Creating a beautiful home isn’t just about choosing the right furniture or colors—it’s about ensuring your interior design aligns seamlessly with the architectural style of your space. At OAK Architecture & Interior, we believe true design harmony happens when architecture and interiors work together from the foundation up.
Whether you’re designing a new home or renovating an existing one, understanding this relationship can transform your space into a timeless masterpiece.

• Industrial Architecture: exposed brick, steel, raw finishes
• Contemporary Architecture: fluid spaces, soft edges, creative geometry

Matching geometry ensures that the interior does not visually clash with the building’s fo
