Materiaali-ja värivalintoja, kolmio Savonlinnassa

A well-designed interior is a cohesive combination of functionality, safety, and beauty.

I am Päivi Auvinen, an interior designer from Savonlinna, and I draw my inspiration especially from materials, colors, and the architecture of spaces.

I have been working as an interior designer through my company, Olga Maria Design, for almost fifteen years. Over the years, I have designed a wide variety of projects, from cottages to manors, countless ordinary homes, commercial spaces, and restaurants.

I primarily work in Savonlinna and the surrounding municipalities, but I am also available for projects across Finland when needed. In recent years, my design projects have been in areas such as the Helsinki metropolitan area, , and in Lahti and in Tampere areas. I also offer remote services to my clients when necessary.

Services

Every renovation and interior design project is unique

As an interior designer, the most important thing for me is the client and their wishes. These wishes may relate to, for example, the functionality of the space, materials, colors, lighting, or any other specific detail the client desires. During the initial assessment visit, we will map out these exact needs and preferences.

My areas of expertise include planning the functionality of spaces, selecting colors and materials, designing lighting, and choosing all textiles used in the space.

My strength lies in executing and managing projects comprehensively for my clients, often based on a “turnkey” approach. This means the client can confidently leave the planning, measurements, material orders, and project supervision in my hands.

I am experienced in working efficiently with various contractors and have, over the years, built strong networks with builders and suppliers.

Get in touch, and let’s see how I can help you.
