About us

Founded in 2004 by twin sisters Irina and Olga Sundukovy, S+S Interior Design & Architecture Studio for 21 years have been reshaping how people eat, sleep, flirt and celebrate around the world. From London to Bangkok, from Dubai to New York, the studio creates spaces that become destinations – places where stories happen and guests always want to return.

With a team of 100 creatives, S+S delivers award-winning interiors for luxury and lifestyle hotels, restaurants, bars, spas and private residences. The sisters call their approach “Luxury Punk™” – a philosophy of refined rebellion, where contradiction becomes a design tool.

Headquartered in the UAE and Cyprus, with representatives in London, Paris and New York, S+S operates as a truly international studio with completed projects across Europe, the Middle East, Asia, the USA and beyond. This global footprint allows them to understand what different audiences seek and to design experiences that not only look stunning but perform brilliantly for owners and operators.

At the heart of every project lies storytelling. S+S doesn’t simply decorate spaces; they create narratives shaped by the guests’ desires, the cultural context and the emotional energy of a location. The studio rejects global sameness and dives into local nuance – history, subcultures, rituals, all those invisible codes that make a place feel authentic and alive. Their work always balances comfort and provocation: luxury that inspires, tempts and sparks conversation, without ever disturbing the guest.

S+S has received numerous international awards, including the prestigious AHEAD MEA Award and Gold Key Award for Designer of the Year. Their spaces generate headlines, queues, emotions and revenue.

They often say: “We don’t design restaurants. We design desire. We engineer emotions.” And after two decades at the forefront of hospitality, one thing is clear: S+S doesn’t follow trends – they create places that make people fall in love, again and again.
