About Maria

My story began in theatre, but somewhere along the way interior design found its place in my heart, and stayed.

As an actor, I was taught to search for the story behind every character: their beliefs, emotions and the small imperfections that make them unforgettable. Over time, I realised that creating spaces is not so different. Every home, workplace and interior has its own personality. Before thinking about colours, materials or furniture, I look for the people behind the space. It always begins with a conversation, which often leads to a painting, a memory, a dream or an everyday habit.

To me, discovering those details is the key to creating a space that feels as though it could belong to no one else.

Through Art Mo Square I have led residential and commercial projects from concept to implementation, combining creative direction with technical detailing, bespoke furniture and close collaboration with contractors, manufacturers and suppliers. I am particularly drawn to the point where design leaves the drawing and becomes something real: working through details, coordinating execution and finding practical solutions on site.

Today I am bringing that same approach into yacht interiors, where design, precision, craftsmanship and close coordination come together.

Now based in Rotterdam and open to project-based work with studios, yacht teams and private clients.
