Project Introduction
Every designer has a project that marks the beginning of their professional story—this executive office was mine. Designed in 2018, this space was my very first project, for my very first client—and it remains a cherished memory and lucky charm in my career. At its core, this office reflects the essence of leadership, calm authority, and understated luxury.
Design Concept
The vision was to craft an environment that felt powerful yet welcoming, a space where major decisions could be made in comfort, surrounded by elegance. The design speaks in tones of confidence and clarity, anchored by a custom green marble desk—a piece that would become my signature during this early phase of my work.
This bold choice of verde marble sits atop a sculptural walnut wood base, balancing visual weight with natural warmth. The desk isn’t just furniture—it’s a focal point that defines the room.

Personal Note: My First Step
This executive office holds a special place in my heart—it was the project that launched my design practice. Every decision, every material, every conversation with the client shaped my understanding of what it means to translate ambition into space. The green marble desk? It became my lucky charm, a symbol of courage, precision, and design conviction.
