The challenge: design a compact open-plan kitchen that feels modern and elegant without losing warmth. The solution: a clean island layout in light wood with vertical slatted detailing, marble countertops and backsplash for refinement, and a dark accent ceiling that grounds the space. Indirect lighting under the cabinets and ceiling creates a soft, ambient glow that makes the kitchen feel inviting at any time of day. Black appliances and pendant lighting add quiet contrast.

A full interior renovation project where the challenge was not to reinvent the space, but to transform its soul. Working within the existing layout, every decision was focused on materiality and furnishings - a precise and deliberate exercise in interior design that proves how much a space can shift without moving a single wall. The result is a warm, layered Mediterranean atmosphere built from earthy tones, soft pastels, and rich textures that together create a sense of quiet comfort with an understated touch of luxury.

This project explores the balance between classic and modern within a mid-century inspired studio. Designed around a striking window with a mountain view, the space emphasizes simplicity and elegance through carefully selected materials and a subdued color palette, allowing the view to remain the true focal point.

The Cabin is a lightweight retreat nestled into the mountains, set within a working coffee plantation where the landscape is alive and the land carries meaning. Designed from the ground up around one guiding principle - intervene as little as possible - the cabin is elevated on "pilotes", lifting it gently above the hillside without altering the plantation beneath. This structural choice naturally led to a light construction system, one that adapts to the mountain rather than fighting it.
