Restoration and redesign of furniture and interiors
Furniture and interior restoration and redesign are more relevant than ever. And not only because they transform something old into something new and save money for our clients, but also because they create unique, artistic pieces infused with preserved memories and a completely fresh look. With the idea of being as helpful as possible to our clients, I’m sharing several useful questions and answers related to redesign.
“Tell us a bit about your work. You specialize in redesign and restoration. Could you describe in detail what that involves?”
– As a designer and artist, I never imagined I’d end up working professionally in redesign and restoration. Over time, I discovered just how incredible redesign truly is. In my view, it’s like being a magician—breathing new life into something old, without creating waste. It transforms an object into something unique and original, which is what I love the most. Against the backdrop of mass production and commercialism, redesign to me is like an uncut diamond—you just need to polish it to make it shine in its full beauty.
- What kind of people seek out your services, and what are the biggest challenges in your day-to-day work?
– My clients are very diverse—from those who, for one reason or another, can’t afford to buy new pieces but have sturdy furniture and accessories they’d like to simplify and refresh through redesign. To clients who own solid wood furniture—real treasures—durable, defect-free, with hand-carved ornamentation that holds high value in itself. These clients often simply want a complete visual transformation of their pieces and interiors. For them, finances aren’t an issue. They just love quality and uniqueness.
- Why do your clients want to restore something? It suggests that the piece holds sentimental or intrinsic value to them, right?
– Yes, some clients are deeply attached to certain pieces of furniture or accessories, which often have significant artistic value. They want restoration without altering the original appearance. These beautiful pieces have preserved their warm memories and personal history. There’s so much life in them…
- Which of your projects are you most proud of and bring you the greatest personal satisfaction?
– In my work as a designer and artist, emotional inspiration is the most important element. To create something original and truly unique, I need to think differently—with great passion and emotion. I forget that I’m working and simply enjoy the process, like a child at play. Time disappears, and I keep going as long as I’m having fun—and that’s the most enjoyable part. The paints and materials I use are eco-friendly and non-toxic.
