commercial interior designer
Retail - Horeca - Product Presentation - Store Concepts
After 8 years as a freelance designer for IKEA, I now focus fully on commercial spaces. For brands and businesses that know where they want to go, but need a clear, functional, and efficient design to get there.
My strength: turning strategy into spaces that work.
Functional. Efficient. Clear in their message.
I work on:
-
Refresh of existing shops
-
Rebuilds / renovations
-
Product presentation & merchandising
-
Complete store concepts
Including both IKEA and non-IKEA projects.


How We Work
-
First meeting: we get to know each other, define your goals, and determine the steps needed.
-
Understanding your “why”: what do you want to change and why? If this isn’t clear yet, we start with a strategy workshop.
-
Concept phase: you receive a mood board and a first rough layout.
-
Detail phase: after approval, we develop detailed plans and technical documents.
-
Execution: we coordinate the external companies and follow the works until opening.
IKEA experience
My journey with IKEA began in 2010. I started at IKEA Ghent as an Interior Designer in the Com&In team, and later grew into the role of Interior Design Manager.
After seven inspiring years, I chose to become a freelancer in early 2017. To gain more creative freedom, explore personal projects, and work internationally.
Since then, I have supported IKEA stores across several countries with design, planning, implementation, and coordination of both sales and non-sales areas. My work includes roomsets, homes, customer meeting points, and commercial planning area, as well as training and guiding local teams
