Maria Krylova - Interior Designer
Design Approach
Fifteen years of practice. Over a hundred projects - apartments, houses, offices - across Russia, Europe, and now the UK.
I moved from Moscow to London in 2023. The level of a Moscow studio, with real knowledge of the UK market.
I work full cycle. That means I'm there from the first conversation to the final photo shoot: concept, layout, materials, drawings, site visits, the decisions that come up at 9pm when something doesn't fit.
I don't just execute a client's Pinterest board. I listen, and I say what I think - pushing towards oak instead of grey laminate, a deeper green instead of the bright one from the catalogue. That's what you're hiring: judgment, not just delivery.
My interiors are quiet, not loud. Materials do the work - wood, stone, texture - rather than decoration stacked on top. Expensive should look considered, not shouted.
Based in London and Hertfordshire. I work with clients across the UK, in English and Russian.
Most of my projects are in Harpenden, St Albans and the surrounding Hertfordshire towns - Wheathampstead, Redbourn, Radlett - with clients across North London as well.
