design philosophy
​
Good design doesn't have to be an exclusive commodity. With a solid plan, an open mind, knowledge about materials and composition, it's possible to create a high-quality space- both functional and harmonious.
Complying with the rule that form should follow function, the client is always at the center of a good project. A detailed interview is essential to understand the needs, lifestyle and tastes of the future inhabitant. And on the basis of this knowledge - create the perfect space.
​
The second pillar is the budget. This information determines the materials and potential products, helping us avoid situations where the future resident has to live in a partially finished house until they can afford to furnish the rest.
Last but not least is taste. Contrary to the belief that discussing tastes is prohibited, I engage in extensive discussions with my clients. I am curious to learn about their preferences, favorite colors, preferred style, and any objects they consider absolute "no-gos." This knowledge enables me to combine their favorite elements in the most tasteful and stylish manner possible.
With each project, I pay attention to the smallest details. While I understand that not everyone may be as sensitive to these subtleties, I firmly believe that the difference is noticeable, even if only subconsciously.
