Hélène Yüksel, the founder of Héyu Studio, is a creative visionary whose diverse background plays a pivotal role in shaping the studio’s distinct approach to interior design. With a rich blend of French, Turkish, and Swiss heritage, Hélène brings a multicultural perspective that informs her design philosophy. She holds a solid foundation in graphic design and fashion, disciplines that have honed her keen eye for aesthetics, form, and visual storytelling.

Her early career in graphic design allowed her to develop a sharp sense of color, composition, and visual communication, skills that seamlessly translate into her interior design work. The transition to fashion further deepened her understanding of textures, patterns, and the emotional resonance that materials and design choices can evoke. These disciplines not only provide Hélène with a unique ability to curate spaces but also allow her to approach each project with a narrative-driven perspective.

Hélène’s cultural background, combining the elegance of French design sensibilities, the boldness of Turkish artistry, and the meticulousness of Swiss craftsmanship, adds a unique depth to her designs. Her experiences living and working in diverse environments inform a refined yet eclectic style that is both sophisticated and globally aware. This multi-faceted influence gives Héyu Studio’s interiors a distinctive edge, blending modern elegance with a personal touch and a deep respect for cultural narratives.
