I am trained as an interior designer and landscape architect, and I am currently continuing my path in architectural research.

 

In my research, I explore how space and the objects around us reflect identity — both personal and contextual — and how people experience and live within these environments. I see this as an important topic, as the places we inhabit shape us more than we often realise: our homes, favourite cafés, workplaces, terraces, or even the cities we visit. Sometimes we return from a journey and can’t quite explain why we feel like a different person.

 

As a Ukrainian who spent ten years living abroad and eventually returned home, I also work with the idea of a contemporary Ukrainian aesthetic. This led me to create Salviri Home — a line of interior decor that reinterprets traditional craftsmanship and cultural imagery in a modern context.

 

I share more thoughts on space in my blog, and in my Instagram, which you can find below.
