Visionary, wellness-focused interiors for residential and hospitality spaces.

Spaces that breathe, settle the soul, and inspire.

Design is not just what you see. It’s what you feel when you enter a space. At Batten Court, we approach each project with curiosity and restraint, allowing the surroundings, structure, and spirit of our clients dictate our path. The result is work that’s deeply rooted, quietly luxurious, and unmistakably personal. Spaces that don’t shout, but stay with you, long after you’ve moved on.
