Online Student Showcase 2025

Throughout my projects as a student have been based entirely around designing for the cause as well as the end-user. This design philosophy has guided my interior design work in way that accommodates for all as I prioritize the needs for all in ways possible. This design method has taught me that design is about more than just the aesthetics of it but rather, the character, story and need that goes beyond. I would like to think that my designs resemble just that, and hope that it inspires future designers too.

As an interior designer, I see design as more than just the arrangement of space—it is the art of storytelling through form, material, and emotion. My goal as a designer is to shape environments that inspire connection—between people, nature, and the spaces they inhabit. I thrive in creative, fast-paced environments and aim to design not just spaces, but experiences that enrich daily life and stand the test of time.

Hello, I am Dariel Tungulu, an interior designer driven by a deep passion for creating timeless, emotionally resonant spaces. I believe that design is a portal to timeless beauty, a dialogue between past and present where every element, from light to material, carries meaning. My style reflects modern elegance rooted in heritage, and my approach blends deep attention to detail with a curated, fashion-inspired sensibility, translating stories and identities into refined spatial experiences, crafting spaces that are both structured and soulful.

My name is Tshegofatso Halata, an interior designer who is truly passionate about both design and the people who experience it. I aim to rethink the hurried, convenience-focused lifestyles we often live. For me, design goes beyond aesthetics; it’s about crafting spaces filled with intention and significance, where each decision reflects meaning and every element is thoughtfully considered.

Interior design has been a passion of mine for as long as I can remember, and I’m excited to build a career in this field. I’m eager to learn through real-world experience and to contribute creatively to every stage of the design process. I enjoy the traditional side of design, especially hand sketching, as it allows me to explore ideas freely and connect more deeply with my concepts. My interests include hospitality, commercial, and residential design, where I aim to create thoughtful and engaging spaces.

I am an Interior Design student hoping to showcase my work to the best of my ability and make a mark in the industry I'm entering.

I am a creative visionary who prides herself on fulfilling the dreams of my clients for their interior spaces by creating desired experiences. I am able to produce designs that meet my clients’ desires by being attentive and empathetic. I strive constantly towards learning from every project and taking each interaction as a learning experience to improve my skills and broaden my horizons as an interior designer.

Hospitality design has always been where creativity and experience meet, and it’s something I’m passionate about. I’m inspired by how thoughtful design shapes the way people feel, and nature often guides the textures, materials, and atmospheres I create. My goal is to craft spaces that are authentic, welcoming, and connected to their surroundings. As a student, I’m excited to work on real-world projects, see ideas come to life, and continue developing my design voice while contributing to meaningful hospitality spaces.

I’m Katlego Ntaopane, an interior designer passionate about creating spaces that hold meaning and purpose. For me, design is not just about how a space looks but how it makes people feel and what they get to experience within it. I believe that every environment should tell a story that connects people to comfort, function, and emotion. Sustainability is also at the heart of my design philosophy; I deeply care about the earth and strive to integrate green design principles that respect and preserve our natural world while shaping beautiful, thoughtful interiors.

I am an enthusiastic and creative person, who is always willing to learn and grow. I love designing different spaces to be as inclusive as possible. My designs are unique because I try to design each space around the client's needs rather than just designing a space that the client needs to work around within. I love using natural materials within my designs to keep my designs connected to nature which binds us all together.

I love designing spaces that spark the same sense of wonder I feel during the creative process. For me, design is about finding that sweet spot between beauty and functionality—creating places that look great and feel meaningful. I’m always pushing myself to try new things, step outside my comfort zone, and keep learning. That drive motivates me to keep exploring, experimenting, and growing as a designer.

I’m an interior designer who transforms spaces into personalised stories, balancing bold creativity with practical elegance. I thrive on turning your vision into a vibrant, functional reality where style meets comfort. With a keen eye for detail and a passion for innovative design, I create environments that inspire and delight. Every project is an exciting journey.

I am Tshegofatso Mothibantwa, a passionate and dedicated interior designer. As someone who grew up from a female-dominated family, I learned the power of nurture, resilience, determination, and compassion at an early age, and these values have shaped my approach as a designer. I see every space as an opportunity to tell a story and evoke emotion. I’m inspired by how people live, feel, and connect with their surroundings, and I aim to design spaces that reflect that human experience. For me, good design isn’t just about how a space looks but it’s about how it makes you feel.
