oh, hey there

i’m Martina, and I’m so glad you are here!

My goal is to help you create a sophisticated space and a beautiful life that can make every day feel just a little bit more special!

I believe beauty can truly be found in all moments and details of life, and The Chic Quota is all about creating and capturing that magic from home decor to thoughtful gift guides!

our story

how it all began

In 2021, I graduated with my masters in Switzerland and moved into my first real apartment. It was completely unfurnished, and at the age of 23, I found myself looking for affordable inspiration to turn this tiny 1-bedroom into my very own haven.

As I embarked on this journey, I fell in love with interior design and sharing my favorite ideas on the blog. Eventually, The Chic Quota became a lifestyle project that I hope can help you too create a space and life you absolutely love!
