Sorcha Harman, Founder of Porcha Design is an interior designer based between Dublin and Berlin, working across Europe and beyond.

Her practice is rooted in luxury residential interior design high-end residential renovations, period homes, contemporary residences, and bespoke new builds, with a focus on projects that require both sensitivity and precision.

Before establishing her own studio, she built her experience at Suzie McAdam Design as Design Manager, and previously at Optimise Design, developing a strong foundation in complex residential interior design and high-end renovation projects. Alongside this, she has worked across Los Angeles, London, and Dublin within established interior design studios, bringing a broad and internationally informed perspective to private residential interiors.

Textiles remain a starting point in her process rather than an afterthought. They inform atmosphere, material direction, and the layering of spaces from the earliest stages of a project.

Her work moves between Georgian and Victorian townhouse renovations, large family homes, and contemporary residential interiors, alongside selected hospitality projects in California, London, and the Cotswolds. Her work has been featured in IMAGE Interiors, House & Home, and Robb Report.

How I Work

I begin each project by developing a considered colour narrative, a guiding framework that informs architectural decisions, finishes, and furnishings alike. This ensures every element feels intentional and cohesive.

Through collaborative concept development, schemes evolve into detailed drawings, sample studies, and fully resolved design proposals. I oversee the complete specification of Furniture, Fixtures, and Equipment (FF&E), ensuring materials, joinery, lighting, and bespoke elements are thoughtfully integrated and aligned with the project’s budget and timeline.

From initial concept through to final installation, I manage the entire design journey with precision and clarity, working closely with architects, contractors, and specialist craftspeople to deliver cohesive, characterful interiors.

  • "Six years later, I am so happy that I followed her suggestions".

    I went to Sorcha for advice when . redecorating my home in Dublin in 2018. She did not disappoint. Her eye for colour, her recommendations for paints and fabrics, prints, lighting and custom made furniture were absolutely wonderful and most importantly within budget. Six years later, I am so happy that I followed her suggestions and have a lovely home which I enjoy being in every day.

  • "We didn't want the project to end".

    Sorcha was an absolute pleasure to work with; we didn’t want the project to end.
    She encouraged us to be brave with our choices- and we couldn’t be more proud of our new house, a home for our family of five which now feels like “us” and are so happy to live in. She was able to swiftly identify and prioritise the areas that would help us achieve the most in terms of visual impact, functionality, and within budget. Sorcha listened to us but has great intuition- she understood what we wanted and more importantly, needed, even when we were unable to communicate it ourselves. Through her experience, creativity and network of outstanding tradespeople- we were able to achieve beautiful custom furniture, bespoke curtains, and so many other unique elements for our home.

    The whole process start to finish was such a delightful and fun experience!
