Parwin Shunbuli is a gifted interior decorator whose journey from Kabul to Canada has shaped her unique perspective on design, blending cultural influences with contemporary elegance. Born and raised amidst the rich tapestry of Afghanistan's capital, Parwin's early years were imbued with the vibrant colours, intricate patterns, and timeless traditions of her homeland. In 2001, amidst the tumultuous political landscape of Afghanistan, Parwin and her family made the courageous decision to seek refuge in Canada, where they could build a new life free from conflict and uncertainty. The transition to a new country brought its challenges, but it also ignited Parwin's passion for design as she found solace and inspiration in the diversity and creativity of her new surroundings. 

Beyond her role as a designer, Parwin is a passionate advocate for cultural exchange and understanding, using her platform to promote diversity and inclusion within the design industry. She believes that by embracing our differences and celebrating our shared humanity, we can create spaces that transcend boundaries and unite us in our common humanity. Parwin's portfolio boasts a diverse range of projects, from luxurious penthouses overlooking sprawling cityscapes to cozy countryside retreats nestled amidst nature's embrace. Her ability to tailor each design to suit the client's lifestyle and preferences sets her apart in a competitive industry, earning her the trust and admiration of discerning clientele. 

As Parwin continues to push the boundaries of creativity and innovation in the world of interior design, she remains guided by her values of integrity, authenticity, and compassion. With each project, she strives to create spaces that not only inspire and delight but also uplift the human spirit and celebrate the beauty of diversity. In Parwin's hands, design becomes a powerful tool for transformation, connecting people across cultures in a shared journey of creativity and discovery. Parwin Shunbuli is not just a talented interior decorator but also a devoted wife and loving mother. Married to a caring husband, she embraces the joys and challenges of family life with grace and resilience. Together with her husband, Parwin navigates the intricacies of marriage, finding strength and support in their shared commitment to each other and their family.
