Hi, I’m  Daniela!

ABOUT ME

Designer, color person, and lifelong homebody with strong opinions about the color pink.

My work sits at the intersection of interiors, story, and emotion. I design spaces that feel honest—the kind that reflect who you are and how you want to live, not just what’s trending on Pinterest. Color is always at the center of what I do. It’s not just paint. It’s energy, intention, mood, memory.

Before interiors, I worked in magazines and brand storytelling, writing about design, style, and the quiet beauty of everyday things. That background still shapes how I approach my work: with curiosity, context, and a soft spot for the details most people overlook.

I now split my time between design consulting, editorial writing, and helping people build braver, more joyful homes through color. I also live in Hudson, NY, with my husband and our Basset Hound, Lady, who thinks she owns the place (she might be right).
