How would you describe your work style? Do you have any kind of signatures that help to identify your projects?
My work style starts with the first contact with the space in which I get my first inspiration about the lighting, the materials, and the environment. Once this step is done, we start drawing in the plan and everything that comes next is “easier”. In addition, after talking about their necessities and analyzing the client’s personality, I always ask for a style, colors preference even though it is obvious that if they contact us, it is because our studio fits with their style, but we always adapt to every client’s style.
Some signatures that help identify my projects would be my color range which usually is very neutral, black, and white are a must, and the green that the vegetation brings. About materials, natural stone, and wood. In all my projects I give a lot of importance to the lighting, it is essential that the homes are luminous in order to achieve a good atmosphere that gives a warmer and more welcoming environment thanks to the indirect lighting.
Being in love with our work is always the key to achieving better results. Are you in love with this job? What do you love most about being an interior designer?
