Interiors designed to be lived in.
I combine architectural thinking with an artist’s sensitivity to form, light, and material — creating calm, precise spaces that feel deeply personal.
A calm interior is not a trend. It’s a foundation.
I didn’t come to interiors through trends — I came through a culture where form is taken seriously. My background is rooted in art and craft: Stieglitz Academy, jewelry precision, applied arts and porcelain, and composition as a living structure. Today, all of this converges into one thing: space.
The goal is not “to decorate” — but to build a coherent atmosphere where light, objects, and proportions feel inevitable.
Architectural thinking
Space as a system: proportions, depth, movement, and light — not a set of random items.
An artist’s eye
Rhythm, silence, scale, accents — composition that feels natural, not forced.
Material culture
Porcelain, jewelry, craft — disciplined sensitivity to texture, quality, and detail.
Quiet aesthetics
Interiors that don’t scream — they mature, they age well, they become yours.
Projects
Selected interior decoration & concept studies. Calm palettes, natural materials, light scenarios.
Services
I work where the most value appears: the “last mile” of taste and coherence — and also the conceptual backbone that makes decisions consistent.
The interior shouldn’t perform. It should hold your life.
Interior styling & decoration
Palette, textiles, lighting, objects, wall composition, art selection — turning a “set of items” into a finished atmosphere.
Concept & selection
A coherent direction: materials, furniture, lighting scenarios, key accents — so the project has structure, not chaos.
Author supervision
Coordination, sourcing, and final styling — the “last meter” that makes the interior real.
Process
A clear workflow that respects your time — and protects the project’s integrity.
About Maria Yavein
Maria grew up in an architectural environment — and approaches interiors not as decoration, but as structure and meaning.
Her foundation comes from academic training at the St. Petersburg Stieglitz Academy — a school of proportion, form, and discipline. Her professional path is rare in how consistently it develops one core skill: shaping composition with respect for materials and human scale.
Jewelry-making trained precision. Floral composition trained rhythm and silence. Work with the Imperial Porcelain Factory refined object culture — where beauty must also function. Today, all of this expands into space: interiors become the place where architecture, applied art, and everyday life meet.
Background highlights
Stieglitz Academy • Jewelry practice • Author tableware & porcelain projects (IPF) • Floral composition • Interior decoration (New School of Design)
“I design interiors that don’t compete with a person — they support a person.”
The surname is not a label — it’s a context. Maria’s work stands on its own: calm, precise, and human.
Start a project
If you want an interior that feels coherent and calm — write a few lines. Maria replies personally and starts with a short call.
Typical first step: a short call + a few photos/plans. After that — proposal and clear scope.
