MY PORTFOLIO
01 RESIDENTIAL
ORGANIC MODERN
LIVING
Concept
This interior design style blends contemporary minimalism with warm, natural elements to create inviting, tranquil spaces. Soft neutral tones, organic textures, and understated décor define this aesthetic, emphasizing comfort and harmony. From cozy, layered bedrooms to thoughtfully styled bathrooms and workspaces, the design embodies a balance of functionality and serene beauty, perfect for modern living.
COASTAL LIVING
Concept
This design captures the essence of coastal living, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor spaces to create an airy, light-filled retreat. Accents of soft blue, natural textures, and open layouts evoke a breezy, relaxed vibe. The result is a serene sanctuary that brings the beauty of the coast into everyday living.
This project was designed with the client's well-being in mind. We incorporated plush bedding, natural materials, and integrated storage solutions to maximize space and minimize clutter. The result is a sanctuary that promotes relaxation and rejuvenation.
ALPINE CHIC
Concept
This vacation home reimagines traditional chalet aesthetics with a fresh, playful twist. Alpine Chic combines muted colors and a darker palette with rich textures, subtle patterns, and modern accents. Traditional alpine elements are reinterpreted with a contemporary flair, creating a cozy yet sophisticated atmosphere. Thoughtful storage solutions were integrated into a custom 3D plan, and a carefully designed lighting plan enhances the home’s warmth and functionality, making it the perfect retreat after a day on the slopes.
MID CENTURY ECLECTIC
Concept:
This design reflects the client’s love for bold colors, seamlessly incorporating them in a stylish and sophisticated way. Rich hues like aubergine, lush green and deep teal are complemented by natural materials such as wood and stone, creating a harmonious balance. Playful patterns and textures add character, while subtle mid-century accents lend a timeless, modern touch. The result is an inviting, refined space that celebrates individuality and elegance.
FLOOR PLANS
MONOCHROME WITH A TWIST
Concept:
This project embraces a minimalist, airy aesthetic, enhanced by soft sage pastel accents and playful shapes. A cognac hue paired with light oak wood tones brings a sense of warmth to the space. The backdrop of the design features some classic and traditional elements while clean lines, soft contrasts and muted tones create a serene and functional space.
Beyond the design, the scope of the project included a comprehensive paint and fabric schedule, ensuring cohesive finishes throughout. A detailed sample board and kitchen elevation were developed to bring the vision to life, combining simplicity and practicality in every detail.

LUXURY DENTAL CLINIC
Concept
This luxury dental clinic design combines high-end elegance with sophisticated functionality. A monochrome neural colour palette is complemented by luxurious marble and brass accents, creating an atmosphere of refinement. Cascading lights enhance the space's grandeur, while smartly delineated offices and treatment rooms ensure privacy and comfort. The classic façade design exudes timeless appeal, making the clinic a standout destination for both style and care.
SERENE BEAUTY RETREAT
Concept
This nail salon blends light neutral tones with soft pastel hues to create a contemporary and inviting environment. The design includes visualizations of a round podium and a welcoming reception area, complemented by a separate massage and pedicure zone for ultimate relaxation. To maximize space, dedicated schooling rooms are thoughtfully integrated. Brass accents add a touch of luxury, while greenery throughout the space brings life and freshness, creating a serene yet stylish environment for both clients and staff.
MODERN DELI & SOCIAL HUB
Concept:
This high-end deli and self-service store introduces a fresh concept where customers can grab a snack and then unwind with a drink in the separate social bar area. The design is reminiscent of a traditional Viennese deli, with bold elements that nod to its heritage. It features mosaic accent tiles and a glossy purple herringbone-tiled bar with matching brass lighting accents. Despite the compact space, the inclusion of greenery and a playful movie theatre LED sign adds character and novelty, making it a lively yet sophisticated destination. A pizza oven enhances the inviting atmosphere, blending traditional with contemporary and casual dining with a social vibe.
