The brief for The Old Library was a challenging one, primarily driven by budget and the amount of elements required. We made robust layouts that would attract users to the space and make the most of the buildings features.
We worked very closely with the clients and broader members of the community to help fund and build our proposals. We managed to create a big impact by selecting a clear material palette that appeals to the broad range of users to the space.
The key was to the success of the space was to get the layout right, making sure that the cafe could me minimally manned and making sure accessibility wouldn’t be an issue. Once this was agreed we managed to create a big impact by selecting a clear material palette that appeals to the broad range of users of the space.

The brief for Grade II Listed Old Library was a challenging one, primarily driven by budget and the amount of elements required. We made robust layouts that would attract users to the space and make the most of the buildings features. We introduced a back kitchen, accessible WC, a stage and a servery with plenty of space for seating and tables that could be removed and stacked for standing events.
Working closely with the client to understand the brief, the objectives of the space and the financial limitations we worked to create an affordable, yet impactful, community space. We worked with community members and local businesses who helped us create and affordably source certain elements as well as us getting involved with the decorating ourselves, it was an ‘all hands on deck’ situation!

By creating a stripe motif we were able to brand the space giving it a unique simple identity, we used this on the walls and across the front of the servery, this was then used in the logo for The Old Library.
We have developed a multi-use space tactically using layout, budget and resources to make a big impact.
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.
