Petra Arko

Petra Arko is a visionary interior designer whose work is defined by a deep commitment to creating spaces that are both beautiful and meaningful. With a portfolio that spans eco-resorts, co-living and co-working spaces, short-term rental apartments, hotels and restaurants, Petra brings a thoughtful and intentional approach to every project she undertakes.

Her design philosophy centres on crafting interiors that are unique, practical and built to last. Every space she creates is carefully tailored to balance user experience, aesthetic quality and functionality, all while remaining mindful of real-world constraints such as budget and long-term use.

Driven by a strong social conscience, Petra is especially passionate about social housing and believes in the power of design to uplift communities and improve lives. She is known for her authentic and collaborative process, regularly working with a network of talented designers, artists and makers from across Britain, Europe and beyond.

Petra now brings her distinctive vision and wealth of experience to Foundation, where she leads the company’s design direction with a focus on creating transformative interiors that serve people and purpose.
