Freelance graphic designer Katrin Stiller recently fulfilled her lifelong dream by opening this chic boutique in the centre of Hall in Tirol.

Whatever the answer, Katrin Stiller's brainchild is a delightfully playful celebration of all those small things which make life beautiful.
La vita è bella
In 2014, after years of working freelance as a graphic designer, Stiller realised her lifelong dream by opening her own interior design boutique in a 700-year-old building in the medieval old town in Hall in Tirol.

As well as a selection of high-quality decorations for all seasons and occasions, Katrin Stiller also stocks a carefully chosen range of sauces, organic herbs and herb mixtures sporting exotic names like "Buddhas Bauch" ("Buddha's Belly") and "Wilde Hilde" ("Crazy Hilde") – after all, cooking and eating is these days a key part of modern lifestyle and interior design.
