GET TO KNOW ME
Hi there I’m Donnie, an interior and brand designer with a love for travel and storytelling through design. I like to think of myself as an "interior cosmopolitan," drawing inspiration from the colors, cultures, and vibes I encounter, from New York’s concrete jungle to the vibrant houses of Bo Kaap, Cape Town.
With my Spanish and Dutch roots, my designs blend contrasts: the grounded, practical Dutch mentality with the warm, expressive Spanish temperament. This balance allows me to merge functionality with creativity, crafting spaces and brand experiences that are both visually beautiful and deeply authentic.
One of my strongest skills is creating unique concepts for business-to-business projects. I believe a brand identity is more than just a logo, it’s the full experience.
I love designing spaces and brand concepts that bring a company’s essence to life, making them stand out in memorable ways. I focus on both the big picture and the small details that add character, creating a truly unforgettable experience.
WHAT SETS ME APART?
I don’t do one-size-fits-all. Every project is personal, and I tailor my approach to fit your needs. From realistic design renders to selecting the perfect cutlery or tableware, I handle it all.
Working online allows me to collaborate seamlessly with clients worldwide, ensuring top-quality results no matter where you are.
My journey began at the renowned Jan des Bouvrie College, building a strong interior design foundation, and later expanded through courses at Akademie Vogue, where I refined both the art and technique of design.
When I’m not transforming spaces or shaping brands, you’ll find me exploring restaurants and cafés, binge-watching TV (guilty pleasure: reality shows), or getting lost in The Sims, creating entire worlds from scratch.
