DESIGN APPROACH
Carla Herrera values the specific over the formulaic, a tailored approach that seeks to understand the unique requirements of each client and execute projects accordingly. She favours spaces that are resilient and have been designed to respect, support and welcome the changing circumstances we encounter in everyday life. As every project is singular and unique, Herrera chooses an intimate approach that can chart out specific design tactics that disclose new perspectives for her client’s homes and businesses.
Carla Herrera offers design services for a broad range of commercial and private clients. She designs strategic solutions that reveal, translate and amplify your hopes and wishes for the cosmopolitan spaces in which you live, work and present your products. In close partnership and collaboration with experienced artisans she designs site- and purpose specific furniture to follow and support her design strategies.
