Studio Base

Studio RB is a women-owned, full-service interior architecture and design studio based in New York City, co-founded in 2020 by Gal Vaknin-Raz and Evgeny Bogomolov. We bring award-winning design thinking to restaurants and bars, private residences, and commercial spaces — with the precision of a large firm and the personal attention of a boutique practice.

We don't impose a house style. We listen first — to who you are, how you want to feel in a space, and what the design needs to accomplish beyond the aesthetic. From that, we find the story that is uniquely yours and build every decision around it. The result is always a space that feels singular, considered, and entirely your own.

From first sketch to final walkthrough, Studio RB handles every element of the process — space planning and architectural rendering, material and FF&E selection, brand integration, and full project management. Our work has earned recognition from the Bar & Restaurant Expo and Shop! OMA Awards, and has been featured in Forbes, NEWH, and KBB Online. We design for clients who take quality seriously. We take that trust seriously in return.

"Every room is a conversation between the people who will live in it and the materials that will hold them."
