Studio + Approach

Design Fellow is an interior design studio with over a decade of experience creating concept-driven spaces that support both business and experiential goals. Led by Stephanie Bowles and Joel Hunking, our work is grounded in a simple belief: strong ideas, thoughtfully executed, create meaningful value for our clients.

Shaped by years of close collaboration at Life House Hotels in New York and Mason Studio in Toronto, our approach is rooted in partnership, curiosity, and care. Our experience spans hospitality, commercial, multi-unit residential, and single-family residential projects across North America - each one built through close collaboration with our clients from vision through delivery.

We see ourselves not just as designers, but as committed project partners. Our clients value a team that is nimble, responsive, and deeply invested in their success. We listen closely, think strategically, and design with intention, creating interiors that are grounded in context, inspired by place, and tailored to the people who will experience them.
