Private Clients Offering

At PAFI Design, we help homeowners, renters, and homebuyers bring clarity, beauty, and intention to their living spaces without the stress of construction.

Whether you’re settling into a new home, reimagining your current space, or exploring potential homes with your agent, we offer design solutions that are light on effort and heavy on impact.

Thoughtful Design. Strategic Insight. No Renovation Required.

Our services range from furniture layout, styling, and curated upgrades to pre-purchase space evaluations that help you negotiate better and buy smarter.

We believe great design isn’t just about how a space looks—it’s how it feels, functions, and supports your everyday life.

No mess. No pressure. Just design that makes life feel more aligned.

Our Philosophy

Design isn’t just how a space looks. It’s how it makes you feel.

We don’t believe in rigid rules or one-size-fits-all solutions.

We listen, observe, and collaborate to shape homes that feel intentional, personal, and quietly transformative, without the stress of construction or renovation.

Design can be light, elegant, and life-enhancing.

Every offering is grounded in our belief that small, strategic moves can have a long-lasting impact.

Our Core Design Touches

Our approach blends strategy with artistry. Each design touch, whether subtle or bold, is chosen to elevate your space and support your lifestyle.

Vision & Strategy

Rooted in big-picture thinking and a refined eye, our work starts with understanding the client’s style and story—and then shaping a cohesive vision that feels both personal and elevated.

Refined Spaces

We specialize in small moves with big impact—from rearranging existing pieces to introducing just-right accents, always honoring the client’s budget, needs, and lifestyle.

Styling with Intent

Each space is styled with a curated blend of textures, tones, and layers—resulting in sophisticated, cozy, polished, and livable interiors.

Details & Layers

We bring thoughtful layers—art, lighting, objects—that tell a story and complete the atmosphere. No detail is too small when it comes to creating a sense of place.

Our Design Process

Every home has a narrative, deeply personal, empowering, and reflective of how you live & who you are.

At PAFI Design, we transform spaces through layout and flow updates, thoughtful styling, and curated details, never demolition.

We balance function, proportion, color, and texture, layered with light, art, and atmosphere.

Our goal is to translate your vision into a home that feels refreshed, grounded, and deeply personal.

We believe design is not just about aesthetics, it’s about crafting spaces that support how you live and express who you are.

Our approach is flexible and collaborative, rooted in listening and guiding you toward a home that tells your story.

Client Testimonials

  • Teaming up with a Star

    “Working with Pavlina was like teaming up with a star. She guided me through the early stages of redesigning my home, starting with the basement and creating a media–podcast room that felt completely in sync with my lifestyle. From the beginning, she listened, understood the vision, and returned with a concept that was both elevated and grounded. The process was thoughtful, collaborative, and seamless. Pavlina has a real eye—and working with her is a pleasure.”

    Tony H., Vinings GA

  • Nailed the Vibe

    “Pavlina led the entire process from scouting the apartment to designing the space to match my lifestyle. Even though I couldn’t attend the viewings, I trusted her instincts, and she nailed it. She pulled together the furniture, the artwork, the whole vibe. The energy in the space just feels right—calm, stylish, and completely me. I’d recommend her to anyone who wants a space that’s not just well-designed, but truly personal.”

    Pape D., Buckhead Atlanta GA

  • Calm, Modern & Functional

    “Pavlina was our interior designer in the summer of 2024, and she did an amazing job transforming our bedroom and kitchen. She selected a beautiful color palette that feels both calming and modern, and her layout improvements made both spaces far more functional. I love how the bedroom feels brighter, cozier, and more contemporary with just a few thoughtful touches, and the kitchen is now both stylish and practical for everyday life. We highly recommend her creative vision and professionalism.”

    Irina Z., Bulgaria

  • Fresh, Stylish & Resonable

    “I bought a smaller house just before Christmas 2024 and needed to reorganize my existing furniture quickly for the holidays. Pavlina helped me plan the space perfectly and created a home that feels both cozy and functional. She skillfully incorporated all my cherished pieces and suggested a few new items that fit beautifully, without exceeding my budget. I’m so glad I followed her advice. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for great flow, functionality, and a fresh, stylish look at a reasonable price.”

    Allan J, Denmark

FAQ

Need-to-Knows

Here are some of the most common questions we hear. If you’re wondering about something we haven’t covered, just let us know. We’re happy to discuss it.

Starting a design project should feel exciting, not overwhelming.

  • We start with a Design Discovery Session, a collaborative conversation, either in person or virtual, designed to explore your needs, ideas, and the vision for your space.

    During this session, we’ll walk through what’s working, what’s not, and what’s possible. You’ll leave with clarity, direction, and a personalized strategy, whether you choose to move forward with us or take the ideas and run with them.

  • Not at all. We often begin with just one room, a part of a house, an apartment, or even a pied-à-terre. Whether it's a bedroom that feels unfinished, a living area that’s not quite working, or a dining space needing more soul, thoughtful design can bring out its full potential.

    Small projects often spark the biggest transformation, making your space feel intentional, welcoming, and entirely yours.

  • Our pricing is based on time, expertise, and the unique needs of each client. This is a consulting service focused on organizing the flow of the space and capturing the personality of the people living in it—not just purchasing things. It’s about designing with purpose, clarity, and intention.

    We offer a tiered structure that includes everything from strategic conversations to detailed design steps. Whether you’re looking for DIY direction or full support, we adapt to your goals, budget, and level of involvement.

    Some services are flat-fee (like our Discovery Session), others are hourly or offered as half-day and full-day sessions. The goal is to give you transparency and flexibility, so you know the cost of services upfront and can make decisions with confidence.

  • That depends on the scope and how involved you’d like us to be. Discovery Sessions are completed in a single meeting, while Styling, sourcing, and full-room transformations may take several days or weeks depending on complexity.

    The process is designed to be flexible, thoughtful, and collaborative, pacing with your timeline while maintaining just enough momentum to bring the vision to life with clarity, intention, and elegance.

  • Yes! Many of our services—including consultations, sourcing, and design guidance—can be done virtually. We’ll walk through your space on video, share screens, and provide everything you need to move forward with confidence.

  • Not at all. Discovering your style is part of the journey.
    We’ll help you articulate what feels right through thoughtful questions, inspiring references, and curated suggestions, so you can confidently make decisions that reflect who you are and how you live.

  • We focus on interior design, styling, and sourcing, particularly for residential refreshes. If you're planning a full renovation, we can step in as your design advisor or client representative: helping you clarify your vision and guiding you through the process in collaboration with your contractor or interior design team.
