"I’ve always been fascinated by the relationship between a building's architecture and the atmosphere we create inside it. To me, a great interior is about finding the balance between the structural frame of a room and the tactile layers, the light, textures, and furniture that make it feel complete.”

I have had a lifelong curiosity for design that serves as the foundation of my professional practice. Plinth Amsterdam is the bringing of life to this ambition, the moment that lifelong interest evolved into a tangible, professional reality.

I have spent years as a quiet observer of well designed spaces, noting the play of light on a wall, the weight of a fabric, and the geometry of a perfectly proportioned room. My earlier career chapters took me through the fast-paced worlds of finance and fashion, which today serve to enhance and strengthen the visual and customer-centric approach I deploy.

Today, I bring that same obsessive eye for detail and my multi-disciplinary background to every project, turning a personal passion into intentional, lived-in homes.‍ ‍
