"An interior should be informed by the life that is lived in it."
- Sandra Hinton, Founder -
Up-and-coming on the local scene, Sandra Hinton (née Boitel) is a Zurich based interior designer and European tastemaker.
Her unapologetic passion for beautiful materials and exquisite craftsmanship, as well as her international and multifaceted background, make Sandra a refined designer with a keen eye for all things beautiful. Her design vernacular is one that balances sophistication and edge.
Actually aware of the role design plays in influencing the quality of life of the people occupying a space, she aims to create functional interiors that are timeless yet contemporary. “Being invited into a family’s most intimate quarters is always a great honor.
The responsibility of how design influences the quality of life of a space’s occupants, has always been a great motivator for me to create functional interiors that are not only timeless and beautiful, but also tell their owners’ story. An interior should be informed by the life that is lived in it. In return, that interior should make life easier and more pleasurable” she says.
