ÅBEN INTERIORS

HMO Design That Works Harder – For You and Your Investment

 

Helping property developers, business owners and home owners to create market leading spaces with award winning design, consultancy and staging services across the UK. At Åben Interiors, we create high-performing spaces that don’t just look beautiful, they boost your returns, attract better tenants or buyers, and stand the test of time.

We know that great design isn’t just about aesthetics. Your space needs to work for the end-user, comply with local regulations, and deliver long-term value. That’s especially true when it comes to HMO design, where the right layouts, finishes, and furnishing choices can make the difference between long voids and full occupancy.

With over 8 years of hands-on experience in property investment and development, we offer more than just interiors, we offer insight, strategy, and peace of mind.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY ABOUT US

  • We have received so many compliments and positive comments following the completion of our 6 bed HMO project in Birmingham. We worked with Adam and Sammie from the day we purchased the property right through until the end. They contributed to the project significantly, from drawing up the layouts, electrical plans and decorators plan, to sourcing furniture, staging the property and taking beautiful photos. The house feels cosy, inviting, and ready to offer our tenants a comfortable and welcoming home. We can't wait for them to experience it!

    Ben and Sophie HMO Design and Staging Project - Birmingham
  • Adam and Sammie did a fantastic job staging our 8 bed HMO in Liverpool for photography. The project was clearly very well thought out, with lots of detail and colour combinations that have materialised wonderfully in the photos. Communication was very smooth, super easy and understanding to work with. Would happily recommend and will definitely be using again! Thank you both 🙂
    Jess HMO Staging Projects
  • I worked with Aben on the staging of my high end 12 bed HMO in Manchester. They delivered a great service, all the rooms looked fantastic and we were able to hire their staging too for a few weeks which was helpful for marketing and viewing of the rooms

    Natalie 12 Bedroom HMO Staging Project
  • I worked with Sammie and Adam on my latest high end 6 bed conversion for professionals and it I cannot recommend them enough. They bring both complementary skills. Being themselves property investors, they have been able to provide advice and recommendations on the floor plans, layout and improve the flow in each area of the property as well as guidance towards meeting the HMO regulations and council guidelines. In addition, they have been able to capture my ideas and translate them into great design and mood boards that allowed to achieve higher rents than expected and have that wow effect during the viewings. You are in good hands if you work with them.

    Fatma A 6 Bedroom HMO Design Project
  • Sammie and Adam have had a profound impact on our home. They created a vision for our master suite that we could never have come up with ourselves. From start to finish, Sammie and Adam were on hand to provide us with the advice and guidance that we needed to realise our dream. Sammie has a great eye for creating unique features that will make your home truly one of a kind. We cannot recommend Sammie, Adam, and Åben highly enough.
