Iwona Budnik

Associate Interior Designer

Born in Poland, Iwona spent her teenage years travelling through South and North America before settling in London to study Interior Design at the London College of Communication. Alongside her studies, she worked in luxury hospitality venues—experience that later became invaluable to her design approach, giving her a deep understanding of how interiors shape the experience of both guests and staff.

Over a 14‑year career, Iwona has honed her craft across an impressive range of projects, from luxury private homes and multi‑residential developments to award‑winning hospitality, sports, and conference venues throughout Europe and the Middle East. She thrives in close collaboration with clients, designers, and skilled craftspeople, working collectively to create spaces that are imaginative, functional, and unmistakably distinctive.

Client comfort sits at the heart of her design process. Iwona enjoys every stage of a project, from early concept development to technical detailing, but is particularly energised by site coordination, where ideas take physical shape and design intent becomes reality. Her passion for creativity is constant, and her guiding principle is simple: to design with longevity, crafting environments that stand the test of time.

Outside the studio, Iwona is an avid reader of art history and architectural literature. She loves exploring antique fairs, restoring jewellery, and giving unusual pieces of furniture a new lease of life, continuing her commitment to beauty, craftsmanship, and preservation.
