WHAT MAKES SANTINI STUDIO DIFFERENT FROM OTHER DESIGN FIRMS?

We bridge the worlds of architecture, interiors, and construction. Our process is deeply collaborative and detail-driven, allowing us to take a project from concept to completion with precision and artistry. We don’t follow trends—we reinterpret them through a lens of Italian elegance, cultural sensitivity, and enduring design.

 

YOU WORK IN VERY DIFFERENT MARKETS—HOW DO YOU ADAPT TO EACH WHILE KEEPING YOUR SIGNATURE STYLE?

Each city has its own pulse. Aspen speaks of nature and reflection, Chicago of architecture and history, Miami of openness and light. What connects them is our approach: we listen to the place, to the client, and to the story the space wants to tell. The goal is always to design environments that enhance life and express individuality.

 

SANTINI STUDIO IS KNOWN FOR ITS DISTINCTIVE EUROPEAN TOUCH. HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOUR APPROACH
TO DESIGN?

At Santini Studio, we see design as a dialogue between culture, emotion, and place. Chiara and Ruggero’s Italian background influences everything we do—from proportion and light to materials and craftsmanship. Whether it’s a mountain retreat, an urban residence, or a boutique hospitality project, we aim to create spaces that feel refined, soulful, and timeless.

 

WHAT INSPIRES YOU RIGHT NOW?

Spaces that tell a story. We are inspired by craftsmanship, by materials that age gracefully, and by the way light shapes emotion within a space. Ultimately, design is about how it makes you feel—if it uplifts, soothes, and inspires, then it has achieved its purpose
