Who We Are
BORING STUDIO is a multidisciplinary design practice based in Lisbon (Cascais), Portugal. The name "BORING" fuses our surnames BOTTI + HERING and carries a deliberate irony: Our work is anything but.
Julian Botti
The visionary, drafting innovative concepts and setting the creative guidelines.
Carolina Hering
The architecture brain, crafting the actual pieces and spaces to the very last detail.
Our Principles
Integrated Thinking
We connect disciplines early—so that brand, product, and space evolve together, not in isolation.
Founder Proximity
We work closely with decision-makers, often functioning as an embedded creative partner.
Scalability & Longevity
Design systems are created with scale, adaptability, and operational clarity in mind.
Our BORING Brain
We don't blindly execute, we collaborate – Only together we can correctly comprehend, adapt and complement, becoming holistic and perspicacious.
