Elevating Interiors,
Enhancing Well-being
Our Story
EST. 2013
Teranky Design is a full-service residential interior design studio creating refined homes that balance beauty, wellness, and sustainability. Our work spans custom homes, private residences, and full-scale renovations, serving clients in Southwestern Ontario, Canada; Northern Virginia in the United States; and select international locations.
Founded in 2012 by Ede Akpesiri‑Odia, a visionary designer whose life, education, and faith deeply inform her work.
The firm draws on over a decade of experience in design and project collaboration, guiding homeowners through every stage of the design process—from early concept to final installation.
Our work is rooted in the belief that a home should do more than look beautiful—it should support rest, connection, and everyday well-being. With a focus on natural materials, responsible sourcing, and thoughtful spatial flow, we create interiors that feel calm, elevated, and deeply livable.
Guided by faith and a strong sense of stewardship, we approach every project with integrity, care, and a commitment to creating spaces that endure.
Through close collaboration with homeowners, architects, and builders, our studio delivers interiors that are timeless, restorative, and thoughtfully composed.
Our work blends interior design, interior architecture, and renovation planning into one cohesive, elevated service—creating homes that feel timeless, peaceful, and deeply personal.
Our Philosophy
Simple, yet profound: every design choice should uplift the spirit, honor creation, and reflect a life well-lived. For us, true luxury is not just about aesthetics—it’s about harmony, meaning, and grace woven into every detail.
With design studios in London, Ontario, and Fairfax, Virginia, we proudly serve clients across Oakville, Burlington, the rest of Southern Ontario, and the Northern Virginia/DC Metro area, while extending our services to a discerning global clientele.
