Inspiration Tales is the result of Maria’s vision to create a shop for children and interiors that becomes the inspiration for the design of your space. True, brilliant, talented design, based on two major concepts: geometry and aesthetics.

When Maria became a mother of two girls, she decided to pursue her passion for design and decoration, combine her studies and professional experience as a civil engineer – interior architect and founded her online boutique in 2018. All these surrounded by the biggest love of her life, little children and their tiny world!

Her dream was magnified by going for the next step and opening her physical boutique in Horgen by the end of 2022. A boutique with a unique collection of objects, each with its own inspirational story to tell. At Inspiration Tales you can design, create, and decorate a complete baby or children's room with the help of Maria, discover everything you will need for your child’s everyday life, for their school and for their joyful moments. At Inspiration Tales you can choose furniture pieces as well, that can set the tone and style of your complete interior, always with Maria’s professional advice.

Here's what you will find at Inspiration tales:

Design furniture • School bags • Deco • Toys • Gifts • Nursery • Interior design services

Something from the past… what I was writing when the online shop was started….

IT ALL STARTED WHEn…

Zürich, September, 2018

Inspiration tales started as Maria’s blog in 2015

The idea for the blog came to my mind in the summer of 2014, when the reason for my existence starting growing inside me, my little Nefeli! Thoughts, ideas; some of which could take shape, but others would just remain there… inside my brain… but why? Daily rhythm that does not allow you materialise all your thoughts! And does this mean that all this will get lost?? Absolutely not!

Reading the “Forwards from forthcoming books” (1989) from Aris Konstantinidis, the ideas that did not become actions, material, building must become a book… so that they stay forever… there has to be thus a beginning… and a proper beginning will take place unfolding at first the “very artist”… in particular his own “Vessels of life”, namely (according to the aforementioned) his own home! Therefore, my home, my life, my tales ♥ 

Now is the time for Inspiration Tales to spread its wings and offer its inspirations and creations to you, which can include propositions for your place and hand-picked objects from my shop.

Inspiration tales is an Interior Design online boutique. We offer interior design consulting in combination with a shop of handpicked elements for the interior and the kids. For Inspiration tales the quality and the beauty of its products is essential and it always wants to collaborate with exceptional brands.

Looking forward to meeting you and finding together the most inspirative solutions that fit your needs!

Yours truly,

Maria Klapsaki
