Available to hire
I’m Hilal SerraFelek, a Turkish designer specializing in furniture design and interior architecture. I’m currently based in Milano, Italy, exploring opportunities to relocate and expand my practice across furniture design and interior spaces, with hands-on experience in 3D modelling, material research, and production coordination.
I love collaborating in studio environments and on-site settings, guiding concepts from initial sketch to fabrication while keeping budgets in mind. My aim is to create pieces and spaces that tell a story, balance aesthetics with practicality, and delight users.
