We recently connected with Camila Battiato and have shared our conversation below.

Camila, appreciate you joining us today. Can you talk to us about how you learned to do what you do?

I learned a great deal while studying architecture in college, developing essential skills like multitasking, mastering design software, and efficiently creating designs. Architecture is a highly technical field, but it also involves creativity in problem-solving and spatial design. Later, studying interior design allowed me to dive deeper into more specialized aspects, focusing more on creativity within interiors and understanding how architectural elements shape interior spaces.

Looking back, I wouldn’t necessarily change my learning trajectory, but studying architecture and interior design simultaneously could have been a great approach to integrating both disciplines earlier. One of the biggest challenges was the demanding nature of architecture school, many don’t realize how intense it is, often requiring sleepless nights to meet deadlines. However, through that experience, I learned how to manage my time effectively, ensuring that I now work productively within a balanced schedule.

Camila, love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?

I’m an architect and interior designer with over eight years of experience, and my journey in design has been one of both creativity and structure. I started my career in architecture, learning the technical side of design, but over time, I realized my true passion was in interior spaces, the way textures, colors, and furniture come together to create an experience. That led me to study interior design, where I could dive deeper into how architecture influences the interior environment and how to bring a creative vision to life.

My style blends transitional with rustic and modern, while adding a hint of cottage and classic charm. I aim to create spaces that feel timeless, inviting, and full of character, balancing beauty with practicality. Whether it’s a single room or an entire home, I take a holistic approach to design, considering both architectural details and the interior elements that make a space truly special.

What sets me apart is my ability to combine technical precision with creativity in interior design. I have a strong understanding of how to interpret layouts and floor plans, transforming them into functional spaces that are both practical and visually appealing. I take pride in my ability to listen to clients’ wants, offering them solutions that reflect their personality and style.

What I’m most proud of is the ability to turn a client’s vision into a finished product that exceeds their expectations. For anyone getting to know my work, I want them to see that I’m all about making spaces that are as functional as they are beautiful. Designs that stand the test of time and make everyday life feel special.

We’d love to hear about how you keep in touch with clients.

I maintain clear and consistent communication with my clients, keeping them updated through email, calls, and video meetings. I ensure their needs are met, build trust, and foster strong relationships by actively listening and being responsive.

After project completion, I follow up to check how they’re enjoying the space and offer additional support. I also stay engaged through social media, sharing project highlights and design tips to keep clients connected with my work. This personalized approach helps build long-term relationships and brand loyalty.

For you, what’s the most rewarding aspect of being a creative?

The most rewarding aspect of being creative is seeing how my designs truly impact my client’s lives. I love it when clients are surprised by the final result and tell me, “I never would have thought to do something like this on my own.” It’s such a fulfilling moment to know that I’ve brought something new to the table, something that reflects their personality and enhances their space in ways they hadn’t imagined.

The creative process itself is also incredibly rewarding. Every project presents new challenges, and finding unique solutions that resonate with my clients keeps me inspired and passionate about what I do.
