About Us
A founder-led international design atelier.
KRD STUDIO is an interior and furniture design studio based in Hamburg, creating bespoke environments across private residences, yachts, hospitality and aviation.
Founded by Katharina Raczek, the studio combines creative vision, technical understanding and personal dedication. Drawing on more than two decades of experience, Katharina has developed a multidisciplinary approach that brings together design, craftsmanship and technical expertise.
Today, KRD STUDIO collaborates with private clients, brands, developers and shipyards worldwide. Whether on land, at sea or in the sky, every project is guided by a commitment to timeless design, exceptional materiality and spaces that feel deeply personal.
Beyond aesthetics
We believe that lasting design is rooted in understanding the people who inhabit a space. Rather than imposing a signature style, we create interiors shaped by architecture, context and the individuality of each client.
Materiality, craftsmanship and light guide every decision, while thoughtful planning and technical precision ensure that every detail contributes to the overall experience.
Trusted guidance from concept to completion
Every project is unique, yet all benefit from the same principles:
Personal involvement
Open communication
Meticulous attention to detail
Commitment to quality
Reliable project leadership
A collaborative network
Every project is shaped by its unique ambitions, requirements and context. From concept to completion, KRD STUDIO brings together design expertise with a carefully selected network of architects, shipyards, consultants, manufacturers and craftspeople.
This collaborative approach allows us to assemble the right expertise for every commission – thoughtful, flexible and uncompromising in quality.
Recognition
Our work has been recognised through international publications, industry awards and collaborations with leading partners across the fields of residential, maritime and bespoke design.
While recognition is never the goal, we value the opportunity to contribute to conversations about design, craftsmanship and innovation – and are grateful that our work continues to be featured within the international design community.

Great design begins with understanding.
