Vision

Every project reflects a comprehensive interior architecture approach, led from initial concept through to final delivery. Ivory designs complete turnkey projects, where every detail is anticipated from the earliest intentions to ensure a faithful execution of the original vision.

Our mission is to oversee every step with precision, so that the delivered spaces are an exact reflection of what was imagined: coherent, mastered and perfectly accomplished projects.

Crafting exceptional spaces

Ivory is an interior architecture agency dedicated to creating singular, elegant and timeless environments. Each project is guided by a pursuit of balance between structure, materiality and light. Space is approached as a cohesive composition, where every element contributes to the harmony of the whole.

Based on the French Riviera, the agency works on private residences, contemporary villas, curated apartments, hotels, restaurants and commercial spaces. Each project is approached with the same level of precision, consistency and attention to detail.

A vision driven by precision and experience

The agency is founded and directed by Joanna Carubia, an interior architect with over 10 years of experience in high-end design and project execution.

Her approach is rooted in a precise reading of space, a constant attention to proportions and materials, and a strong commitment to consistency at every stage of the project. She develops a vision where each project becomes a singular piece, carefully designed and built to stand the test of time.

Ivory’s projects are aimed at an international clientele, sensitive to spatial precision and the quality of execution.

A signature shaped by precision, sensitivity and excellence in bespoke design.

Ivory supports a wide range of interior architecture projects:

Private Residences and Contemporary Villas

We design villas and private residences where interior architecture, comfort and elegance come together naturally. Each project is conceived to reveal the full potential of the space and create a harmonious living experience, on the French Riviera and beyond.

Distinctive Apartments

Overlooking the sea, in the heart of Nice or in the most exclusive locations on the French Riviera, we create unique apartments where every detail contributes to a refined, timeless and deeply personal atmosphere.

Real Estate Projects and Luxury Developments

We support developers, investors and project owners in the design of high-value spaces. Our approach combines architectural vision, quality of use and aesthetic excellence to enhance the long-term value of each real estate development.

Luxury Hotels and Hospitality

We create destinations that leave a lasting impression and invite escape. Each hospitality project is designed to offer a coherent, elegant and memorable experience, true to the identity of the place and the expectations of a discerning international clientele.

Restaurants and Destination Venues

We imagine spaces where the experience goes beyond what is served on the plate. Light, materials, volumes and circulation come together to shape distinctive places, designed to be experienced, shared and remembered.

High-End Commercial Spaces

We design environments that translate a brand's identity while offering clients a seamless and immersive experience. Spaces conceived to showcase identity, strengthen brand image and create a lasting connection with their clientele.

I recently worked with Ivory Interiors to renovate my apartment, and I couldn't be more delighted! The team perfectly captured my vision while adding creative touches I would never have imagined. They respected the timeline and the budget, which is rare in this industry. I highly recommend Joanna and her team to anyone looking to transform their interior with style and elegance!

She has demonstrated undeniable human qualities: teamwork, compassion, emotional intelligence and perseverance. She also knows how to lead projects in the very best way, from initial concept through to final delivery. Her strong sensibility for design and her technical expertise have been a real asset in helping us grow our business. I recommend Joanna 100%.
