Designing Spaces Around the Lives They're Meant to Hold
Every project begins with people. Not finishes. Not furniture. Not trends. People — how they live, how they work, how they gather, how they celebrate, how they dream.

As Founder and Creative Director of Yaara Design Studio, Christine Oganga — known to clients and friends as Tina Kwamboka — creates timeless interiors where thoughtful planning, refined craftsmanship and meaningful design come together to shape spaces that feel effortless to live in and unforgettable to experience.

They begin with listening — understanding how you live, how you welcome people, how your property should feel, and how every room should support the life happening inside it. Only then does every material, texture, finish and detail begin to tell one complete story. Not ours. Yours.
A documented process that removes the fear of the unknown — from first conversation to final reveal.
Consultation, site assessment and a clear brief.
Concept boards, material palette, 3D renders.
Revisions until the vision is exactly right.
Sourcing, contractors, on-site management.
Styling, final walkthrough, handover.
We've designed full residences for clients based in London, Dubai and the US — every consultation is available on video call, in any time zone.
Refined execution, down to the smallest detail.
Every material and finish chosen with purpose, not trend.
Honest budgets and clear timelines, always.
Your story at the centre of every decision.
Thirty minutes, no obligation — a conversation, not a sales pitch.
