Interview with Yolanda Cubo

This month at Trends Home we have had the pleasure of interviewing designer Yolanda Cubo, a professional who has always had a passion for the world of interior design

Yolanda Cubo studied design in Palma de Mallorca and defines herself as an art lover and a tireless traveler. These characteristics have led her to have a style of her own that is in continuous evolution; we could say that it is a style "parisian chic"with a Mediterranean flair.

Yolanda's professional career has included co-founding a studio, being responsible for brand styling and marketing and collaborating with prestigious international studios

"For each project to be unique and special you just have to know the people" Yolanda Cubo.

- what led you to work in the world of interior design?

- Since I was a child I always had a passion for transforming and beautifying spaces.

- what has been your favorite project so far?

- The next one ;)

- what adjectives define your style?

- Balanced eclecticism. Serene interiors with a lot of personality.

- what do you think is more important, functionality or aesthetics?

- Both. I can't conceive a good project without combining both.

- what are your favorite materials?

- Without a doubt the noble materials: wood, marble and plants. When renovating, I try to restore them whenever I can, so the house doesn't lose its original essence.

- which room do you enjoy working in the most?

- All of them because they start from an original concept that allows you to have a global vision of the whole project.

- what are your favorite decorative elements?

- The lamps. When it comes to designing, I get excited about lighting. For me it is an essential part of the house.

- what trends do you think are going to hit hard in the near future and which ones would you bet on?

- In color we continue with the millennial pink, ocher and blues. In terms of style, I'm still betting on eclecticism, but not so baroque. There is a new turn towards almost futuristic minimalism.

- what do you usually do when you need inspiration?

- I, for example, go to as many fairs as I can. Art and travel are some of my passions that also influence me quite a bit.

- what would be your dream project?

- More than dream, the perfect project for me, is the one where the harmony with the owner is so great that his house perfectly reflects his personality.

- And finally, what are your favorite pieces from Trends Home?

- Origami desk from Ethnicraft, the Nordic style furniture designed by your interior designer Mikel and the textiles.

YOLANDA CUBO'S DECORATIVE TIPS OR TRICKS:

1. Use white and neutral colors as a base, then you can always add some color to give personality to the room.
2. Plants always give a lot of life and brighten up any corner.
3. Use trends with certain permeability, adapting them to each project, so the result will be unique
4. Less is more. When in doubt, always. It is my Leitmotiv
5. When thinking about the distribution of furniture, go for symmetry, the result will always be balanced.
