About Us

IO Design is an international architecture and interior design studio with offices in Dubai and New York, founded in 2018 by architect Ivan Ogienko.


Our approach draws on four markets: Europe’s respect for timeless design, Dubai’s speed and execution, Ukraine’s engineering discipline, and the United States’ ability to think at scale—building environments for ambitious, growing businesses.


Today we work with developers, hospitality brands, wellness operators, retailers, restaurants, corporate offices and investors across the UAE, the US and beyond. Our role goes beyond designing interiors: we study how each business operates, find opportunities for growth, and create spaces that strengthen the brand, improve customer experience and support long-term success.

VIDA Dubai Mall

Total area: 1506 ft²

Custom cabinetry, illuminated panels and mirrored surfaces transform the entrance and visually expand the space. Beyond, nearly 1506 sq ft of connected living and kitchen areas balance entertaining with everyday function. Natural wood, linen, veined stone and sage accents create a calm, harmonious interior.

CITY WALK

Total area: 1539 ft²

A bold, personal interior with vintage character, delivered turnkey in four months. Custom furniture, a redesigned kitchen with a marble island, a new walk-in wardrobe and integrated bedroom storage improved both individuality and everyday function, creating a home shaped around the client’s lifestyle.

One Za'abeel

Total area: 1722 ft²

This ultra-luxury Dubai penthouse was designed as a refined, private home for a young client. An open-plan living and dining area maximizes panoramic city views and natural light, while the primary suite with a walk-in wardrobe creates a more intimate retreat.


Radial surfaces and sculptural lighting give the interior a fluid architectural character. Natural wood veneer, handcrafted bas-reliefs, parquet, travertine, stone and metal add depth through contrasting textures. Italian furniture and custom details complete a cohesive interior that feels sophisticated, distinctive and highly personal.

Total area: 3000 ft²

Burj Vista Unit

A light-filled apartment organized around panoramic city views. Three connected living zones support cooking, relaxing and entertaining, while custom storage maximizes functionality across four bedrooms. Warm wood, green-veined stone and coordinated textiles create a sophisticated, harmonious modern-classic interior.

Total area: 5920 ft²

Kempinski The Creek

A dramatic double-height space with 21 ft ceilings became the heart of this reimagined duplex. A new kitchen, staircase and family library improve flow and functionality, while dark wood, stone and sculptural lighting emphasize its exceptional proportions and refined Contemporary Modern character.
