Frida’s sense of aesthetic is highly refined and very well developed, and balances wellwith her knowledge of new trends and the general design landscape. I have worked with her on a number of projects of varying complexity, from smaller experiential to large scale commercial, throughout the entire design process.
She is great to have on a team, with an incredibly lovely attitude.
She has proven time and again her ability to think critically, come up with well researched solutions and communicate effectively both internally with the team and clients.
She has been instrumental in forming and maintain relationships with suppliers, particularly sustainable ones. Because of her high aesthetic and design sensibilities, she became a go to person in the team for sourcing, curating and managing purchase for any furnishing for any of the spaces we designed. Her eye for colour palettes and detail is impeccable.
She has ample experience in creating customer-facing presentations, with beautiful moodboards and very well thought through concepts and customer journeys. She is a fantastic hand drawer so can easily illustrate concepts and communicate them. She is experienced and detail-oriented in her drawing packs and has recently been upskilling on creating render and CGI visuals.
I would highly recommend Frida for her beautiful design sensibility, vibrantly creative ideas, and fantastic attitude.

I met Frida whilst working on a project at Westminster University- her work didn't just stand out but went on to win first prize that year at the London Interior Design Expo held that Spring.
From those early days, Frida's talent and impeccable taste have set her apart.
I'm always excited to see the work Frida's done - she approaches each project with a mix of creativity, intelligent thinking and originality. Her warmth, sensibility around materials and the environment and design vocabulary are exceptional. Highly recommended and more than happy to speak to anyone who would like any further references for Frida's character and abilities

Frida initially came to YS through winning an incredibly competitive competition for students.
Before arriving to us on an internship, Frida had already demonstrated incredible drive, creativity and passion to ensure she was the top candidate across the board.
During her short internship Frida made herself invaluable to the studio. She is a wonderful person to have around, a real asset whether she was approaching an individual task or working as part of a larger team. Frida has been at YourStudio for over 2 years, developing to be confident through all facets of a project from initial strategy to snagging on site.
