✨ INTERIOR DESIGNER SPECIALIZING IN AIRBNB & SHORT-TERM RENTALS (STR) ✨ Hi! I’m Daniela, a Mexican Architect and Interior Designer with 10+ years of experience creating beautiful, functional, and thoughtfully designed spaces. 🇲🇽 Mexican designer | 🇩🇴 Currently based in the Dominican Republic | 🌎 Working remotely worldwide Today, a large part of my work is focused on Airbnb and Short-Term Rental (STR) properties, helping property owners, investors, and STR teams transform their spaces into memorable, guest-ready interiors. My main clients are based in the United States, Mexico, and Congo, and I’m experienced in managing interior design projects completely remotely—from the initial concept and space planning to furniture sourcing, visual presentations, renders, and final implementation guidance. ✨ SHORT-TERM RENTAL & AIRBNB DESIGN Designing a successful STR is different from designing a traditional home. It requires finding the right balance between aesthetics, guest experience, functionality, durability, budget, and marketability. My goal is to create spaces that photograph beautifully, stand out from competing listings, and still make sense from an investment and operational perspective. Depending on your project, I can help with: ✔ Airbnb & Short-Term Rental interior design ✔ Full-property design concepts ✔ Furniture, Fixtures & Equipment (FF&E) sourcing ✔ Furniture and décor specification ✔ Moodboards & design direction ✔ Space planning & 2D layouts ✔ Photorealistic and AI-assisted renders ✔ Kitchen, bathroom & closet design ✔ Paint, finishes & material selections ✔ Amenity spaces, game rooms & entertainment areas ✔ Outdoor areas ✔ Shopping lists with product links ✔ Design presentations & installation guidance ✔ Remote project coordination ✨ 10+ YEARS OF INTERIOR DESIGN EXPERIENCE Before specializing more heavily in residential and STR projects, I began my career in the luxury furniture industry, working with renowned Italian furniture brands and high-end residential clients. That experience shaped the way I design today: I believe a space can feel elevated and intentional without overspending. Good design is about knowing where to invest, where to save, and how to bring everything together cohesively. Whether we’re furnishing an entire Airbnb, refreshing an existing rental, designing a kitchen, or creating a standout game room or amenity space, I approach every project with the same goal: to make the design process clear, collaborative, efficient, and enjoyable. ✨ TOOLS & SOFTWARE AutoCAD | SketchUp | 3Ds Max | Coohom | Spoak | Canva | Photoshop | Winner Compusoft | Google Workspace | Adobe Acrobat | Microsoft Office | Monday | Notion 🌎 REMOTE & INTERNATIONAL PROJECTS I’m Mexican and currently based in the Dominican Republic, working remotely with clients and teams internationally. My primary markets currently include the United States, Mexico, and Congo.
