Aoife McCaul
Junior Interior Designer
Hiya, I'm Aoife! I'm a junior designer at Noya Design Studio. I studied interior design at Pratt Institute in New York and received my master's degree from the Glasgow School of Art. As a designer, I listen closely to client wants & needs and translate them seamlessly into reality, as each client deserves a well considered environment to call home. I am detail-oriented, as I was raised with a deep respect for craftsmanship, and love collaborating as a team to dream up new spaces and bring them to life.
