Theodora Melnik is a digital creator from Berlin with a passion for vintage interior design that she shares with her more than 178K Instagram followers. Although she studied a degree in history and began working as a copywriter, she had always been drawn to interior design, constantly remodeling and redesigning her home in her spare time. What started as a hobby eventually blossomed into a full-blown career. Over the years, her work has been featured in publications such as AD Germany, Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, and Glamour.

Interior design allows her to channel her creativity and make clients' dream spaces come true by translating their needs and values into the perfect furnishings. Sometimes all it takes to develop a tailored design concept is some spur-of-the-moment decisions, while other times, it requires months of planning and meticulous preparation. The unique style provided by retro decor isn't the only thing that attracts Theodora to vintage design, she also values its inherent virtues, including sustainability.
