Thoughtful concepts. Distinctive spaces. Carefully designed details
✦ About MeI design public interiors and objects with a focus on research, clear concepts and carefully considered details. I am a final-year Interior Design student at HSE Art and Design School, with professional experience in the field. My interests include educational spaces, hospitality, retail and exhibition design, alongside furniture and lighting. I begin each project by understanding its context and the people who will use it. This helps me develop a design language that connects the overall space with its individual elements.✦ EducationHSE Art and Design School BA in Interior Design | 2023–2027
How Can I Help You?
A public interior needs to respond to different users, practical requirements and a specific identity. A clear concept brings these demands together and guides decisions throughout the project. I can contribute through research, concept development, space planning, technical drawings, 3D visualisation and custom furniture design. I am interested in collaborating with architecture and interior design studios, organisations developing public spaces, and furniture and lighting brands.✦ My ApproachUnderstand the context → Develop the concept → Resolve the space → Design the details
School Interior Design
✦A learning environment shaped by the idea of community.
The Challenge
The task was to create a shared identity for primary, middle and senior school, while responding to the different needs of each age group. Working with an architectural layout provided by ATRIUM, we needed to connect classrooms, recreation areas and shared facilities through a coherent interior concept.
Research
A student survey highlighted a need for informal reading areas, charging points, lockers, places to socialise and more flexible learning spaces. All identified requests were incorporated into the proposed design, making student needs an integral part of the project.
Concept & Solution
The concept is based on the circle as a symbol of community, dialogue and shared development. A rounded central atrium becomes the school’s gathering place, accommodating informal communication, events and collaborative activities. The circular motif connects the interior with the school’s visual identity.Colour distinguishes different areas: green identifies primary school, blue and pink differentiate classroom types in middle and senior school, while beige connects shared spaces. A spherical mascot, Shurik, extends the concept into wayfinding and information points.
Results
— Developed a consistent concept across different age groups — Incorporated all needs identified through the student survey — Defined the atrium as a shared social centre — Connected interiors, furniture and wayfinding through form and colour — Produced visualisations, drawings and supporting design materialsOne concept connecting learning, communication and belonging.Hotel in Derbent
✦ A contemporary hospitality concept inspired by local crafts.
The Challenge
The task was to develop comfortable contemporary interiors that express the identity of Derbent. The design needed to connect the city’s cultural heritage with the everyday requirements of a hotel, creating a consistent approach across the lobby, guest rooms and circulation spaces.The scope included standard and suite interiors, a lobby with a bar, corridors and an accessible standard-room layout.
Concept & Solution
The interiors reinterpret the traditional crafts that contributed to Derbent’s cultural identity.In the lobby, nets suspended across the ceiling reference fishing and the city’s maritime heritage. This overhead element gives the shared space a recognisable character.In the guest rooms, craft references appear at a more intimate scale. Furniture textures and hardware details draw on ceramics and textiles in standard and junior rooms, and on metalwork and jewellery in suites.
Results
— Developed an interior concept rooted in local craft heritage — Created a distinctive lobby through a suspended net installation — Translated craft references into furniture textures and hardware details — Prepared layouts, visualisations and technical drawings for selected interiors — Considered accessibility through a dedicated standard-room layoutLocal heritage expressed through spatial gestures and carefully designed details.Shamballa Jewels Showroom
✦ A retail interior translating brand values into a spatial experience.
The Challenge
The task was to create a showroom that communicates the identity of Shamballa Jewels while supporting jewellery display and the customer journey.My research explored the brand’s symbolism, existing stores, materials and audience. The key challenge was to bring together its Buddhist influences and Scandinavian restraint within a clear, functional retail environment.
Concept & Solution
The layout takes inspiration from circular movement around a focal point in Buddhist temples. This principle shapes the route between display cases and encourages visitors to explore the jewellery from different viewpoints.The design retains recognisable elements of the brand’s visual language: pale surfaces, dark natural wood, stone and arched displays.Freestanding cases, relief ornament and colour accents introduce an individual interpretation, with colour referencing the natural stones used in the jewellery.
