About Hyndman Studio
Founded and led by principal designer Ruth Hyndman, Hyndman Studio is a California-based interior design studio creating highly livable spaces rooted in a deep appreciation for craftsmanship and timeless design. With a background that bridges multiple design and artistic disciplines, Ruth brings a richly layered perspective to every project—one shaped by her British upbringing and European sensibility.
​
Born and raised in England, Ruth holds an honors degree in Graphic Design and began her creative career working in London’s West End. Over the years, her journey has included roles as a product designer and ceramic artist and sculptor, with her ceramic work featured in museum stores including the SFMOMA and New York Museum of Art and Design, as well as galleries across the United States and works held in private collections worldwide.
​
The last twenty years has seen Ruth working as an interior designer and interior architect, with significant on-site experience throughout the construction phase of projects. Her transition into interior design was a natural evolution—drawing upon her eye for detail; her understanding of form, proportion, texture and balance; and her lifelong exposure to exceptional design.
​
At Hyndman Studio, we craft spaces that blend artistic expression with functionality and comfort. Our design philosophy centers on curated materials, enduring forms, and interiors that evoke both beauty and ease.
Through close collaboration with our clients, we create environments that are not only visually compelling but deeply personal and livable.
With our exceptional understanding of the construction process, we create technical and considered spaces based on a knowledge of how house systems work and what your contractor will need.
​
Each project is guided by Ruth’s signature approach—refined, creative, and always rooted in a respect for design that lasts.
