Yuriy Zimenko
A digital portfolio for a Kyiv interior designer whose work demands silence and space — where the website is an extension of architectural thinking.
Yuriy Zimenko is an interior designer and architect from Kyiv. Over 12 years of practice: private apartments, showrooms, restaurants, and one furniture collection of his own authorship. When he came to us, his digital presence amounted to an Instagram bio and a Behance folder. Lots of work, zero context.
The task we defined together: to build not a "business card site" but a portfolio space where each interior reads as a distinct story — with floor plans, concept, materials, final photography and a short text on "what was difficult here".
Seven weeks — from the first meeting to the launch of the first version featuring nine completed projects.
