Golden Inside

Golden Inside — architecture and interiors

Spaces designed from the inside out.

A studio led by Miguel Pinto, dedicated to homes and spaces that start from how they're lived in, not the effect they produce.

About the studio

Golden Inside designs from the inside: how the light enters in the morning, how a hallway is crossed in silence, where the family gathers without being invited to.

Every project begins with a long period of listening to the place and to the people who will live in it, before any decision about form.

How we work

  1. Listening

    The project begins by understanding how the space will actually be lived in, not by what looks good in a photograph.

  2. Design

    Every decision about form, material and light is justified by the experience of the people who inhabit the space.

  3. Guidance

    Miguel Pinto follows the project from design through to build, with close but deliberately limited involvement.
