What Clients Say

We are absolutely delighted with Oksana's work! From the very beginning she showed an incredible understanding of what we needed and what we liked. Every stage of the project was full of creative ideas and attention to detail. Oksana combined style and function professionally, and made the space work. We particularly value her ability to find the balance between what we wanted and what was practical. Every element of the design was thought through carefully, and the result went beyond everything we had expected! She was always reachable, ready to answer any question and to make changes whenever they were needed. Communication was excellent: we always knew what stage the project was at and we could discuss anything. My family and I gladly recommend Oksana Shirvanova to anyone who wants to transform their space and get a professional approach to interior design.

I got to know Oksana through a furniture project for a dressing room. Oksana is a designer with taste who can draw, who can cost out any estimate, who knows how to organise a space properly and, as it turned out, how to find a way out of any dead end. And there are always dead ends, because a renovation is a process that pulls in a lot of specialists from very different trades. For me that was the deciding factor when I chose a designer. She is a professional, no question about it. I am still completely happy with her work to this day. Without her we would never have got the result we have.

I want to say how much I admire Oksana's fine taste. Her interiors are full of lightness and at the same time of a luxury that never overloads a room, it completes it. Her work stands out against the standard design project. The interior that inspired me most was the light kitchen from her flat project in Tyumen. That is why I went to her for advice and asked to borrow her idea for the routed cabinet fronts, which I ended up using in my own kitchen. Oksana is also very pleasant to deal with and she understands that for a client a renovation often means constantly changing your mind, because you want everything in your flat and you want it at once, and the longer the work drags on, the worse that gets)). One of the important parts of a renovation for a client is finding your designer, and for a designer finding your client. When those two meet, you get a beautiful picture and a happy life in a perfect interior afterwards!

I had heard about Oksana a long time ago but for ages I could not bring myself to get in touch, and that was a mistake, because talking to her turned out to be easy and tactful. For me she is simply a find, because from the very first meeting I understood that this is a person on my wavelength. We are working on the redesign of my flat right now.

Oksana had a difficult job: to work out what I actually needed, because my ideas about the style kept changing, and on top of that everything was organised over the internet, since I was in another country. A huge thank you to her for creating an individual, stylish interior, for her patience, her professionalism and her careful attention to every one of my wishes. The design project is very complete, it contains all the drawings, plans and everything else the building work needs. I was also helped with the choice of materials, furniture and decorative pieces. I wish Oksana continued success and new heights ahead.

Even while I was buying the flat I knew that Oksana would be the one designing it. She went beyond everything I expected. I want to share my impression of working with her and of her visualisations! Oksana regularly goes to events for designers and knows all the tricks of modern renovation, and she puts them to use in her work. If, like me, you do not understand the finer points of renovation, Oksana will help you choose finishes, furniture and decorative pieces. In my case she had a hard job. Fitting everything essential into a small flat. She managed to place a wardrobe for outdoor clothes in a narrow corridor, rework the walls and fit a large wardrobe into the bedroom. I am completely happy with Oksana's work. She is a specialist in her field with a great deal of experience. She will always understand you and offer the best option, so no difficulties come up in working with her. You can be entirely confident that your design project will be original, very beautiful and practical.

Hello! My name is Natalya. I came across Oksana Shirvanova's page somewhere on Instagram. I saw her projects and knew straight away: this is our designer. Oksana designed a flat for our son. An apartment of 66 m². It is one open space with no partitions, apart from the toilet. The option Oksana proposed charmed us and we said yes immediately (one of those moments when everything falls into place at once). The plan gave us a separate bedroom and a kitchen-living room with all the furniture arranged harmoniously in it, taking every one of our wishes into account. Oksana is very easy to talk to, and as a professional she understands you at half a word. She will always explain what is better and why. Choosing materials was no trouble whatsoever. Oksana helped us pick the tiles, the engineered wood flooring, the bathroom fittings and the doors (with the doors it was love at first sight: came, saw, bought). All of it is ordered already. All that is left is to build the project. I hope we manage it before New Year!

I was looking for an experienced designer who could produce not just a pretty picture but a flat that really works to live in. A professional in the fullest sense of the word! Very attentive to every task set and to every detail. She reads the client 100%! What I liked is that a sound layout came first, and beauty came second. The style we chose was mid-century modern. It is very relevant right now: clean lines, comfort, modern technology and the right light. She took absolutely everything into account. Thank you again, and I recommend her to anyone who is looking for real action rather than words and pictures!

