Introduction
Interior design is my passion!
I graduated as an interior designer in September 2021, and in November 2022 I launched my own business as a side venture, working as both an interior designer and home stager. In 2025, after 25 years as an employee, I decided to leave that behind and focus full-time on my business, which by then had been running successfully for more than two years.
In interior design, I am driven by the desire to help and motivated by the joy of creating. My services include both interior design consultation and full design planning. My mission is to bring interior design closer to people and to show that it holds immense value in many ways — not as an unattainable luxury reserved only for a privileged few. I continuously observe the real needs within our profession so that my services can respond effectively to them.
I place special emphasis on sustainability and the realization of unique ideas.
The slogan “recolor, reinvent” could not be closer to my philosophy. In interior design, alongside individuality, diversity — both literally and figuratively — is one of the greatest values for me.
Project description:
Waterfront holiday home where design resonates with nature
In this ground-floor apartment located in a residential complex, a compact kitchen opens from the entrance hall. It features a clean-lined, L-shaped two-tone kitchen unit with built-in appliances.
Considering the seasonal use of the property, I did not plan for permanent residence, so apart from the wardrobes, no large storage units were included. In return, the owners — a couple seeking relaxation — are welcomed by truly spacious interiors. Rounded, curved, organic forms run throughout the entire design, softening and making inviting the sunlit property surrounded by greenery and characterized by large windows and doors. The cool blue tones are balanced by coral accents, wood-effect wall cladding, and warm-toned vinyl flooring. Chrome details, which have become fashionable again this year, appear through the floor lamps.
The nearly 50 m² long and narrow living area accommodates not only the living room and dining functions but also a relaxation corner that offers space for reading and unwinding.
The doorless, open-concept relaxation zone creates a true sense of luxury. Its furnishing continues the colors used in the living room: alongside built-in wardrobes with curved corners blending into the wall plane, a comfortable sofa welcomes guests, while opposite it, the sleeping alcove features a low-profile double bed with clean lines, an oval vanity table, and a round pouf.
The property also includes two bathrooms: one equipped with a walk-in shower and bathtub, the other with a bathtub as well as a washer and dryer. Both bathrooms feature double sinks and toilets.
Although the competition focused specifically on the living area, the visual designs also include images of the relaxation zone.
