About

Hi, I’m Kiana

Hi, I'm Kiana Kasravi, the founder of Home in Block, an interior design firm in Vancouver, BC that I run and manage myself. My passion for design stems from my love for creating beautiful, functional spaces that prioritize ergonomics, sustainability and the people who live in them.

What I do now

  • Home in Block. This is my interior design firm. I take on renovations and space redesigns, from the first conversation to the final drawings.
  • Paramount Home & Design. I also work at this luxury furniture store in Richmond, BC. I help clients choose furniture for their homes, support other interior designers as they furnish their own projects, and work as lead designer on the company's design projects.
  • Closet design. My work with Closets by Design taught me how much a well-planned closet can do. I now design closets from start to finish.

How I design

I take pride in incorporating local businesses and sustainable materials into my work, crafting spaces that are elegant and meaningful. With a blend of contemporary and industrial styles, my designs celebrate individuality, care and creativity.

Every room starts with questions. How do you use it now? What gets in your way? What do you want to keep? I would rather understand your home properly than arrive with a look already in mind.

Education

Beyond design
