About Our House
A Private Passion for the Home, Now Open to You
House of Ellory began long before it had a name.
Our story reaches back to 2001, when a small group of people united by a genuine passion for beautiful interiors began working privately in design and furnishings. What began with the home would grow into more than two decades of experience spanning private residences, commercial interiors and hospitality spaces around the world.
Our work has taken us across North America, Europe, the Middle East, Asia and Africa, exposing us to different architectural traditions, cultures, materials and ways of living. From intimate residences to substantial private homes and spaces designed for hospitality and commerce, each project has contributed to an understanding that good design cannot be reduced to a particular look, period or trend.
It must first understand how a space will be lived in, experienced and remembered.
That experience has shaped an approach to interiors that considers not only beauty, but proportion, function, longevity and atmosphere; the relationship between architecture and furnishings, the character of natural materials, and the small details that ultimately determine how a space feels.
Today, we are bringing that experience to a wider audience through House of Ellory. A luxury interiors house devoted to creating and curating pieces of lasting beauty.
We believe a home should be more than beautifully furnished. It should feel collected rather than assembled; personal rather than prescribed. It should reflect the people who live there, accommodate the rhythms of everyday life, and become richer with time.
Our collections are rooted in the enduring elegance of European interiors while remaining deliberately unrestricted by a single period or style. Sculptural contemporary forms sit comfortably beside time-honored silhouettes. Richly figured woods meet natural stone, hand-finished metals, sumptuous textiles and carefully considered details.
From the grandeur of a traditional estate to the restraint of a contemporary residence, the warmth of a country farmhouse or the individuality of a city home, we believe exceptional design is not defined by one aesthetic.
It is defined by proportion, material, craftsmanship and the way a space makes you feel.
Creating. Curating. Designing.
House of Ellory brings together furniture, lighting, rugs, art, pianos, architectural pieces, objects for the table and considered details for the home. Some pieces are developed specifically for the House; others are carefully selected for the quality, craftsmanship or point of view they bring to an interior.
Our experience across residential, commercial and hospitality design also informs the way we develop and select our collections. A piece must do more than photograph beautifully. We consider how it occupies a room, how its proportions relate to the surrounding architecture, and how its materials will age and how it will function in the environment for which it is intended.
We are intentionally selective.
We are not interested in filling a space simply for the sake of filling it. We design pieces with presence and objects that can anchor a room, contribute to its architecture and live within the home. This becomes part of a family's story.
That philosophy extends to our made-to-order and bespoke collections, where materials, finishes and details can transform an object from something purchased into something distinctly personal.
More Than a Place to Shop
House of Ellory was also created to be a resource.
Purchasing significant pieces for a home online can raise questions that a photograph alone cannot answer. How should a sofa be constructed? What distinguishes a genuinely hand-knotted rug? Which upholstery performs best for the way you live? Will an oversized piece actually make it through your doors? What should you understand before commissioning something made to order?
We believe an informed customer is better equipped to create a home they will continue to love.
Through The House of Ellory Guide, our collections and our Design Atelier, we share knowledge accumulated through more than two decades of working with interiors, helping you better understand materials, craftsmanship, scale, care and the practical considerations that accompany important purchases for the home.
Whether you are furnishing an entire residence, completing a commercial or hospitality interior, working through a single room, searching for one extraordinary piece or simply learning more about good design, you are welcome here.
A Home Should Never Look Like Everyone Else's
Perhaps most importantly, we do not believe luxury is about creating a home that resembles a showroom.
The most memorable interiors are layered over time. They combine old and new, formal and relaxed, investment pieces and deeply personal objects. They leave room for books that have been read, tables around which people have gathered, art that means something and furniture that becomes associated with particular chapters of life.
Your home should tell your story, and not ours.
Our role is to bring experience, exceptional pieces, thoughtful guidance and a considered point of view to the process. It gives you the freedom to create a space that is unmistakably your own.
Welcome to House of Ellory.
Timeless European Elegance. Curated for the way you live.
