BETWEEN MATERIAL AND MEANING

Founded in 2024 by Inna Strokous and Marius Schwald, Studio Bovti operates at the intersection of art and design — where objects move between sculpture and function.

At the core of the practice lies a focus on material, contrast, and transformation. Each piece emerges through direct engagement with matter, shaped by intuition, process, and a deep sensitivity to material behavior.

All works are unique pieces, produced exclusively by hand.

The collections express this approach in distinct ways: Cartapesta explores the tension between weight and fragility, combining natural stone with papier-mâché to challenge ideas of balance and permanence. Kinoko draws from organic diversity, translating natural forms into sculptural objects that shift between the soft and the monumental.

Across all works, Studio Bovti pursues a clear intention: to create objects that extend beyond utility — where material, narrative, and emotional resonance form a distinct language.

INTERIOR ARCHITECTURE WITH A PRECISE SIGNATURE

Our interior architecture is defined by precision, contrast, and a strong sensitivity to atmosphere.

Each project begins with an open dialogue and evolves into a spatial composition that goes beyond function — expressing identity and creating a lasting presence.

We work with deliberate contrasts — raw and refined, reduced and expressive — to develop spaces with depth and clarity. Informed by our background in collectible design, we understand interiors as carefully orchestrated compositions of material, proportion, and detail.

Projects are guided in a structured process aligned with the HOAI service phases, ensuring clarity in process, confidence in execution, and a consistently high design standard.

Our focus lies on high-quality interior fit-outs, developed in close collaboration with selected craftspeople and partners.

Each project is approached individually — with the ambition to create spaces that are precise, atmospheric, and enduring in their relevance.

INNA STROKOUS & MARIUS SCHWALD

Inna Strokous, born in Ukraine, studied architecture and shapes the studio’s expressive direction through her strong sense for material, contrast, and detail. Her experience as an interior designer and creative director informs a design language that is both intuitive and precise.

Marius Schwald, born in Germany, studied interior architecture and developed an early interest in craftsmanship and fabrication techniques. His experience in project management brings structural clarity and a strong focus on execution to the studio’s work.

Together, they bridge spatial design and object-making — developing a practice that merges architectural thinking with a sculptural, material-driven approach.