I want to leave a review about Oksana Shirvanova as a professional who loves what she does. This was my first renovation with a designer (I was tired of the identical flats you see online, of the "make me one like that" approach and the hunt among friends that follows: "Oh, did they lay your tiles well? Did they level the walls? Were you happy with it?"). You ring round a pile of tradesmen, you lose your time, you buy the materials and so on, you get to feel all the "delights of a renovation", and the result is not always a joy. For me a renovation is something you do and then forget about for several years, better still for several decades )))) so that at best, after two or three years, you refresh the colour of the walls. Oksana was recommended to me by a friend (a huge MERCI to her) whose flat she had designed. Everything was clear and easy to picture, which matters a great deal, and I decided that I needed a designer. Our flat is not a new one, we have lived in it for 10 years, and the children who started school from here have grown up in the meantime, so the interior had aged and stopped working for us. I understood that designers are not that keen on small floor areas, so I had to wait until my turn came round. In the end, while I was waiting for the children's room, I decided I wanted the bathroom redone as well. And then came the pandemic ))) Right now we are in the middle of the work. I am very happy with the visualisation and with the way the renovation is organised, none of that scramble with materials and tradesmen, everyone does their own job. Everything is arranged clearly. Oksana chooses materials professionally, compares prices, finds the things that do not exist )))), plans the space rationally, and I really like the "nothing superfluous" approach. She is very easy to talk to, you could call it understanding at half a word, and the result of doing two rooms is that three more are booked in for next year. I am very happy with my first experience and I recommend Oksana as a true professional.

I ordered the project online. I live in Moscow with my family and we were planning to move to Nizhnevartovsk. We bought two flats and needed them replanned so that later, if we ever sold, they could be split without any trouble. The turnaround was as fast as it could possibly be. We had been warned about a longer wait because of the workload, so we really did not expect everything to be done that quickly. We approved the very first layout, it was so good that we did not even look at the other options. I recommend her to anyone who wants a real professional.

Hello! We are Zhenya and Alyona. We are a young family. No children yet, but we do have a much-loved pet cat. We work a lot, we love an active holiday (snowboarding, cycling, rollerblading, hiking, rafting and so on) and we value comfort. This is our first flat, so we chose carefully, starting with the neighbourhood the building is in and ending with the interior details we had been dreaming about for years. We never doubted for a moment that we would work with a designer. Going by the reviews and the portfolio we settled on Oksana and, as everything that followed showed, we were not wrong at all! The property is a two-room flat with a kitchen-living room and two bathrooms. A little over 60 m² in total. The developer handed it over in improved shell condition, so we had complete freedom. Or at least that is how it looked to us :) Before the work started we filled in the designer's questionnaires, where we set out our preferences on style and other general points, and the details we wanted for each room. We ordered a design project with design supervision from Oksana. We agreed every detail of the drawings with her and talked through what we wanted. Everything that could technically be built into the project was built into it. Anything that was difficult or impossible to achieve within our floor area and room sizes was taken out. And, strange as it sounds, that is exactly what we want to thank Oksana for! Because she found the right words and explained patiently, with arguments, why one thing or another would cause problems or simply made no sense in our situation. In the end that saved us a lot of time and money. Once the project was ready and approved we moved on to choosing the materials and the contractors needed to build it. At that stage our designer's experience and professionalism helped us again: taking our wishes into account, she was able to recommend specialists for every kind of work, both from her own experience of working with them and from what her colleagues had to say. So, under Oksana's careful guidance, we went the whole long way from imperfect concrete walls and empty rooms to a finished, comfortable home! Most of the constraints came from what we wanted: Scandinavian style, as few open surfaces as possible (so that dust does not gather, we both have allergies), no unnecessary details, ecological materials. We are also very fussy about details, and that often became a constraint too. And of course there was a financial limit, since the flat was bought with a mortgage. With no experience of working with a designer or of a turnkey renovation in a new flat, we were probably expecting miracles :) We thought that all you have to do is imagine it and building it will be easy. In reality it is not like that at all. However good your designer is, and however good the trades are, difficult moments always come up during the build. And in most cases the decisions will still be yours to make, because you are the one who will live in the place once the work is over. Thanks to Oksana's design supervision we understood clearly how each of our decisions would affect the final result, and we could take them with our eyes open, backed by her long experience on other projects. In any case, we were completely set on the result ourselves and, once we had seen how Oksana works, we had no doubt left that it would all come together! All in all, a little over two years passed between getting the keys and moving in. Looking back now at the amount of work that went into it, we certainly do not think that is a long time. Although we did run out of energy more than once along the way :) We moved in about two months ago and we have been enjoying every detail of our new flat ever since! We do not regret a single rouble, hour or ounce of effort, the result is definitely worth it! To anyone still wondering whether it is worth hiring a designer, we can give a straight answer: it is! And as for which designer to turn to, you have probably worked that out already :) Oksana, thank you so much!

Very impressed by the attention to detail and overall interior design knowledge and approach. I'm very happy with the result and will definitely use your service again in the future!

