An interview with Stefan and Henk, founders of Design Bespeak

We’ve tracked the effect of dopamine everywhere lately, on our screens, in our workouts, even in our wellness routines. Now it’s turning up in interiors. Dopamine décor is the container concept for a wave of visually upbeat design: saturated colour, soft shapes, tactile excess, and a whiff of nostalgia. It’s less a style than it is a shift in emotional tone. Feelings, specifically good ones, are back on the design brief.

When creativity meets the bottom line, it initiates a balancing act between imaginative vision and economic realities. This dynamic interplay shapes not only design outcomes but the sustainability of the creative practice itself.
