Caren Wanjiku’s Home Transformation
How Prime House Interiors Transformed Caren Wanjiku’s Ngong Maisonette into a Stress-Free Home with Gypsum Ceilings and a Cozy Kitchen.
For many years, Caren Wanjiku lived in rented houses from Eastleigh to Pipeline and even Kawangware . Each time she moved, she told herself, “One day, I will build a home that is mine.” She worked hard, saved every month, and bought a 50 x 100 parcel of land for a residential house Ngong.
Two years later, when she finally finished building her five-bedroom maisonette, she felt both excitement and fear. She had the structure, but it did not feel like a home. The rooms were bare. The kitchen was crowded. The living room was cold and without character.
Caren wanted more than walls and a roof. She wanted a stress-free home, a place where her family could rest after the long hours of traffic jams in Nairobi. She wanted beauty, warmth, and pride.
That is when she decided to hire the best interior designers in Kenya.
Finding a Trustworthy Interior Design Company in Nairobi
Caren had heard the stories. Some friends hired fundis who took money and never returned. Others received poor work that had to be redone.
She did not want that. She needed professionals. After searching for the best interior designers in Nairobi, she chose Prime House Interiors (PHI).
At the first meeting, our team sat with her, listened to her needs, and walked with her through the house, brainstorming ideas.
We explained the process of interior design in Kenya, and gave her our design proposal that also outlined the budget, timelines, and materials. For Caren, our clear plan was the first moment of relief.

Creating Calm Ambience with Colors and Lights
Caren said one thing again and again: “I need a peaceful space when I come back home in the evenings.”
Our team suggested soft white and blue tones for the bedrooms and living spaces. Blue, we explained, helps the mind relax after stress. To balance the colors, we added warm neutrals on the walls and wooden finishes on the furniture.
In the living room, we installed several wall lights that gave a gentle evening glow and a centerpiece chandelier with soft lights. When Caren saw the new plan, she smiled. For the first time, she could see her dream coming alive.
How Gypsum Ceilings Made Everything Magical
The living room was most important for Caren. It was where her family would spend time together, and where guests would form their first impression.
Caren’s house had plain ceilings. They made the rooms feel unfinished. Prime House Interiors introduced her to gypsum ceilings, a favorite in interior design in Kenya. Hidden LED strips in the gypsum ceiling allowed her to change colors for different moods.
The result was more than decoration. The ceilings changed how light moved in the house. They made the rooms feel stylish, brighter, and modern. When Caren first walked into the completed living room, she whispered, “This feels like us.”
Making the Kitchen Feel Spacious
For years in rentals, Caren had lived with small, crowded kitchens. In her new maisonette, she wanted space to cook and gather.
Prime House Interiors designers re-planned the layout. We added cabinets that reached up to the ceiling, sliding drawers, and a beautiful pantry with matching metal handles. We sealed the deal with an island counter. Lights under the cabinets made work areas bright.
The new design saved space and gave Caren the storage she never thought possible. The wooden laminates matched her wall colors, creating a kitchen that was both functional and beautiful.
Today, she calls it the cozy corner. It is where her children do homework as she prepares dinner.
Timelines, Costs, and Professionalism
Caren was never stressed about time and money. Although she had heard of projects that dragged on for months, Prime House Interiors gave her a one-month timeline and kept it.
At every stage, our team sent her updates — photos, receipts, and progress notes. She saw materials being bought and workers on site. This gave her peace of mind.
When she compared the cost to the quality, she felt it was fair. She told her friends, “When you hire Prime House interiors, you’re guaranteed not just beauty but trust.”

The Final Reveal
On the day of the reveal, Caren’s family walked into a transformed living space in her residential house Ngong. It was thrilling. The beautiful wall colors, the calm ambience, and gypsum ceilings that shone with elegant light. The kitchen felt open and easy to cook in. Her children ran through the rooms happily taking pictures.
For Caren, the journey from renting in Nairobi to owning a personalized home in Ngong was complete.
Caren’s Message to Kenya Homeowners
We recently caught up with Caren, and this is what she had to say:
- A house is not a home. A house only becomes a home when the design reflects your life.
- Professionals give peace of mind — timelines, budgets, and quality are clear. Handymen are cheap, but cheap is expensive.
- Style matters, but so does comfort. Finish your house and turn it into a stress-free home that makes you proud of your years of hard work.
