HEY
My name is Alina. I’m an interior architect with a love for exploring ideas across architecture, interior and exhibition design, set design, furniture and layout. Different scales, different stories — connected by the way spaces, materials and details shape how we experience the world.
I’m drawn to authentic spaces, honest materials and the little things that give a place its character. I like discovering what is already there, what can be transformed into something new and how a simple idea can become something meaningful.
Travelling through different countries, cultures and landscapes has shaped and inspired the way I see the world and approach my work. I collect impressions, details and ideas along the way — some find their way into my projects, others end up in my Field Notes.
So, have a look around. You might find a few layers of inspiration along the way.
Currently looking for new opportunities and adventures around the world. Excited to meet new people, discover different working cultures and see where the next chapter takes me. Have a project in mind or simply feel like saying hello?
