in his conceptual designs. When we first saw those designs for a fresh and contemporary take on the heritage library, we knew that we would be creating something special.
I found boaz studio to be the perfect combination of design ideas and down to earth sense. They opened my eyes to aspects I hadn’t considered and delt with problems in creative ways.
You have been incredibly instrumental in the first part of this project and given us inspiration on how best to utilise our space, giving us vision on layout, design, style and colours. You are very skilled at what you do !!
Boaz Studio came in to advise on the complete refurbishment of the communal space here at Sunley Orford House, a purpose-built block of quality retirement housing in the centre of Truro. Having listened thoroughly to the design brief he provided well thought out advice on materials, colours and decoration with options that not only bring a more contemporary feel but will revitalise the space for the future. His thought and attention to detail was appreciated by all involved.
We worked with Boaz Studio to plan our two-storey extension and associated alterations to our house. We couldn't have done it without them, they were brilliant! Their thoughtful designs really made the most of the spaces, not only in terms of furnishings and decor but also really useful advice about positioning for doors and windows. Stephen and Alice are both fabulous at what they do and really lovely to work with. Highly recommended!
Boaz provided layouts and concept interior designs for our new home, and the results were fantastic: they managed to somehow provide us with something completely unexpected that was completely our style and what we wanted. We feel so much more confident managing the building work and decorating now, and can't wait to see it finished. Highly recommended.
Stephen and Alice worked with us to produce a design for the interior of our coffee house - their ability to bring together all of our different needs and ideas into one unified concept was fantastic - they have knack for drawing out the most efficient use of whatever space they're working with. First class.
