Milola Meets – Renata Koglin, a Pioneer of Neuro-Architecture and Biophilic Design in Switzerland

At Milola, we believe that design goes beyond aesthetics. It tells a story, evokes emotion, and reveals deep purpose. That’s the spirit behind our latest "Milola Meets" feature with Renata Koglin, founder of RK Interiors.

With a background in engineering and years of experience managing international projects, Renata shifted her career path to explore the psychological impact of interior spaces. She has specialized in neuro-architecture and biophilic design—two innovative and still emerging approaches in French-speaking Switzerland.

"For me, interior design is about creating spaces that tell a story, that spark authentic emotion, and that truly improve the quality of life of the people who live in them." — Renata Koglin

Design Rooted in Science and Emotion

Neuro-architecture, sitting at the crossroads of neuroscience and architecture, explores how our brain responds to built environments. Color, texture, natural light, proportions—everything is carefully considered to positively influence emotions, reduce stress, and enhance focus. Meanwhile, biophilic design reconnects humans to nature through the integration of organic elements, natural materials, and life-inspired forms.

Design that Heals as Much as It Beautifies

Based in Allaman and active throughout Switzerland, RK Interiors creates residential and commercial interiors with well-being at their core. Each project is tailored to the emotional and functional needs of the client. From urban apartments to alpine chalets, including offices and restaurants, Renata applies a holistic approach where aesthetics serve both mental and physical health.

"In Switzerland, we spend a large part of the year indoors. It’s essential to rethink our spaces so they support our balance. Nature is not a luxury—it's a fundamental need."

With remarkable attention to detail and solid technical expertise, Renata Koglin represents a new generation of designers for whom interior architecture is a powerful tool for transformation.
