Collaboration

As an interior designer and fine artist combine their talents, this is where aesthetics meet imagination.

We are a one-of-a-kind collaboration that goes beyond traditional design, filling places with infinite imagination.

The fine artist’s ability to create emotions through brushstrokes and colour blends beautifully with the interior designer’s keen eye for utility. Lindi from Maximalist Papaya and I, Mark from Krafthaus, will collaborate to transform interior spaces into living canvases, with each element telling a story.

Our collaboration creates living environments that reflect personality, from bespoke furniture that doubles as art to walls decorated with hand-painted murals. Prepare to be fascinated by homes that cross the boundaries between design and art, reinventing the concept of peaceful living.

About me

Hi, I am Mark

I began my career in retail, selling Persian carpets. After gaining enough retail experience, I took a one-year bicycle sabbatical. It was during this introspective journey that I found myself drawn towards the world of interior design. I fell in love with the notion of transforming existing spaces into new, beautiful, and efficient places to live and work.

My journey as an interior designer and felt maker has been distinguished by innovation, thanks to a passion for design and a strong eye for detail.

Creativity is the foundation of my method, allowing me to smoothly combine my aesthetic understanding with the objectives of my clients.

I have Business Acumen, Trend Identification, and Sustainable Practices in addition to technical competences.

This skill set enables me to create spaces that balance form and function, turning imaginations into living realities.
