They truly believe that design has a big influence on people, so mapping out the client’s needs and collaborating with them throughout the whole design process is of utmost importance.

“To design something is much more than just making renderings. Every time I start a new project, I get myself into it. All the colors, the style and the pieces of furniture give me a unique, personal experience. Every one of them is different. This is what I love about my job.”
I recommend the services offered by Studio11 because the design is made according to our taste and needs. But the project means more than that. You need to make sure that the information you receive is complete, easy to interpret, accessible and challenging. Leaving aside the fact that I benefited from all the information necessary to implement and bring the execution of the project in the mirror of the design. Studio11 offered me time and patience, which usually you do not find on the market. This actually generated lists of quantities, lists of manufacturers, guidance to different suppliers and often a 1 on 1 involvement with the product itself proposed for assembly. I recommend Studio11 for the quality of the result, but equally for the whole journey that we had been through in order to have the final result in front of your eyes. Thank you!
I requested for consulting services at Studio11 and their recommendations helped me a lot in making decisions. Kata is a patient, involved, attentive person with beautiful ideas. I recommend her with all confidence!
Throughout the project, Kata showed seriousness, but especially flexibility. Although our house is in the Netherlands, and she has never seen it in reality, she managed to do a fantastic job! With a lot of work and a few video calls, Kata thought even the smallest detail of our house. She always listened to us carefully, understood our style and came up with unique ideas. The result: a house that is almost 100 years old now looks like new, has a modern design and is exactly to our taste. We are very pleased with our collaboration with Studio11 and we recommend it with all confidence!
We highly recommend them! Although my husband and I had different ideas at first, Kata managed to find a common ground and make a design exactly to our taste. We really liked her involvement, the emphasis on modern, bold, minimalist ideas that fit any budget and last but not least her availability even after the project.
If you want something fresh, non-conformist and out of the patterns of classic design then Studio11 is the right choice. Besides the professionalism that Kata has shown, she is a very nice girl who gets involved in what she does and who helps you throughout the project with advice and guidance. Good job Kata and as many good projects as possible!
