Art Focus Studio will Assert Itself on the International Market Even More 2nd October 2023 | IN EXPERT INSIGHT | BY SBID

The company’s founder, Reghina Ivanco, shares more details with us: “The story of Art Focus Studio and my business, which eventually led me to set up my own company, started when I was still in college. The graduation took place under the patronage of the President of the Republic of Moldova, Vladimir Voronin at that time. The topic of my diploma thesis was the reconstruction of the Luceafărul Theatre. I was awarded first place and a prize of 30,000 lei for the best diploma thesis. Thanks to this, I got a job at a big architectural firm, ARD, whose director was the famous architect Gheorghe D. Telpiz. He became my mentor and teacher, who taught me not only how to draw, but also how to run a business. All in all, working at ARD was a great experience for me. Gradually, I expanded my clientele. Then, at some point, I realized I was ready to work for myself and started my own company, Art Focus Studio based in Chisinau.”

What do you do?

Currently, the company specializes in interior design. We also help the client with the choice of materials. Apart from design, we also carry out turnkey projects. The main types of services we offer are the design of residential, commercial, and industrial buildings; 3D development and visualization, as well as project supervision.

The Art Focus Studio team consists of responsible and creative people, designers, or architects. In total, the team comprises six highly qualified professionals. Each of them is involved in the realization of individual projects. I carry out the functions of a project manager, generating new ideas, managing the project, and supervising the construction site.

Our work is based on several fundamental principles. First of all, we follow the rule “Less Talk, More Action”. Secondly, trust and empathy between the designer and the client are very important to us. We also value the ability to solve problems quickly and work on results. And, of course, the aesthetic side is essential for all of us.

What have you been working on?

We have a number of successful projects in our portfolio, both in Moldova and abroad. Basically, we deal with interior design and design in residential and commercial projects. Among the large-scale projects implemented in Moldova are Zity Mall and Oasis Mall. Both projects have been very interesting for us. For example, Oasis Mall is a luxury project. There will be stores of premium brands in the mall, i.e. the interior of the mall had to be representative and direct the visitor to a certain standard. We designed the interior in an Art Deco style and completed it with brass and bronze elements. As for the Oasis Mall project, it is still in the realization stage.

Successful projects include the Aquaterra Resort Holercani clubhouse on the banks of the Dniester River. On the site of a destroyed nine-story building, we designed the interior design of the apartments, restaurant, and swimming pool. We also did the interior design for the TREND chain of stores. As for projects abroad, our team designed a two-story residential house in St. Petersburg. Another project, no less interesting, is in Shanghai. We designed a showroom for the Italian furniture factory DV Homecollection.

For the second year in a row, our company was ranked in the top three in the category “Best Residential Interior Design of the Year” at the DAS Interiors Awards.

“Luxury of Shades”

A 170-square-meter apartment in the HIGH PARK clubhouse. The interior is designed in a modern style, close to luxury minimalism. The decor of the bedrooms is enriched by geometric textile panels, while colourful mirrors create a visual effect of infinite space. The LED lights, installed across the apartment, lead the eye from the central scene to the background, creating a wave-like effect. A pleasant haze of soft light envelops the space.

The Minimalist Atmosphere

A 165 sqm duplex penthouse for a young couple in minimalist style. The main decoration of the living room is the luxurious fibre concrete cupola, which creates an unusual light show that also delimits the space and creates a special atmosphere. The conceptual interior fulfils the basic objective of minimalism – conciseness.
