I’m Mathieu, the creative force behind Maison Gilt. My approach is simple: I listen first, design second. Every project begins with understanding who you are, how you live, and what makes you feel at home.
You may have a dream, a mood board, a vague feeling — or simply a space that isn’t working yet. My role is to guide you from that first spark of inspiration all the way to a finished space that feels unmistakably yours.
Whether your taste is warm and bohemian, clean and chic, or boldly luxurious — I shape spaces around your vision, not mine. With access to the finest fabric houses, furniture makers, and trusted builders across the Netherlands, I’m with you every step of the way.

Our approach
Great interiors are built on the sum of their details. We don’t stop at the big picture — we go all the way down to the last handle, the grout colour, the exact hang of a curtain. Because the details are what you live with every day.
Working closely with you, we make every decision together — at whatever level of depth feels right for you. You can be involved in every single choice, or trust us to handle it all. Either way, nothing is left to chance.
“Every detail counts — up to the level that is right for you.”
Bespoke joinery designed around your space, your storage needs, and your aesthetic — built by the finest craftspeople.
From the layout to the worktop material to the tap finish — every element of your kitchen designed with intention and built to last.
Spa-quality bathrooms that balance beauty and function — tile selection, sanitaryware, lighting, and every fitting carefully considered.
Natural oak, marble, encaustic tile, polished concrete — we specify and source flooring that sets the tone for the entire space.
From hand-painted panoramas to woven grasscloths from Élitis and Arte — walls that are a statement, not an afterthought.
Large-format photography, original works, curated objects — art and material choices that give a room its soul and its story.
Light is the invisible material that defines how a space feels at every hour of the day. We create a full lighting plan for your home — combining ambient, accent, and task lighting to bring warmth, drama, and mood exactly where it is needed. From architectural recessed lighting to statement pendants and intimate bedside lamps — every light source is considered as part of the whole.
Why Maison Gilt
We know how hard it can be to translate what’s in your head into reality. You have a feeling, an image, a desire — but the gap between that and a finished space can feel overwhelming. That’s exactly where we come in.
With years of experience, a trusted network of the best builders, craftspeople, fabric houses, and suppliers in the Netherlands, we turn your thoughts and wishes into a home that exceeds your expectations — without the stress.
Whether it’s a full renovation from walls to finishes, or a beautiful styling project that breathes new life into your space — we take care of everything, from A to Z, in a completely transparent way. No surprises. No hidden costs. Just your dream, realised.
Experience & expertise
Every project draws on years of hands-on experience across private homes, apartments, and commercial spaces — so you benefit from knowledge built over hundreds of decisions.
Network & connections
Access to the finest suppliers, builders, fabric houses, and artisans in the Netherlands — relationships built over years that mean better quality, better pricing, and better results for you.
Transparent from day one
Clear timelines, honest cost overviews, and open communication throughout. You always know exactly where your project stands — no unwelcome surprises, ever.
Completely hassle-free
We coordinate every contractor, delivery, and decision on your behalf. Your only job is to enjoy watching your dream take shape.
How we work
From the first conversation to the final flourish — here is exactly how we bring your project to life.
We plan a first meeting — at your home or over coffee — to get to know each other and understand your space, your lifestyle, and your wishes. No obligations, just a conversation.
We ask the right questions and truly listen. Your desires, your references, your budget — everything matters. This is where we learn what your dream home really looks and feels like.
We present a detailed proposal: a design concept, a clear timeline, and a transparent cost overview. Everything is laid out so you can make a confident, informed decision.
Once you give us the go-ahead, we take care of everything. We manage every contractor, supplier, and detail — and deliver your dream home, on time and on budget.
What we do
For private residences and professional spaces alike — homes, apartments, offices, and commercial interiors.
Full interior styling, furniture selection, colour palettes, lighting design, and fabric sourcing — tailored entirely to your taste and lifestyle.
From structural changes to the final coat of paint — we manage every aspect of your renovation with trusted builders and craftspeople.
Transforming a bare shell into a home full of character. We work alongside your architect and builder to ensure every detail is considered.
Inspiring workspaces that reflect your brand and energise your team. From boutique offices to creative studios — spaces that work beautifully.
Access to exclusive suppliers and showrooms — from bespoke upholstery to rare vintage pieces — curated for quality, longevity, and beauty.
One point of contact for your entire project. We coordinate contractors, deliveries, and timelines so the process is seamless for you.
Amsterdam Relocation Service
Moving to Amsterdam from abroad is an exciting new chapter — but finding the right home and getting it ready can feel overwhelming from a distance. That’s where we come in.
We help you find your perfect Amsterdam home — whether to rent or to buy — and then we transform it into your dream space, fully designed and ready, before you even land.
The entire process is digitalised for you. You share your wishes, preferences, and decisions remotely — and we take care of absolutely everything on the ground. You’ll receive updates at the frequency that suits you, and we involve you in every important decision in a way that works around your life and timezone.
“Start your new Amsterdam chapter the way it deserves — in a home that already feels like yours.”
Using our local network and market knowledge, we search for the right property to rent or buy — matching your wishes, budget, and neighbourhood preferences — so you don’t have to do it from abroad.
Everything is managed digitally. You receive mood boards, proposals, material selections, and progress updates online — reviewed and approved at your own pace, wherever you are in the world.
We report back at a frequency that fits your needs — weekly, bi-weekly, or at key milestones. You stay in control and informed, without being overwhelmed by the details.
When you arrive in Amsterdam, your home is finished, styled, and waiting for you. Flowers on the table, art on the walls, every detail in place. Your new chapter begins exactly as it should.

FAQ
Everything you want to know before we meet — answered honestly.
We are based in the Netherlands but work across Europe. Whether your project is in Amsterdam, Paris, Antwerp, or further afield — we travel for the right project. Get in touch and we’ll discuss what’s possible.
It always starts with a conversation. Reach out via the contact form, email, or phone — and we’ll plan a first meeting at your home or a location of your choice. This first consultation is completely free and without obligation. We listen, we look at the space, and we get to know each other.
Nothing. The first consultation is always free. It’s a chance for us to understand your project and for you to get a feel for how we work — with no pressure and no commitment required.
It depends on the project. For full renovations and larger design projects we typically work with a fixed project price — so you always know exactly what you’re investing. For smaller styling projects or consultancy work, we can work on an hourly basis. We discuss this openly after the first meeting and always agree on everything in writing before we begin.
Both — and everything in between. We can take on a full project from the first sketch to the final styling, managing every contractor, supplier, and delivery on your behalf. Or we can focus purely on the interior design and styling if you already have builders in place. We adapt entirely to what you need.
It varies greatly depending on the scope. A styling project can be completed in a few weeks. A full renovation of a house typically takes between three and nine months. Every project comes with a clear timeline from the start — and we keep you updated throughout so there are never any surprises.
Absolutely — and this is actually where we work best. Most clients come to us with a feeling rather than a clear brief. A Pinterest board, a photo, a word, a memory — that’s enough to start. Our job is to ask the right questions and translate your instincts into a space that feels exactly right.
Yes. Alongside private homes and apartments, we design and renovate offices, studios, and commercial interiors. A well-designed workspace is just as important as a well-designed home — it shapes how people feel, focus, and perform every day.
As much or as little as you like. Some clients want to be involved in every decision — and we love that. Others prefer to hand everything over and be surprised by the result. We work around your preference and always keep you informed at every key milestone.
