DESIGNER

StudioDanielK

Born in Poland in 1993, Daniel Kolodziejczak is a designer based in Milan. He studied in Denmark, Amsterdam, and London before founding StudioDanielK in 2023 with Diana Arce, a specialist in business design and innovation. Their shared passion for exploring uncharted territories and diverse cultures has shaped their pursuit of a timeless and universal aesthetic.

With 8 years of experience as a jewelry designer in Paris and Milan, Daniel continues to explore his mastery of stonework through StudioDanielK. The studio’s creations span furniture, lighting, and interior projects, drawing inspiration from the natural world and the principles of architecture. By blending the precision of geometric forms with the organic intricacy of marble and wood, Daniel’s work reflects an eclectic aesthetic rooted in art, travel, and nature.

"My years in jewelry taught me to express ideas through stones—their colors, transparencies, and emotions. That approach translates naturally to furniture, where textures, materials, and finishes carry the narrative of the collection."

StudioDanielK debuted its first collection during Alcova in 2024, receiving significant attention from international press, including AD, Vogue, and Elle Decor. The collection’s innovative approach to treating furniture as jewelry captivated interior designers and prominent galleries alike.

A few months later, new additions to the Joia collection were unveiled at Collectible New York. These included stunning cabinets and unique pieces crafted from cast bronze and precious stones, expanding upon the success of the studio’s signature Joia Lamps. The collection represents a refined evolution of the studio’s signature style, showcasing one-of-a-kind designs that balance bold materials with timeless elegance.
