About the Studio
Interior design is my natural language.
For years, I have been designing interiors that are not only functional, but also welcoming. Spaces where one can find themselves and unwind. It all starts with proportions, light, and material. They build the atmosphere.
I'm not looking for an effect - I'm seeking harmony. The interiors I design have their own pace, rhythm, and tone. They don't overwhelm. They are grounded, free, and refined.
Out of the need to expand this language into something more personal, emerged a collection of original graphics and murals. It wasn't a plan or a strategy. It was a natural progression - a further continuation of the conversation about space.
Graphics and murals became an independent chapter of my work. They are not decorations. Not accessories. I treat them as interior elements - on par with furniture, wall structure, or light. Their role is not to stand out. They are meant to be present, yet unobtrusive. To work in the background, but with character.
I focus on balanced composition: color, texture, and form always function together. Patterns are created to harmonize with the interior - not compete with it. They are an invitation to peace. To breathe. To a silence where one can feel good.
Inspirations for the Collection
Inspirations come unhurriedly.
Most often from seemingly insignificant things - from a leaf fragment stuck to a window, from light playing on a wall on a cloudy day, from a fleeting reflection in water. They are quiet, sometimes almost imperceptible. But it is from such details that the mood is born.
What is found in this collection is not a description of reality - rather an echo of moments. It is a record of emotions, rhythm, structure. Shapes that are not always easy to name.
Sometimes they are references to plants - not directly, more as an impression. Other times - natural veining of stone, water movement, or a shifting shadow. There is a lot of intuition, softness, natural understatement in this collection.
I think abstractly and emotionally. I don't copy nature - I extract from it what moves me: space, movement, fluidity. I'm not looking for literalness or symmetry. I like moments where something blurs, shifts, doesn't end.
What is most precious is often on the verge of what is visible.
Graphics and murals are created in the rhythm of design work - as its extension. Always with the interiors they will inhabit in mind. They are like a soft layer - complementing proportions, emphasizing color palettes, completing the architecture of light.
I aim for these patterns to allow space to breathe.
To be a background that doesn't fade away - but also doesn't scream.
