Great design, more than a visual experience, it’s a foundation for change, inspiring new ways of thinking and living. Leading minds in modern design are continuously redefining what is possible, shaping the future of furniture, interiors, and architecture. These top designers don’t just follow trends, they shape them, transforming spaces into works of art and inspiring generations to come.

 

At Stylish Club, we celebrate the brilliance of those who redefine contemporary design, fusing artistry with innovation. In this article, we explore the work of five extraordinary designers who inspired us: Camilla Bellini, Alina Skomarovska, Joseph Dirand, Holdlianh Campos Beiró, and Laura Hammett, whose unique perspectives align with our dedication to craftsmanship, innovation, and timeless design in the world of interiors and furniture.

 

 

Camilla Bellini

 

Camilla Bellini is a renowned Italian designer celebrated for her minimalistic approach to interior design and furniture design. Her designs beautifully mix tradition with innovation, expressing sophistication and functionality through clean lines, neutral colors, and a strong emphasis on materials, consequently producing spaces that exude timelessness and serenity – frequently drawing inspiration from nature, by incorporating elements like wood, stone and glass.

 

The Gurf A project is a remarkable example of her minimalist and elegant design philosophy. Located in Doha, Qatar, the private residence easily fuses Western and Eastern heritage, forming a serene atmosphere and practical space that highlights the coexistence of architecture and nature. Large windows allow natural light to flow between the inside and outside, while a neutral color palette, matched with natural materials such as stone, wood, and glass, contributes to a feeling of comfort. Gurf A reflects Bellini’s design philosophy of creating elegant spaces that are both beautiful and functional.

 

At Stylish Club, we believe that design is more than just appearance, as it influences how we experience and connect with our surroundings, creating pieces designed to enhance contemporary living, fostering a natural harmony between spaces and the way we live in them . Bellini’s approach in Gurf A reflects this idea, balancing elegance and functionality.

 

 

Alina Skomarovska

 

Alina Skomarovska, a distinguished Ukrainian interior designer and entrepreneur, has built a strong reputation in the design industry through her visionary leadership of EDesign Studio, an exclusive interior design company based in Vinnytsia, Ukraine.

 

Her approach is a smooth blend of contemporary design elements, paired with high-quality creating spaces that invite, inspire, and elevate the quality of living. Every project that Skomarovska undertakes, from private residences to commercial spaces, reflects the designer’s steady commitment to thoughtful design that enhances the living experience. 

 

Among Skomarovska’s projects is the Spacious project, a residential interior design work finished in 2023. The project showcases her design philosophy, merging luxury, space, and light harmoniously. The use of light and neutral shades enhances the sense of openness, fostering an environment that is both welcoming and broad. Additionally, the use of Gold accents and dark ceramic granite create a stunning harmony of elegance and sophistication, highlighting Skomarovska’s talent for merging classic beauty with contemporary design concepts. 

 

Alina Skomarovska’s designs go beyond just creating spaces, they focus on shaping environments that reflect sophistication, practicality, and an appreciation for beauty, making a significant impact on the world of interior design. 

 

 

Joseph Dirand

 

Acknowledged for his expertise in contemporary design, Joseph Dirand is a french architect and interior designer, celebrated for his minimalist approach that blends classic elements with modern design. Influenced by his family’s creative background, his father an interior photographer and his mother a fashion designer, Dirand followed in their footsteps, establishing himself as a distinguished architect and interior designer. 

 

His work is characterized by sharp lines, geometric accuracy, and a bold monochromatic color scheme. Dirand’s creations frequently include luxurious materials like marble, which he uses to create spaces that are both elegant and subtle. His creations show a profound respect for the “art de vivre”, easily fusing classic French design aspects with contemporary minimalism. 

 

One of his projects is Le Jardinier, a restaurant located in New York. This establishment serves as a peaceful escape from the hectic city, showcasing a bright interior that reflects the atmosphere of a vibrant indoor garden. Dirand’s design incorporates green marble walls and floors, moss-colored velvet chairs, and abundant greenery, with floor-to-ceiling windows enhancing the greenhouse-like ambiance for a serene urban escape.

Intended to transcend simple visual aesthetics, Sereno examines the impact of architectural features on human feelings. The space showcases gentle, organic textures, artisanal furniture, and thoughtfully designed lighting that matches circadian rhythms, establishing an environment that is both visually elegant and scientifically tuned to promote well-being.

 

Through Sereno, Beiró demonstrates that design goes beyond beauty, creating environments that captivate both the mind and soul. This vision lies at the heart of her work, as she constantly revisits luxury with a focus on human-centered principles in interior and architectural design.
