The Design Barn
Welcome to The Design Barn – A Luxury Fabric & Wallcovering Studio
The Design Barn is a luxury fabric and wallcovering studio, offering a carefully curated selection of international brands for both residential and commercial projects. With over 20 years of experience, we work closely with homeowners, designers and architects to create considered, timeless interiors that balance beauty, functionality and longevity.
Our studio provides access to an extensive range of high-end fabrics, wallpapers, bespoke curtains and interior finishes, selected for their quality, craftsmanship and design integrity. Each consultation is led by experienced specialists who guide you through the selection process, ensuring every element is tailored to your space, style and practical requirements.
From initial concept to final specification, our approach is thoughtful, collaborative and detail-driven — supporting confident design decisions and refined interior outcomes.
What We Offer
Design Without Compromise
Too often, homeowners and designers are forced to compromise on quality. Without access to luxury fabrics and wallcoverings, many settle for mass-produced options that lack individuality, refinement and longevity. The result is interiors that feel repetitive, ordinary and devoid of character.
At The Design Barn, we believe that high-end living deserves high-end finishes. The right fabrics and wallcoverings have the power to transform a space - adding depth, warmth and a sense of timeless luxury. By providing access to exclusive, world-class materials, we ensure that every detail contributes to an interior that feels distinctive, elevated and beautifully complete.
Why Choose Us
The Design Barn brings luxury interiors within reach in the West of Ireland. Clients no longer need to travel to Dublin or abroad to access the world’s finest fabrics and wallcoverings - we have curated an exceptional collection locally, featuring internationally renowned brands chosen for their craftsmanship, design integrity and enduring appeal.
Guided by experienced designers and specialists, we offer a consultation-led approach that provides clarity and confidence at every stage. From selection to specification, clients benefit from expert insight, refined choice and reassurance under one roof.
The Art of Lasting Elegance
At The Design Barn, every detail is carefully considered to ensure interiors are not only beautiful, but flawlessly executed. Our expertise allows us to translate ideas into spaces that feel refined, harmonious and timeless.
Through expertly curated colour palettes, fabric selections and design schemes, we bring cohesion to every project, ensuring each element works seamlessly together. Clients benefit from informed guidance that helps avoid costly missteps while achieving a high-end, considered finish.
Luxury is about lasting impact, and it begins with quality. By sourcing only the finest fabrics and wallcoverings, we help create interiors that are visually striking, enduring and deeply personal - spaces designed to stand the test of time.
Our Package Service
Day 1: Home Visit (1.5 - 2 hours)
We begin with an in-home consultation where we review your design goals, inspirations, and practical requirements. During this visit we take detailed measurements, capture reference photos, and discuss preferences such as window treatments, fabric finishes, and operation styles. This ensures every element of your project is considered from the outset.
Design Development
Between your home visit and studio session, our design team prepares tailored schemes, sourcing fabrics, wallcoverings, and finishes from our extensive library. Each proposal is carefully curated to suit your lifestyle, taste, and budget.
Day 2: Studio Visit (1.5 - 2 hours)
In our design studio, you will be presented with bespoke proposals, complete with material samples, finishes, and design recommendations. Following this session, we provide a detailed quotation (subject to confirmation of measurements by our fitters and manufacturers).
Investment and Value
The consultation fee of €450 + VAT represents far more than a standard design service — it is an investment in expertise, exclusivity, and peace of mind. From the moment we begin, you gain access to our carefully curated library of international fabrics and wallcoverings, along with the professional guidance of our qualified designers and specialists.
Every scheme we prepare is unique to your home, tailored with precision to reflect your style, your requirements, and your aspirations. There is no obligation to proceed beyond the consultation, yet the value lies in the clarity and confidence you gain — avoiding costly mistakes, unsuitable purchases, or finishes that fall short of true quality.
For clients who demand the very best, this consultation forms the foundation of a luxury design journey: one that transforms ideas into interiors of enduring elegance.
