Circa22 Design Studio — Manhattan & Brooklyn, NY

Where luxury is quiet, effortless, and deeply personal.

Warm, considered interiors for homes across Manhattan and Brooklyn — designed around how you actually live.

Our Philosophy

Rooms built to be lived in, not performed.

Every project is a close collaboration, shaped around how you actually live. We favor timeless materials, bespoke craftsmanship, and restraint over trend — spaces that feel effortless because every decision behind them was deliberate.

Our Story

Two decades of listening to rooms.

Circa22 is led by Daria Demin — a graduate of the Fashion Institute of Technology, NCIDQ certified, with more than twenty years shaping high-end residential interiors across New York. Her work balances refined materials, bespoke craftsmanship, and a deep sense of ease.

She still starts every project the same way: standing in the empty room, listening to what it wants to become.

Client Words
“Daria worked tirelessly to increase the functionality, appeal and overall value of our apartment — and was a real pleasure to work with.”
Mali M.
“Terrific to work with from beginning to end. She transformed my Manhattan apartment into a beautiful space that totally fits my style.”
Milana V.
“Thank you so much Circa22 for holding my hand from start to finish through what would have been a complicated journey otherwise.”
Daniel B.
“Daria did an excellent job designing my home. She was very creative, positive, and professional throughout.”
Irina B.
“Circa 22 designed our master bathroom and we are very happy with the results. Daria came up with great ideas and was very accommodating throughout the project. After a few months, the shower hardware started to malfunction and Daria, together with her assistant Jacky, took care of it, having the manufacturer replace it with a new one, at no cost to us. Circa 22 is a solid business all around.”
Ramon Estevanell
“We had a great experience working with Daria. She was creative and meticulous in coming up with a great design which fit our needs to modernize our apartment while keeping within our budget. She was also a real pleasure to work with and was highly professional.”
Alina Sweret
“Daria was amazing, calculated every linear foot of shelves and drawers, and came up with a design solution. She was patient, easy to communicate with, and had so many great ideas. I couldn't be happier with the result. We love our home!”
