Stephanie Stirm, Interior Designer

About

With over a decade of experience in interior design, I specialize in creating sophisticated corporate workplaces for high-end clients, with a particular focus on the banking, insurance, and wealth management sectors. My design approach balances creativity with functionality, ensuring spaces not only meet business needs but also inspire and engage employees. I am passionate about crafting environments that evoke emotion and create memorable experiences while aligning with a company's culture and values.

Beyond my design work, I am dedicated to mentoring emerging talent and integrating sustainability into my projects. I thrive on pushing the boundaries of conventional design, developing thought-provoking, progressive ideas that set new standards in the industry. My goal is to design spaces that enhance well-being, foster connection, and leave a lasting impact on those who experience them.

Creed

"Storytelling is the basis of our pursuit as human beings. We crave experiences that evoke something within us that we want to share with the world. Stitched through design, my legacy as an interior artist is curating a memorable emotional response: a space that not only tells a story, but creates one.

Respect the story & be the makers of livable art. Let's express together."