When we bought our flat we decided to go to a designer for the first time. We spent a long time looking through what was on offer in Tyumen and through the websites of various companies. Unfortunately, to our eyes there is very little genuinely original and worthwhile work in Tyumen. What we had in mind was an individual classical design for the flat, one where you could feel light, air and lightness. That was the idea we had when we opened Oksana's website, with its wonderful portfolio where you could see the hand of an artist straight away. We got in touch with Oksana, talked through every detail of the project and started building it. Throughout the work Oksana was very professional, creative, attentive and warm. She understood what we needed immediately. She cares a great deal about the quality of her work at every stage, from the client questionnaire through to the practical realisation of every idea. We have now finished the renovation of our flat to Oksana's design, and in the near future we plan to furnish the interior with her help. It is safe to say that if you want a creative and beautiful design, go to Oksana Shirvanova.

Oksana did the project for my shop. I should say that I did not clearly know what I wanted, but when I got the first sketches I was delighted, it was exactly how I would have wanted my shop to look. Refined, soft, elegant, with a French note. On the whole I enjoyed working with her for a lot of reasons. I like that Oksana is meticulous, focused, punctual, someone who knows her craft, and simply good company.

After moving to Tyumen from a small town in the north and buying a house just outside the city, our family faced the question of how to make our dream real: a house in the American classic style. At the same time we wanted to bring modern details and classical elements together in one interior. When we found Oksana Shirvanova's website online with her completed projects, it was clear that we and the designer saw interiors the same way, and meeting her in person confirmed it. Thanks to Oksana, our family now has an interior that is both functional and comfortable; she built it around the traditional style of American homes. A neutral colour palette, good natural wood, zoned lighting, Oksana created comfortable living conditions for every member of the family. There is still plenty of work ahead of us together, designing the furniture, choosing accessories and textiles, and we are absolutely certain that Oksana Shirvanova will bring every one of our ideas and dreams of a perfect home to life.

We came to Oksana at a point where a project in another city, with another designer, had run into a series of serious problems. I felt that our designer lacked perfectionism, experience and hands-on skill, particularly with natural stone. Going any further was simply frightening, large sums were about to be spent and there was not the slightest understanding of how any of it would be built. So I started looking for help, ended up on Oksana's website and realised that this was a professional I could trust 100%. Because of how busy Oksana is we work in one-off consultations, but in what they cover they are worth more than months with the first designer. So much useful, valuable advice, so many contacts, a full review of the project! Thank you so much!! A truly lovely person! We are planning to do the next design, in my parents' new flat, with Oksana's help as well.

I have known Oksana for a very long time, our paths crossed through work, but I had no idea she did design. I knew her as an intelligent, decent, very well-read person, I always noticed her taste in clothes and I like the way she approaches everything in life. Not long ago I found out she is a designer, and I decided to start by asking her advice on choosing a flat. We viewed several. I had never imagined how many subtleties there are in a floor plan, or what difficulties can appear later if you ignore the particulars of the flats that are on the market. We are still looking for the perfect flat for me, but now I know exactly what I do not want and what to look at in a layout. And of course I have already decided who is going to design that flat once I finally buy it.

Excellent interior designer with an impeccable feeling for minimalism. Work on the project ran smoothly and the result went beyond every expectation. Thank you very much, I recommend your services without hesitation. It was a real pleasure to work together. Until the next project!

This was our first experience of working with an interior designer. For almost a year we went back and forth over whether we needed a design project for the flat or not, and now we are very glad that we had one done, and above all that we chose Oksana. At our first meeting on site she suggested ideas we had never even thought of. All the work was done remotely, which was a huge plus for us. Oksana was always reachable. If a question came up, it was explained clearly and to the point. We saved a lot of time and energy on trips to showrooms and shops, material options came to us for approval, which was ideal, because shopping is not our favourite pastime ) Even after the work was finished, Oksana still helped whenever something came up. We are very grateful to Oksana for the design! The main work is done now and we have started ordering the furniture. We cannot wait to move into our new home!

We went to Oksana while the house was still being built, and starting the project that early turned out to be a good idea. We went back to the developer and the walls went up with our changes already in them. I had no idea that was even possible. It saved us a decent sum. I liked the designer's approach to the renovation: our child has allergies, and Oksana helped us choose the most ecological materials. Every last detail was thought through for comfortable living. Oksana took my demand that the house should have "as few dust traps as possible" entirely in her stride. I am very happy with the way we worked together.

Oksana is one of the best designers I have ever worked with, a woman with incredible energy and talent. I had worked with designers before, and I now understand that even with money you do not always end up with a beautiful renovation. Many designers try to over-design things just to charge more. I always knew you should trust a professional if you are paying for the service, but the experience of previous years put me on my guard and would not let me relax. Happily, all my worries turned out to be groundless. I am glad I found a designer who is really mine. I am sure we will keep working together.
