Hi there! I'm Carol Alda, and I'm an interior designer with a passion for creating unique and exciting spaces. Originally from Brazil, I fell in love with interior design as a teenager, and it's been my calling ever since.

​

My journey to becoming a professional designer began in 2017 when I moved to Dallas as an AuPair. While taking care of the most incredible kids, I decided to pursue my dream officially by studying interior design. It was a turning point that allowed me to refine my skills and develop my own style.

​

I believe in a "no boring, at all" policy when it comes to design. I mix elements of nature, modern, traditional, and contemporary styles with a touch of luxury and a LOT of gold. This unique blend is what sets my work apart, for sure. 

​

I started Dark&Olive, with the goal of making Dallas-Fort Worth more sophisticated and fun through distinctive interiors. I'm here to collaborate with you and bring your design dreams to life, whether it's in your home, office, or any other space.

​

Let's work together to create beautiful, memorable interiors that reflect your personality and style. Welcome to Dark&Olive, where every space tells a one-of-a-kind story.
