ABOUT
Designs with character.
As an interior designer I am passionate about creating spaces where identity, functionality, quality and aesthetics come together. I am particularly interested in the use of sustainable materials and the development of creative, bespoke solutions that benefit both the user and the environment. With a holistic approach and creative vision, I translate my clients' identity and aspirations into unique, future-proof designs.
Education and experience
My journey into the world of interior design began at the Royal Academy of Art (KABK) in The Hague, where I studied architectural design, specialising in architecture, interior design and furniture design. During my studies I not only designed interiors, but also created custom furniture, murals and logos for individuals, companies and hospitality businesses.
After graduating in 1997, I gained several years of practical experience as an independent interior and furniture designer under the name Studio Plamen van Dijk. During this time I developed a deeper understanding of materials and craftsmanship, which continues to influence my designs today. I then worked for many years as an interior designer for leading architecture and design firms, where I further developed my expertise and realised various projects.
Own studio and philosophy
I believe that good design begins with the well-being of the user and strive to create meaningful spaces that transcend the purely functional. Working closely with my clients and local specialists, I create timeless interiors and exteriors that enhance wellbeing and comfort.
In 2009 I founded my own design studio, originally called LTD STUDIO B.V. (Listen. Think. Design.), with a focus on corporate interiors. In early 2023 I changed the name to Plamen van Dijk | Design Studio to better reflect my personal involvement and vision.
