Hi! I'm Elinor,

And for as long as I can remember, I’ve dreamed of becoming an Architect. As a child my favorite activity was designing, building and furnishing Lego houses. I imagined how I would transform my 870 sqft childhood apartment into a dream house and improve my family’s daily life.

​

​I was fortunate enough to realize my dream and earn my B.Arch degree from the Technion - Israel Institute of Technology. Among some of the firms I have worked with are YK Architects, designing residentials and upscale clinics from top to bottom, including custom made furniture, and Yashar Architects, where I took part in the complex planning process for high-rise buildings.

​

My life as a professional architect involved designing luxury residential and commercial projects, but my personal life as an adult was spent mostly as a serial renter of old and somewhat run-down apartments.

​

This bold contrast between my professional and personal life felt like living in a twilight zone where design meets reality, but it also helped me develop practical design strategies that fit even the most modest budget.

​

It also reinforced my belief that design is not a luxury, even if it's often perceived as one. Design significantly impacts our daily lives, and everyone deserves to love their home, whether it’s a tiny rental or a private house. And it’s doable, even with a limited budget!

 

I am now using my professional background and personal experience to make design approachable, reliable, and affordable, offering services both in-person and online.

 

Oh! And I also write a blog about it. Give it a look, will you?
