Hello - I’m Olga Kuzmina, an interior designer based in Lausanne, working across Switzerland.
I work with clients investing in new-build and residential projects, helping them define a clear direction and make confident design decisions from the earliest stages through to a cohesive final result.
From layouts and materials to furniture, lighting and finishing layers,
I bring structure and clarity to a process that can otherwise feel complex and overwhelming.
For me, design is not an aesthetic luxury - it’s a tool for clarity, coherence and confident decision-making.
How we help
Investing in a home - whether in a new development or an existing property - is a significant milestone, followed by a series of decisions that shape how you will actually live in the space.
From early choices about layouts, materials and lighting to later decisions around furniture and finishing touches,
each step influences how your home will function, feel and evolve over time.
Without a clear direction, this process can quickly become overwhelming and lead to costly or inconsistent decisions.
I help you approach it with structure and clarity. We first define how you want to live in the space, and translate that into a coherent interior - guiding key decisions along the way, from early planning through to the final layers.
This includes:
-
understanding your lifestyle and priorities
-
defining layout and overall direction
-
creating clear design concepts and visual support
-
guiding choices of materials, finishes and lighting
-
advising on custom elements and furniture
-
participating in key meetings and site visits
-
supporting decisions during implementation
-
sourcing and coordinating selected elements
Why this matters:
-
You make decisions with clarity and confidence when designing your home
-
You get a cohesive, complete interior - not a patchwork of random choices.
If you are at the stage of planning, starting a renovation or have just received the keys, this is where clarity matters most.
Let’s discuss your project and define the right direction from the start.
Testimonials
" This was our first house in Switzerland, and honestly everything felt new and unfamiliar. The house existed only on paper, construction had not even started, and I was facing hundreds of decisions while trying to understand a market I did not know well. My biggest concern was creating a home that would be elegant, comfortable, and truly fit our family, without making expensive mistakes along the way.
I started working with Olga from the very beginning of the project, and looking back, it was one of the best decisions we made. She was involved from the first plans until the day we moved in. What I appreciated most was not only her design talent, but also her practical advice, knowledge of the local market, proactive approach, and incredible attention to detail.
Building a family home is a complex process involving many contractors, suppliers, and decisions. Olga helped make this journey much easier and less stressful. She always made us feel confident that we were making the right choices.
What impressed me most was her ability to think ahead. Many times she pointed out things I would never have considered and helped solve potential problems before they appeared. Those small details made a huge difference in the final result.
The collaboration was always open, constructive, and enjoyable. Many great ideas came from our discussions, and together we created something much better than I originally imagined.
Today, our home feels warm, elegant, and very personal. It is exactly the place we wanted for our family. Every day we enjoy living here, and we are grateful for Olga’s contribution.
I would happily recommend Olga to anyone building a new home or renovating an existing one. Her involvement brings not only beautiful design but also confidence, structure, and peace of mind throughout the whole process."
" Working with Olga was one of the best decisions I made for my project. From the very early stages right through to the finishing touches, she supported me every step of the way.
Before we started, my biggest uncertainty was how all the pieces would come together. I had ideas, but no clear sense of how to turn them into a cohesive, functional space. Olga changed that completely. Her eye for design is exceptional, and her attention to detail is remarkable. She helped with absolutely everything: the room layouts, the bathrooms, the electrical layout (which was absolutely critical for this space), and every single piece of furniture, each one carefully and thoughtfully selected. And what really sets Olga apart is her care for the small things: she handpicked the wooden door handles, chose every lighting fixture, and considered countless little details that, on their own, might seem minor but together made an enormous difference to how the space feels.
What I valued most was how she guided me through decisions I would have found overwhelming on my own. The design process gave me real confidence instead of second-guessing myself, I trusted that each choice fit into a larger vision she helped me see. What surprised me most was how much those tiny details, alongside the bigger structural choices like room layouts and electrical work, shaped the final atmosphere. It's something you can only achieve when someone is genuinely invested in every aspect of the project.
The final result is a space that feels both elegant and genuinely liveable exactly what I hoped for but couldn't have achieved alone. Working with Olga didn't just improve the project; it elevated it, with her professionalism and care evident at every stage.
I wholeheartedly recommend this process to anyone planning a renovation or a new home. Having a professional who combines creative vision with meticulous attention to practical detail makes all the difference. I'm truly grateful for this partnership."
