Elena Khryashcheva is an architect, artist and furniture designer.
A successful designer with laconic touch, who creates outstanding items: furniture, lighting, collectible design objects. Created design items are award-winning, were published by renowned media (Architectural Digest, Elle Decoration) and selected for permanent collections of private galleries and a national museum.
Elena’s professional career began in 2015, when she graduated from the University of Hertfordshire (Interior Architecture & Design program, Bachelor of Arts). As a part of the educational process, Elena studied the influence of space on a person and his interaction with the environment. Then her focus of interest shifted to object design and the study of a three-way dialogue between a conceptual idea, its formal embodiment and the user.
In 2021 the Highlight desk has won the prestigious international Red Dot Design Award.
In 2023 Elena’s sculptural console Imperfect Beauty gained special Jury’s Mention of the Ro Plastic Prize and were presented as a finalist during Milano Design Week 2023.
Nowadays Elena is interested in experimenting with materials and creates sculptures and artistic items from plaster, cement, expanded clay, epoxy resin and other materials.
