About Malphor

Spaces that feel like home—and say something about you.

Malphor is a boutique interior design studio led by French-born designer Dominique Malacarne, who brings a holistic, intuitive approach to creating spaces that truly reflect the people who live in them.

With a background as an art director in London’s lifestyle magazine world, Dominique has always had a deep eye for style and storytelling. Her shift from the flat page to three-dimensional space came from a desire to shape environments that not only look beautiful—but feel right. Today, she creates homes that speak to both heart and mind: places that support how you live, inspire how you feel, and express who you are.

Design, with soul and intention

Every project begins with listening. Dominique’s process is grounded in understanding how you want to feel in your space—whether that’s calm, inspired, comforted, or energised—and how your home needs to function in daily life.

She blends biophilic principles, refined French elegance, and a love of natural materials and layered textures to craft environments that are warm, soulful, and quietly sophisticated. Whether you’re renovating a small flat or designing a family home, the focus is always on authenticity, emotional connection, and timeless design that feels effortless.

Design is a conversation

No two clients are the same, and no two homes should be either. Dominique works closely with each homeowner to uncover what truly matters—visually, practically, and emotionally. From the big picture to the smallest detail, she ensures the process feels collaborative, thoughtful, and completely centred around you.

Whether you’re dreaming of a full transformation or need guidance to bring clarity to your ideas, Malphor helps you create a space where you can feel well, live well, and simply be yourself.
