Moments
Where interiors meet fashion: an editorial project that turns spaces into living moments.
ABOUT
fifth place is more than a name — it’s a layered tribute to the places, philosophies, and personal touch that shape our designs.
It nods to New York’s Fifth Avenue — the pulse of the city and home to Parsons, where our journey in design began.
A room holds three dimensions. Energy adds a fourth. The fifth? That’s our signature — a personal, emotional layer that brings soul to every space.
ABOUT
I’m Philippa A. Hasse, creative mind, entrepreneur, and founder of fifth place interiors.
I spent over a decade leading creative businesses - from leadership roles at Zalando to being Managing Director at JUNIQE. That journey shaped my ability to turn vision into structure, trends into strategy, and aesthetics into emotionally resonant experiences.
At fifth place interiors, it all comes together.
ABOUT
We design more than interiors.
We create emotional landscapes.
Spaces that inspire, feel deeply personal, and elevate the everyday into something unforgettable.
Every room should live with you, grow with you — designed to be lived in, and remembered.
design principles
We build from what already exists, honoring the soul of a space, or start from scratch to shape something entirely new.
We work with intuition and structure to shape spaces that are both emotionally resonant and visually striking.
Curated
We believe in the power of discovery. Sourcing vintage pieces, rare finds, and tailor-made details to craft something truly personal.
Elevated
Our work is defined by craftsmanship and clarity. Quality materials, high-end finishes, and timeless design choices that elevate daily living.
Remembered
We don’t decorate. We tell stories. We embrace bravery in form, color, and concept, always rooted in elegance. We design with audacity and emotion, crafting interiors that linger in memory and stir the senses.
Personal
Our spaces are never generic. They reflect the identity, memories, and ambitions of those who inhabit them. We design interiors that are distinct, character-rich, and unapologetically personal.
Layered
We believe that beauty lies in contrast and composition. Through bold material mixes, textures, and eras, we create immersive spaces that feel rich, complex, and alive - never cluttered, always intentional.
