who we are

 

                 tí  [ pron. tee ] adj.

                Gaelic colloquialism for home, homely, a sense of belonging.

​

​

tí Design was founded to bring together a collective experience of designing for commercial clients and developers, and channeling that knowledge into designing spaces for discerning clients looking to make the most of where they spend their time – be that home or workplace. 

​

The Gaelic comes from our Scottish Irish heritage and our love of designing with the vernacular in mind - drawing on the richness of local craft and skill to intervene in existing buildings and create new ones that reinvigorate their surroundings, and their owners.
