About Me

Hello! my name is Oliver, your go to guy for all things stylish and on-trend. Growing up near the Elbe River, I was influenced by Hamburg’s eclectic mix of historic warehouses and modern storefronts. London taught me the power of eclectic styling; Berlin taught me to push boundaries. My mission: to show you how to blend the best of European flair whether it’s a touch of Parisian chic or Scandinavian simplicity into your everyday home. When I’m not crafting a mood board, I’m seeking out the latest from Milan Design Week or testing eco-friendly materials in my studio.

Why do you love online interior design?

The internet dissolves borders today’s emerging Portuguese ceramics or Swedish lighting can be shipped anywhere. I love curating products from small European makers and giving them global exposure. Online design lets me connect people directly with unique pieces they might never have discovered.

What is your favorite piece?
