Viktoriya Afonova
VP of Design
I believe when one door closes, another one – a better one – will open.
Interior design was always a passion of mine, and I was excited to dive in and learn more. I loved the idea of being able to transform spaces and bring my clients’ visions to life. From window coverings to kitchens and bathrooms to flooring, I wanted to be able to handle it all. I started my own design business in 2009, working with a crew of talented tradespeople to bring my designs to life. It wasn’t easy, but the joy of seeing the final product and the gratitude of my clients made it all worthwhile. I especially loved working with my vendors because without them, none of this would be possible. Now nearly a decade later, I’m working towards getting my ASID certification, which will open even more opportunities for me. I don’t have a particular favorite room or style; I just love taking the time to understand my clients’ needs and helping them create a space that reflects who they are.
It’s the people I work with, both my clients and my team, that bring me the most joy and gratitude in this career.
