Elena Tabakova is an interior designer in Sofia, Bulgaria. Through her studio Lenea, she aims to transform each interior into a space with character and artistic value. A strong interest in creating environments with emotional impact is what led her to establish her own practice.
Elena graduated from the National Academy of Arts with a degree in Design for Children's Environments, where she focused on product design for children's furniture and toys. Over time, her interest naturally shifted toward interior design, leading her to complete a master's degree in Interior Design for Children's Spaces. Her graduation project explored the interior design of a primary school, reflecting her early interest in creating inspiring and thoughtfully designed environments.
With over six years of professional experience, Elena has worked on residential, commercial, and public projects. She developed her skills in two interior design studios, where she focused on interior concepts and custom furniture design. This experience helped her gain a strong understanding of how to turn ideas into practical, well-executed design solutions.
Today, through Lenea, Elena brings together her education, experience, and creativity to offer clients a personal and well-considered design process.
At Lenea, every project starts with the idea that interior design is more than just furnishing a space. We aim to create complete environments that feel balanced, comfortable, and meaningful for the people who live in them. We believe that good design brings together aesthetics, functionality, and ergonomics. A well-designed interior should look beautiful, but also feel intuitive and work naturally in everyday life.
Elena's approach is guided by attention to detail and a focus on thoughtful, well-crafted and artistic spaces. She sees creativity as the core of the design process and believes that every interior should have its own character and sense of identity. Her goal is to create interiors that feel personal, timeless, and closely connected to the people they are designed for.
The studio works with a limited number of clients at a time, allowing personal attention to every project. Elena is involved in every stage - from the first meeting to the final details. Lenea's portfolio includes completed projects in Sofia, Lovech, Blagoevgrad, and other cities across Bulgaria.
