Interiors & Environments

Architecturally-driven interior design for the spaces where people gather, shop, dine, and work. Every material choice, every sight line, every threshold carries intention.

KINN Studios designs commercial interiors that operate on two registers: spatial function and narrative depth. We bring the same curatorial discipline to a Calgary restaurant interior as we would to a gallery installation, because we believe the built environment deserves that level of care.

Our interior design practice spans retail, hospitality, and commercial environments across Calgary and Southern Alberta. We work from initial concept through full buildout, handling floorplans with 3D mock-ups, space planning, material specification, curated procurement, and custom fabrication. The result is never decoration applied to a shell. It is an environment designed from the inside out.

Whether the project is a boutique storefront in Inglewood, a new restaurant concept in the Beltline, or a co-working lobby in the East Village, our approach remains consistent: understand the brand, read the architecture, and design a space that earns the attention it occupies.

Retail Environments

Boutique storefronts, showrooms, and retail interiors designed to translate brand identity into spatial experience. Visual merchandising is not an afterthought here. In Calgary's evolving retail landscape, the physical space is the most persuasive brand asset a business owns.

Hospitality Interiors

Restaurants, cafes, bars, and lounges where atmosphere is the product. We design hospitality spaces in Calgary that shape the guest experience before the first menu is opened, working with operators who understand that a dining room is a stage for memory.

Commercial Spaces

Offices, co-working environments, lobbies, and common areas designed to reflect organizational culture and support the people who use them. Calgary's commercial spaces are catching up to the reality that interiors shape recruitment, retention, and reputation.

Custom Fabrication

Built-in elements, display systems, bespoke fixtures, and millwork designed and fabricated to the specific requirements of each project. When off-the-shelf falls short, we design and build what the space actually needs, working with Calgary trades and fabricators we trust.
