furniture
Elisa collaborates with Model No., a cutting-edge 3D-printed furniture company in Oakland, California, to merge technology and traditional craftsmanship.
One design is a 16-person dining table, featuring a reclaimed oak hardwood top and a 3D printed base, balancing aesthetics and functionality with sustainability. Another piece is a 60" diameter round coffee table with a perforated reclaimed oak top that allows light to pass through, applying her fascination with light and shadow to the design. This piece, combined with a simple square base, reflects Elisa's passion for organic and geometric forms.
For the wine cave entry bench, Elisa collaborated with Forestree Collective in Sebastopol, California, to design and craft this unique piece using wood from a fallen madrone tree on the property. The design draws inspiration from the tree’s natural, fluid form. Finished with a wax/oil treatment, the bench measures approximately 14 feet in length. Its curved, carved structure features a gently concave top and rounded edges, creating a soft yet striking sculptural piece that adds both warmth and significance to the space.
In these collaborations, Elisa prioritizes the use of sustainable techniques, making them central to her approach to furniture design.
textiles
Elisa Pitashny Design collaborates with Arudeko to create an exquisite collection of pillows crafted from 100% wool dyed with natural pigments, hand-spun and woven on traditional pedal looms. Each piece is ethically handcrafted in Oaxaca, Mexico, following sustainable principles.
In her collection, Elisa selects the geometric shape of the circle to symbolize unity and continuity, celebrating the preservation of ancient weaving techniques. This design choice honors the rich tradition of master weavers while embracing the ever-evolving nature of contemporary design.

philosophy
Elisa designs with a rare intuition. Interior Design is about more than aesthetics, it's about creating spaces that help people feel truly at home and at ease. Every detail is thoughtfully chosen to offer comfort, clarity, and purpose. Inspired by a childhood experience of the chaos in her grandmother’s home after her passing, Elisa’s designs focus on eliminating visual clutter and bringing peace and harmony into each space.
style
Elisa Pitashny Design carefully selects elements with intention, favoring earthy tones and natural textures. A neutral palette creates an elegant backdrop, while natural wood, metals, ceramics, stone, and textiles add warmth and simplicity. The result is an environment that promotes calm and mindful living.
