George Rino

I’m George, founder of Stylish Syndicate, a home decor blog created to share inspiring yet approachable ideas about interior and exterior design. I graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Interior Design from Trisakti University one year ago. After graduation, I decided to take a break from working professionally due to my hyperthyroid condition and focus on recovery. During this time, I realized I still needed a creative space to express my passion, ideas, and inspirations in design. That’s how Stylish Syndicate was born — a platform where I can share design knowledge in a fun, relatable, and easy-to-understand way. Through this blog, I hope to make design feel more accessible, enjoyable, and inspiring for everyone.
